Brrrr! Baby, it’s cold outside…but crimson clothing and accessories are heating up this winter, according to a recent fashion forecast by The Birmingham News’ Chanda Temple.  I’ve been wearing red since I was a baby, and have become notorious in my family for busting out a red dress for formal occasions.  I’m currently in love with Plenty by Tracy Reese’s crimson lace cocktail dress at BHLDN…it’s “vintage sophisticate” done right.

Party season is almost upon us, so why not pick out something in the showstopping shade?  But consider yourself warned: put on your red dress, red stilettos, red lipstick, red jewelry and carry a red bag and people will be saying “My, my, my!” for all the wrong reasons.  So tone it down with a nude lip or a neutral shoe.
