“When in doubt wear red.”–Bill Blass

Our theme at Emmagem this fortnight is prosperity, luck and fortune!  And what color would be most suitable for that? Red of course! Unlike other colors, red brings out the fire and passion in you, brighten your outfit, and spice up your look!
         No, I’m not talking about light red, pastel pink or anything, but bright hot red. Its time to celebrate this color and the fun of dressing up that comes with it! This coming Lunar New Year, you don’t have to wear all red for luck, you can put on a hint of red here and there. Of course, you can still don on your red lingerie (winks), but it doesn’t mean you have to wear a bright red top or anything (not everyone likes the colour red!).

To make things simple, there are many different ways of wearing red:

1. You can match simple black and white outfits with red accessories such as bangles, beads, headbands and earrings

   
   Accessories from Diva are available at 1 Utama, PJ.

   
   Red earrings are hot too.

2. Hot red lipstick is in right now! It accentuates your sexy pout, and is a head turner wherever you go. You can get a red lippie from Maybelline or L’Oreal, or even from Chanel (a personal favorite).

3. When wearing your LBD (little black dress, an every woman must have!), you don’t have to pair with black heels. Its time for a change, go get yourself a RED sexy stiletto heels!

   
   Sexy Stilettos that don’t cost a lot. You can easily get them from the Vincci & Nose shoe boutique near you from RM 30 onwards.

   
   Wear sexy red pumps with jeans. This jeans is from Active Endeavors.

4. You could even wear a red scarf or a belt to bring out the vixen in you.

Wearing red is just a simple first step. Just carry along your confidence and flaunt all that you can!
