Bold Red Accessories to Brighten Your Day

I’m feeling very red today – perhaps because I was seeing red in the parking lot at the mall this afternoon – but anyway I was thinking about bold accessories, and red accessoires, and holiday accessories and I managed to come up with my holiday wish list…all red…all great for the holidays and well beyond:

I’m lusting after this Rebecca Minkoff  bag.  I love the shape and the design.  It looks like it would wrok with a variety of moods and styles and I could use it for a long time.

Enamored Drawstring Bag available at RebeccaMinkoff.com

In case Santa isn’t feeling quite so generous I love this bag from Fossil as well:

Fossil Modern Cargo Tote $168 at Zappos.com

And what goes better with a bold red purse than bold red shoes or boots:

Burt Red Carson Boot $348 at Zappos.com

These red Frye Carson boots are great.  I could live in them!  And imagine how bold and bright your attitude would be wearing them!  To complete your redness, slick on the perfect shade of red lip sitck and have the brightest, boldest day ever!

Can We Talk About Summer Shoes?

No lie, one of my absolute favorite things about summer is that warm weather then brings the ability to wear (pause for dramatic effect) my summer shoes. Heck the first sign of weather above freezing and daylight savings, I am whipping out my sandals and wedge heels, devising outfits around the fashion sneaks and flip flops I purchased WAY before I could wear them… It might be a sickness. If it is? I don’t want to get better!

Let’s weigh in on what our absolute favorite shoes are to wear this summer, or any summer for that matter. What have you had tucked away, just waiting for the summer breeze to roll in so that you could take those puppies out?

My picks for this summer are of the eclectic variety… meaning that I don’t discriminate!
