A Better Red

Without consciously trying to, I've added lots more persimmon to my life. It's my favorite color right now. It's a more natural red and works well with neutrals like grays, khakis and creams. I suggest you try to add a bit of it to your life, especially in the cold winter. It warms up your wardrobe and your home more gently than reds that carry more blue. Persimmon leans more toward yellow without becoming outright orange. 


Try different shades of persimmon in varying quantities. It can range from spicy and hot to soft and peachy.
