As you may have noticed when i post clothing hauls, i have a penchant for black, so it may come as somewhat of a surprise to learn that this season i'm loving a warmer hue.
Burgundy.
Oh i love it so! The first thing i bought in this tone was the batwing sweater (top left) from vince at net-a-porter, and the Anya Hindmarch 'remedies' make-up bag, and i've gradually accumulated quite the burgundy collection, So i thought i'd put together a little collage of some pieces i'm loving, and really want to buy!
This colour is so warm, it suits the colder months perfectly, i do find it suits pinker skintones better than yellow based skins, which might suit a mustard, or chocolate colour better.
There are many variants of burgundy, the more orange/red based (top right), to the more plum based (the heels), to the deeper wine tones.
I find it works equally well with gold jewellery as it does with silver, though gold blends well, silver appears more striking. (Until recently i would only wear gold, silver was a dirty word to me!) I also love that unlike navy, burgundy works perfectly with black, so it has blended into my wardrobe seamlessly.
What is your favourite colour at the moment?
If you want to know where anything is from just let me know! :) x
