I'm obsessed with oxblood, there, I admit it. It's the only color that has really struck a chord with me since my obsession with grey (which is still going strong I might add). Oxblood, the color, doesn't refer to the oxen, as you may first think, it actually references "oxygenated blood", the color when blood is exposed to air and turns a deep dark red. To me, this color defines this years colder months, it's luxe, deep, passionate and thoughtful. The funny thing is, I pretty much hate all other shades of red, unless on my nails or lips. Red and I don't get along, but oxblood and I are becoming the best of friends. Others might refer to this color as burgundy or wine, but that's not accurate nor is it nearly as bad ass. Here are a few of my favorite looks using this color from some of my favorite fashion bloggers...

I've recently invested in an oxblood faux fur snood from Target which is fabulous and a pair of oxblood Hudson pants with a neon pink tuxedo stripe!
I'm sure you'll see them in upcoming posts :)
