Add These Five Rust Colored Items To Your Wardrobe This Season

Rust is an orange-red-brown color resembling iron oxide. It is a commonly used color in stage lighting and appears roughly the same color as photographic safelights when used over a standard tungsten light source. The color is number 777 in the Lee Filters swatch book. -Wikipedia. For me, while rust is a color that many may find it difficult to pair with, I think it can be matched with any color, from black to green.

I love it in winter because it’s a warm color, however, it can be used during summer as an accent color as well. Below, find five fashion items to add to your wardrobe for whenever you feel like adding a color that is warm, elegant and soothing at the same time.

Yes, You Can Wear White In Winter

Fashion has been revolutionized ever since the first “important person” dared to say, in public that it’s absolutely ok to wear white in winter. So after that, it’s ok to wear white in the winter. It never occurred to anyone that after all, snow is white and only happens in winter. As a matter of fact, right now everywhere I look at is covered with white snow. Don’t take me wrong I don’t necessarily approve white summer-looking dresses for the winter. Maybe this latter has to do with the fact that I’m always cold and can’t conceive the idea.

This magical wintry look can be accomplished in many different ways with the proper fabrics from knitwear, white suede pants, white booties, and many others. Take a look below for major inspiration on how to achieve the perfect white outfit in the winter.
