Bold colors are having their moments this fall/winter. As a classic bright color, red is no exception. Last time we focused on red bottoms (different styles of red skirts), today we will continue to focus on red, but at the top–I want to share with you some stylish and glamorous looks incorporated red tops, blazers and coats.

Dress: Anthropologie (great style spotted on Jessica Alba here, under $50 version here)

Clutch: Michael Michael Kors (great buy under $45 here)

Scarf: Emilio Pucci (adore this pattern, similar here)

I love playing with layers. But when the temperature rises, another styling skill is under testing: mixing and matching. Juxtaposing different patterns, prints and materials against with each other can achieve unexpected stylish looks, sometimes hippie, sometimes bohemian, sometimes–like the look above–girly yet chic.

The edgy python clutch acts as the perfect contrast to her romantic polka dot dress, resulting in an attractive beauty in their discord. What do you think?
