SEEING RED (AND PURPLE TOO!): FALL COLOR ALERT 2013

Although we are still trying to wrap our brains around how red can be Fall's new "neutral", we can at least say we're excited about this color trend!  This fall we will be seeing a lot of red and purple in both beauty and fashion. 

Typically red is seen as a "power" color, although this season it has oddly been dubbed as a "neutral" color to mix and match with other bold colors such as this season's other favorite: deep purple. Even though it is one of the main colors on the palette, it will be seen as more of a supporting roll to this years heavy fabrics, mixed textures, and love for leather (who doesn't love some leather?). 

Tip: Wear your brighter summer reds  through the warmer days of fall. Once the chill sets in, build  darker hues into play. This goes for makeup as well as clothing!
