Oxblood boots offer great contrast and bold details without sacrificing the rugged feel of a boot. 

If you’re looking for red in your boots, oxblood is a safe bet. More and more boot brands have started to offer this type of option in their traditional designs.

#13 Suits

Even a red suit is not off the table. The shade of red you choose for your suit depends on the occasion.

A darker shade of red will give you the most versatility. It’s flashy enough for a party and formal enough for the office– even more so if you wear them as separates. 

When to wear a bright red suit is definitely situational. It’s going to work for parties and nights out, but don’t expect it to pass muster for anything even remotely formal. 

If this is your first red suit, go for something more versatile.

#14 Ties and Pocket Squares

Little pops of red are often a good idea. Ties and pocket squares are the best way to add a splash of color. Since these accessories are small, you can go wild with bright red or patterns and not overpower your grey or navy suit.

Test out different shades of red with your go-to suited looks and don’t be afraid to go bright. 

#15 Watches and Bracelets

I’m lumping wrist accessories together for this one because they basically serve the same function here. You can wear red in the form of red beaded bracelets or red-faced watches.

Adding accessories like this to an outfit help incorporate pieces of your personality. A little red detail here goes a long way.

#16 Hats

Beanies, baseball caps and hats in general offer another red option. Again, since they’re a smaller portion of your outfit, they can add a great pop of color.

This is your chance to experiment with brighter props of color against darker or neutral colors.

How Will You Wear Red?

Red has potential. It can be a bright detail or an understated twist in your wardrobe.
