In reply to Lisa. You didn’t mention my favorite combination- true red with chocolate brown or camel brown! Love this!

I forgot to add that I color my hair a warm red-auburn. So I look good in a lot of the colors “redheads” look good in — citrus colors in summer, autumn colors in the fall, aqua and teal and grass greens…but black, “regular red” and purples don’t do me any favors up near my face. (“Red Hat Society” looks look terrible on me). Maybe someday, after I go gray, I’ll change my mind.

In reply to betty boop. I wouldn't say I'm "afraid" of red; I've just found that regular reds don't flatter me all that much, but this article really broadened my ideas about it. And it's always a great accent color.

In reply to Lisa. Hard to say but rather than going for the black as a base why not choose white or cream? I find that most outfits benefit from a third color thrown in.

Hi Sylvia, I have a red cardigan/jacket made of 43% wool, 43% viscose and 14% polyester. It has pockets with a black pattern on the bottom of the jacket and sleeves.
My obvious choice was a black top and black trousers or skirt to match. However, I haven’t found the right fabric top to match it and wanting to consider other colours.
What do you suggest. By the way my colouring is more towards cool colours as I have black hair, brown eyes and brown tone complexion.

I’m 64 and wear red tops all the time, all different shades of red including bright red, why are some of you ladies so scared to be seen in red. I have dark hair and light olive skin, red is very flattering on me, I don’t care if your 80-if you like it wear it. We have earned the right to wear what we like.

In reply to martine. The Dutch flag is red, white and blue... Great colour combination. I wear it a lot. Nobody thinks I look like a flag. Really, don’t worry about it. It is not an issue.

In reply to HEATHER OLDFIELD. Yes a warm red can be a beautiful color for a wedding and will be good for your warm skin tone.

Yes, I do love to wear red. I don’t wear it much for work only some on Friday when we wear red until all our soldiers are home. I do prefer red for sporty type of activities. Also, red is my choice of colour on the weekend for going out or to parties. Not to church though. I don’t like red for my church clothes. I keep red for athletic, dressy, vacation or evening clothes.
