Primary Colors to Wear for Women "of a Certain Age"

According to one of the many magazines I subscribe to, there is an exciting color palette for us to wear this coming Spring season:  red and black.

As an alum of Colonial High School in Orlando, that's an easy color blend to wear (Go Grenadiers!).

I don't recommend you mix your reds (dress, shoes, handbag) because it looks too costumey and is not the style right now. Pick one red and dress it up with black, leopard, stripes, magenta or hot pink, even orange!


You can wear them separately....

Or as a color combo....

And, adding a touch of print or white, can add to your ensemble.

And accessories can be worn to brighten your wardrobe...

Although I don't think a magazine can tell us what to wear, they do have some nice pieces that any of us can wear with style and panache. So when you hit the stores, look at buying something red and/or black and feel like a style maven! Because you are!
