I love absolutely anything that is red, my eyes are just drawn to the color. I often stop in my tracks, to gaze at red things. Looking around my room is a plethora of things that are red. Pajama bottoms, bags, my Vivienne Westwood/Melissa shoes, dresses and scarves.
Even my makeup bag is filled with red. I have about six or seven different shades of red lipstick, my favorite being my Chanel lipstick, which sadly, I do not think they make anymore…or at least I've not been able to find it anywhere! (#74 Gladiator, if anyone wants to buy me a present)
I have the most amazing VW/Melissa shoes, that smell like cherry! I'm actually scared to wear them in case the smell disappears.
Red lingerie is absolutely stunning…but can be super tacky if you're not careful. Stick to classic silhouettes, with little detailing on the fabric. Hopeless Hotel have some incredibly beautiful, handmade lingerie in reds. Their newest collection is to die for. I want it ALL! Also, check out partner brand Hopelessly Devoted for some beautiful red accessories, namely hair bows.
I just love the colour red. And you should too!
