Red Wine Colored Fashion Finds for Fall

Wednesday, October 29, 2014

--By Kim Moshtaghi

As the season changes, shades of red wine will begin to dominate both the outdoor and fashion landscapes. Shades of red wine are mysterious and glamorous, and will beautifully mix with the colder season’s gloomy backdrops. Although we may see shades of grey all around us, I promise you will stand out from the gloomy weather when you wear red. Give yourself some hope and direction during the gloomy season.

This first feature is striking. This burgundy skinny pant will keep you warm and sexy. Pair with patent skinny heels, or accentuate its edgy potential and pair with boots.

When it comes to feet, it’s crucial to keep them warm. But, let’s not worry about that right now. These Kate Spade leather pumps are great work pumps that will work well with a classic business wardrobe.

This next feature is for people like myself who appreciate velvet. This sexy stiletto is unique every step of the way.

This Zara find is bold and can make any mundane work outfit feel more exciting while still looking conservative. This blouse allows you to look professional and demonstrates your capabilities for thinking outside of the box. Also, a shirt that exudes confidence will transition well into an evening plan -- pull your hair back, add some accent earrings, and you’re dressed for the occasion.

Zara Bowed Blouse

I have to admit, some of my favorite things about the upcoming months are the big holiday events. However, these holiday events also frustrate me because I have to find dresses I can wear to all these events. So, for all of you who are ill prepared, I may have found a great option for you.

This long dress isn’t boring or conservative. It’s got an Angelina Jolie slit, so this dress is probably not suitable for a work holiday party... unless you are planning on attending someone else’s company party! The deep hue keeps it elegant and subdued.
