I saw a few pins on Pinterest over the last few days where the pièce de résistance in the outfit was a bright, happy pop of red. As frigid temps (and stormy, snowy skies) have taken over much of the nation, it got me thinking how red is such a perfect color to accent with this time of year. Isn’t its warmth and bold attitude the complete antithesis to the gray skies? I browsed around and found a few looks I really loved; below is how you can re-create them, plus lots of other pops of red at every price point!

Hooray! I have a sweater that’s shaped like a red moto jacket and was having a hard time styling it other than with distressed jeans. This is a great look ( I just ain’t wearing it today–I’ll perish in the cold!).
Love the pop of red!! Great ideas!

What a good idea! I usually add a pop of red with my lipstick or nails!
oo so many fun picks! i have a great red coat but it’s not heavy enough to wear today :( xo jillian – cornflake dreams
I love adding pops of color to my otherwise all black winter routine!
So true! This time of year I tend to revert to a wardrobe of all neutrals…mostly all black! I love the idea of popping that with red shoes…those sling backs in particular! I definitely want to incorporate this into my wardrobe the next few months.
I need a pair of red loafers now!
oh my gosh those red sling backs are perfection!

I love Rachel Parcell’s outfit here – she’s so slender, all of her layering looks perfect. I enjoy a good pop of red, which is probably why I love red lipstick so much!
Great outfits! I love wearing a little pop of red this time of year especially with Valentine’s Day coming up : )
Love this and for some reason especially in the cold winter months. Red goes a long way!
I’m all for the Off Duty look! I’ve been eying a cheaper version of the J.Crew darby loafers in Strawberry. They would be perfect year round and like you said, red adds a much needed pop to the grey and gloom of winter!
I love all of these! I love red but probably tend to use it more than a pop.. but I think it’s more powerful as a pop. Yay!
