Liv Tyler offers a masterclass in accessorising an all-black ensemble following the 'unexpected red theory'. Styling a sleek black pair of tailored trousers and a black top, she opts for a captivating red accessory that's truly won us over.
With the arrival of September and an overcast sky, our fashion choices take a turn into deeper, more seasonal colours in the hope of curating the ultimate autumn capsule wardrobe. And if you've been keeping up to date with the latest fashion trends, you'll have seen that "cherry red" is set to be one of the colours for the cooler months ahead.
And this sophisticated look from actress Liv Tyler educates us all on how to integrate this trending colour into our autumnal looks. Attending a show at New York Fashion Week, she chose a striking dark look consisting of a black turtleneck and wide-leg tailored trousers. And the standout accessory? A statement red baguette bag that has to be one of the best designer handbags we've seen all season.
The bag itself is the ALAÏA Red 'Le Teckel' Small Bag and retails for the high price-point of £1560. However, luckily for you we've found an affordable alternative that's just as fabulous. And to finish off the all-black ensemble she chooses mesh mules that add a playful edge to the sleek attire.
