Pantone's Lava Falls Red

Hello, and thanks so much for stopping by!

I love Pantone's choice of the color Lava Falls Red for autumn and winter this season

I find red an uplifting and energizing color,

and it is one of my very favorites to wear

The evidence is in my closet,

 and the many blog post photos featuring the color in outfit pieces and accessories

So this week's post featuring Lava Falls Red is an obvious choice!

My first dress can be worn year round,

 but I generally wear it in the fall and  spring

It is a very versatile shirt dress style in a red and navy windowpane check,

with navy blue collar and cuffs

It is one of numerous Tommy Hilfiger pieces in my closet

The designer's signature color combination is red, white and blue

and his style is classic American, so it is a natural match

Accessorizing with a neck scarf in a multi color nautical motif 

of red, navy, gold, green and white

Also pictured, simple gold tone jewelry to compliment the outfit

Square stud earrings and a hinged bracelet 

Carrying a navy blue quilted chain strap shoulder bag

All matchy-matchy today with 

navy blue block heel sling backs to finish the look

The name of the color Lava Falls Red prompted me 

to get this dress out to wear

It is an older dress that I don't wear very often, but the print so epitomizes

the name for the current color

It reminds me of lava or flames with the red, orange and hot pink print! 

Wearing a sheer black 3/4 sleeve top underneath to seasonal-ize it

Minimal shiny gold tone jewelry:

a chain link collar necklace and earrings

These pieces are not a set, but they go together very well

Lots of shine today with a black patent leather clutch bag

with bold brushed gold hardware

Black d'orsey pumps to finish the look

Red has been a favorite color of mine to wear for years

Here is a red and pink floral dress layered under a red blazer from fall, 2017

Hard to believe this was five years ago!

Hope everyone has a good week!
