Purple and Red

One color combo I love right now is red and purple. It feels very fresh and fun . . . less predictable than red and blue (and besides, purple is having such a moment right now!) I borrowed this purple Chanel bag from Vivrelle and had so much fun mixing it in with other colors in my wardrobe. Yellow, aqua, and chartreuse were all winning complements, but red and purple was far and away my favorite combination.

I personally love a colorblocking moment: kick flares and a cardigan, in contrasting shades. But if that feels too bold, why not try jeans, a red polo sweater, and a purple bag or shoe? Just like with any color combo or trend, you can do a lot or a little. BTW: how fab is this Zara top that combines both colors in one piece!?

Outfit Details: Loro Piana Coat (very old, found on The RealReal a few years ago), AYR jeans (the best!), Jamie Haller Loafers, Chanel Bag (borrowed from Vivrelle!)

PS – use GRACEATWOOD for a free month of Vivrelle. It’s a great way to try new styles before you commit, or to try a fun color (like purple) that you probably wouldn’t invest in otherwise!
