Winter is the time to add a little colour to your everyday wardrobe to bring a little life back into your closet. If you've been thinking about adding a pop of colour to your everyday outfits, look no further than the colour red!
Red can be daunting, it's bold, bright and can't just be worn with everything—right? Wrong! Fashion experts Joe Zee and Rob Younkers say throw the fashion rule book out the window and experiment with the colour of love with these 13 pieces. From statement-makers like an all-red jacket to more subtle red accessories you can add to any outfit, we've got something for everyone. Plus, Joe and Rob shared their favourite red items for the kids to stay warm this winter!
Red Statement Jacket
If you're looking to step it up a bit more, a great way to incorporate red is with a statement jacket. Remember if you go inside, the jacket is going to come off, so it's less of a commitment than wearing head to toe red. Take neutrals that you love like your go-to pair of jeans and add a wow factor to your overall outfit with a coat like this beautiful blazer jacket from the Banana Republic.
