1. Sleek and Simple

As a gal who works the typical 9 to 5, one of my favorite ways to wear oxblood is with a professional-looking office outfit. Start off with a black pencil skirt and Peter Pan-collared white button down. Then, top of your look with an oxblood blazer and pumps. It’s daring, yet still meeting-appropriate. You might also want to take this opportunity to ask for that raise!

2. Effortlessly Edgy

You’ve finally pulled those black and grey skinny jeans out of storage, but do you know what could take ‘em to the next level? An oxblood leather (or faux leather) motorcycle jacket. I’m drooling over this badass find from us.asos.com.

3. Fearlessly Feminine

Another way to wear oxblood this fall is by scouring the racks for picks with feminine cuts. For example, an oxblood peplum top can easily be a girly girl’s staple if paired with dark wash skinnies, kitten heels, and a lace blazer. Doesn’t that sound like the perfect date night getup? He won’t be able to keep his eyes off you!

4. Trendy Tomboy

Just because all of your dress-adoring friends are wearing oxblood doesn’t mean this is another trend you’ll have to skip. Oxblood trousers have been all the rage lately –and they’re available in a variety of cuts. If you’re a T-shirt and jeans type of gal, opt for oxblood skinnies instead of your usual blue denim picks.

5. Super Sporty

Calling all gym-goers, rock climbers, swimmers, runners, and sports players! Personal style might be the last thing on your mind when you’re about to break a sweat. But there are easy, breezy ways to stay trend-conscious while lifting weights or running laps. For example, if your old gym bag is worn and torn, consider picking up a new one in oxblood. Need new sneakers? Keep yourself well-soled this fall and winter with new kicks.

6. Mad for Menswear

If you love “borrowing” your guy’s cardigans and fedoras, you should think about investing in a few of your own –in oxblood, of course. I happen to wear men’s V-neck tees while lounging in front of the television or running errands. Oxblood is more fall-appropriate than white is and looks chic under a trench coat or sweater. Just don’t blame me when your guy gets super jealous of your new fall staples.

7. Add Accessories

One way to wear oxblood without breaking the piggy bank is to pick up a few inexpensive accessories. If a new jacket or pair of jeans is out of your price range right now, try a stack of oxblood bangles, tights, or a sports watch. Even if you only drop a few dollars, you’ll feel like a million bucks!

These are seven of the top ways to wear oxblood. Which tips will you try? Do you have any of your own to add?
