au0624.JPGColors very rarely constitute an entire fashion trend, but in 2009 the most traditional of colors has made quite a splash in the fashion world. The trend began with the Ray Ban Wayfarer surge in late 2008 and has since morphed into an entire fashion ideology. Candy apple red is the color of 2009- and no other can compare this year. In the world of high fashion eyewear, designers are scrambling to make red frames in every red-friendly design. Here are a few tips when buying red.

For blondes, bright red is a breeze. The shark contrast with the natural splendor of lighter hair is startling and pleasing, if not a bit coquettish. For blondes trying to cash in on the red trend of 2009, the best bet is to capitalize on the childish look of the color by accessorizing with overly large or bulky red objects like the traditional Wayfarer and a clunky red bag.

Brunettes need to be a bit more subtle, but red can really work to bring out the highlights in auburn hair and darker skin. Brunettes should think ‘less is more’ with bright red, and accessorize with classy adaptations on traditional fashion trends in the new hit color. Try the red frames of Hugo Boss and Ralph Lauren which adhere to new trends but remain conservative. Pair your new red frames with black heels with a red sole and you’ll be in business.

Redheads rarely get the chance to go red. In 2009, ignore the standard complaint that red will clash with your skin and hair tones and embrace the color with passion. For optimal effect try a creative model from a trusted brand, like a flashy Dior or stunning Gucci. Pair this with bright orange or yellow shoes and you are ready for a night on the town.
