Bordeaux After Dark

Bordeaux After Dark

Rich burgundy meets sleek black for a look that does all the talking. Wide-leg trousers, a classic black blazer and suede booties create the polished base—then bold Hello Baabs accessories turn up the personality. Because sophisticated does not have to mean subtle.

Baabs Style Tip

This look started with one piece: the necklace. From there, everything spiraled—in the best way.


Because the necklace mixes several rich colors, it gives you plenty of latitude when building the rest of the outfit. Your reds do not have to match perfectly. The marbled bracelets actually work in your favor—the variations in the resin make slightly different shades of red look intentional.


The beaded earrings echo the texture of the necklace without copying it exactly. And because the pieces aren't sitting right next to each other, nobody is comparing shades. Your eye simply reads it all as one coordinated story.


That’s the trick to matchy-matchy: match the mood and color family, not the exact color.


Then have a little fun. A bold brooch, statement sunglasses—or both—are easy ways to give a polished outfit some Hello Baabs personality.


Start with the piece you love. Pull colors from it. Mix your textures. Then stop worrying about whether everything “matches.” It already does.


Be Bold. Be You.
