lady in red

There’s no feeling quite like stepping out in total confidence, and friends, I am a firm believer that nothing inspires that quite like the color red. Today, I am thrilled to introduce you to The Styled Collection, the online boutique that made putting together this show-stopping look an unexpected breeze. The three red pieces you’ll see below (earrings, blouse and skirt) make an incredible ensemble all together, but believe it or not, it was their individual nuances that led me to them in the first place!

SHIRT   red scalloped blouse (just $27!)    c/o   |   SKIRT   red flare skirt c/o   |   EARRINGS   red statement earrings   (just $14!)   c/o   |   BAG   taupe crossbody c/o   |   BRACELET   screw n lock bracelet c/o   |   SHOES  Christian Louboutin pumps

While scrolling through The Styled Collection (after stumbling across this darling striped dress) I was immediately drawn to this scalloped, red blouse. I loved that the sleeve length made it a perfect transition piece, while the scalloped hemline added a sweet dose of femininity. The rich, red hue, though, is what really got me. Red is my favorite color to stock up on during colder months, as it always manages to add an effortless, tasteful statement to any ensemble. I knew this was one piece I’d be getting a lot of use out of these coming months.

Then, as fate would have it, I came across the flared red skirt. I was immediately smitten with the elegant, flirty cut and instantly added it to my shopping bag. I have always jumped at any bottom layer that adds variety to my jean-heavy fall wardrobe, and I could already see this paired with everything from turtlenecks and blanket scarves to chunky sweaters and booties.

The earrings, friends, are what really did me in. Have you ever seen such a fun statement?

The moment I looked at these three pieces all together, I knew I’d stumbled across a winning combination. Not only could they each form the base of an incredible outfit in-and-of-themselves, but all together, they were even better! All of the sudden I had a complete ensemble that looked flawlessly refined without breaking the bank. (Heads up, both the blouse and skirt are currently on sale!)

One thing I enjoyed so much about The Styled Collection was the selection… I had everything I needed to put together a killer outfit, from earrings to handbags, all in one place. To take it one step further, I was even more impressed with just how curated the entire selection was. I didn’t have to wade through hundreds of pages in search of something special, as each piece held something uniquely eye-catching. Finding new brands that mix style and affordability so well gives me a lot of joy, and I hope you have as much fun shopping The Styled Collection as I have!

Love from Texas,

Kate
