Bold Red
"There is a shade of red for every woman." - Audrey Hepburn
Red is one of my favorite colors because it is very bold. Bold is beautiful. I feel bold when I wear it in my shirt, shoes, dress, lips, nail polish, or jewelry. Also many girls who are redheads seem to have strong confidence and are not afraid to show off their boldness. Feisty redhead ladies who inspire me include Emma Stone, Julia Roberts, Molly Ringwald, Judy Garland, Ginny Weasley, Bonnie Wright (who played movie Ginny Weasley), and Ariel from The Little Mermaid. It's easy to agree that red is the hottest of all primary colors, it makes such a bold statement no matter what mood you are in.
I feel even more bold after wearing my new red Miami mock neck tank from Francesca's. The first thought that popped in my brain when seeing it on the clothing rack was, "Damn, this is one bold shirt!" My thought when trying it on for the first time was, "Damn, I feel super bold in this!" Now it's one of the many pieces hanging in my closet, and I feel like an even bolder fashionista. Plus, what better way to feel more bold and chic when posing next to scarlet flowers when wearing it?!
My other favorite thing about the tank is the mock neck. I've never been a fan of wearing turtlenecks, but I love the way the collar lines around the neck. It gives a nice feminine and sophisticated touch to the look.
Another clothing material I want to point out is my new crystal necklace, also from Francesca's. I've seen many girls wearing it lately, and they look so cool. I like the mythic and magical look to it, it looks like it came out of a fantasy tale!
Also rings! Loving my new big gold rings. The jeweled line one is from Francesca's and the solid rectangle one is from Charming Charlie's. Of course, I can't forget my silver Irish Claddagh ring! Don't worry, it's not an engagement ring (sigh). It simply just states whether you are in a relationship or not. If the crowned heart is facing up, you are dating. If the crowned heart is facing down, you are single. And mine is facing down, so therefore I am not in a relationship at the moment (sigh again).
My nails are even painted a dark red to match the tone of the shirt!
What color looks fabulous with red or any other color, besides gold and silver? Black, of course! What completes a red mock neck tank in the summertime? A pair of black shorts from Ann Taylor and black wedges from Dolce Vita!
Does red make you feel bold? Or is there another color that brings out your confidence? Whatever color that may be, never be afraid to show it off because you rock it so well!
Out with the old, in with the bold!
