Lady in Red

I love these two colors, red and black, because they are the few colors that don't have to go with a particular season, you can wear them summer to winter and still look in style.

Here's a red Ann Taylor dress ($50) that I paired with a belt and a velvet Gap tuxedo jacket ($40)...the result: office chic!

Since it's still cold outside, I wore black tights, which can also make the outfit more "office appropriate" so you aren't showing too much leg....

The heels are from my Banana Republic ($98)...which I've always had good luck with the shoes I've purchased from BR lasting more than a couple seasons. My favorite part is the gold lining inside! And even with the heel, they are super comfy.

I've also worn this outfit with just-below-the-knee black heel boots, which makes it more urban city style.
