Red and black is a classic color combo that never goes out of style in fashion. It's versatile and chic, offering endless outfit options whether you're dressing up or keeping it casual. Red adds warmth and energy to your look, while black brings a touch of sophistication and elegance. Together, they create outfits that stand out and make you feel confident.

 

Whether you're wearing a little black dress with red accessories or mixing and matching tops and bottoms, red and black always look good together. It's a timeless choice that never disappoints, no matter the occasion.

 

Choosing red and black isn't just about following trends—it's about embracing a timeless style that never goes out of fashion. Here are some fun and fabulous ways to style the palette with CC styles this season:


The Co-Ord Set

The key to a truly fabulous look is balance - which is made easy when you are working with a co-ord set. The Skylar Jacket and Skirt in a gorgeous red and black houndstoot pattern makes for a standout look that has an old money feel to it.

 

You can lean into the old money aesthetic by layering a black turtleneck jumper like the Mia Black Jumper under the jacket but add a little edge with the Robbie Ankle Boot. Add some details with gold jewellery and graphic eyeliner.

The Casual Ensemble

You can balance looking great and relaxed styling easily when you have gorgeous colours to play with like the deep red of the Sofia Jumper whose cosy knit fabric and chic balloon sleeves will make any outfit look polished.

 

French tuck this into the Leah Flare Jean that add a bohemian edge to the look with frayed hem and front seam detailing, Finish the look with the Elodie Boot to keep the boho vibe going with the faux-suede fabric and detailed stitching on the front of the shoe. Throw on the Amelia Black Coat to help conquer the cold.
