Surprisingly enough, it seems like the "It" color for fall 2011 is bordeaux. At first it seems a little old and stuffy, but really getting into the offerings from designers for fall, you start to really get a sense that this old-school color is now modern.
How would I wear it? With an
Étoile Isabel Marant bicolor knit (I'm OBSESSED, with bicolor knits this fall), and a pair of
cropped bordeaux cords from
Étoile Isabel Marant as well. I like how the grey, black, and mulled wine color play off each other in a youthful way. Play it up with
patent Repetto flats in said hot color and a shiny manicure in, what else?,
Essie's Bordeaux #12.
Coolest of all? The necklace, by
Eddie Borgo. I'm in love with
Eddie Borgo...as you'll see later today.
