WMCFW Day 4: RED

There’s always such an energy on Day 4 of Toronto Fashion Week. Following some of the week’s biggest shows on Wednesday night, there’s a refreshed desire to dress your best.

This season, I had the privilege of previewing the SOIA & KYO fall 2014 collection earlier in the week. The brand also dressed me in one of their fall 2014 men’s pieces for their runway show – this amazing red wool coat! Statement outerwear at its best. Bold, but not over the top; a piece that you can be worn in a variety of ways. But since it was fashion week, I decided to go big or go home, pairing the red coat with orange pants, a red scarf and red-orange reflective sunglasses.

I love the look of a color palette, limited to two analogous colors. Red and orange are definitely alarming together and on a cloudy day like this one, the color really pops. I’m giving winter the boot!
