Trend To Try: Oxblood

Tuesday, November 22, 2016
While oxblood conjures up images of pools of blood, it's hardly that gory. In fact, oxblood is the hottest color going right now. It's a deep, rich shade of red similar to burgundy but with hints of purple and dark brown. And with the holiday season around the corner, oxblood is a welcomed departure from traditional red.

Here are a few fabulous ways to wear this trend this winter.

Thread & Supply Peacoat ($40)
I typically go for black coats, but I am loving the color of this peacoat (and the price, too!). This deep shade makes a great substitute for a black coat and would pair nicely with just about anything you are wearing.

M.A.C. Lipstick in 'Diva' ($17)
Around the holidays I love to kick up my lip color a notch. This universally appealing color works well with any skin tone. Just be sure to keep the rest of your makeup on the subtle side.

Slouchy Cashmere Beanie
 ($34)
Bad hair day? Here's your solution for turning a bad hair day into a super cute one.

Sole Society Studded Foldover Clutch ($50)
The studded detail on this clutch sold me. Although I would use it for a formal holiday occasion, it certainly is perfect for a casual night out.

TOMS Leila Booties ($139)
Skip the brown and black booties and go with this pair. The color works well with any color denim, and you can show off the tassle detail when wearing a dress or skirt.

Essie 'Spiked With Style' Gel Polish ($12)
I am totally guilty of wearing this shade of nail polish all too often. But, hey, why not? It's gorgeous!

Faux Suede Moto Pants ($75)
Getting a little sick and tired of the same old weekend outfit? Swap out your favorite jeans for these faux suede moto pants.

Sole Society Oversized Faux Leather Shopper ($65)
A must when I am out holiday shopping? A large tote. I have got to have one to stow all my stuff and I like to use it to corral all the small bags I have.

Cable Knit Scarf ($17)
If you just aren't sure about wearing this trend, a scarf is a good way to get your feet wet. At this price point, if it doesn't work out, there will be no regrets.
