How To Wear Burgundy - Classic Color Combinations That Always Look Chic

[@jocmtl]

Also burgundy and white: as a Canadian I avoid red and white to avoid looking like the flag, but burgundy and white can give that contrast impact and still look autumnal, and not like a Canada day parade, lol

I totally needed this explanation between burgundy and maroon!! I find that I am so disappointed when I wear maroon and now I totally understand why I need burgundy!!! Thank you so much as always-- Audrey love you honey

[@lynne9870]

Agreed...I need cool colours and never knew that about burgundy and maroon! So helpful x

[@katem3961]

Me too...recently bought, as described, 'burgundy' long sleeved top online but when it arrived it was (now I know the difference, thanks Audrey 😉) actually maroon. It just looked a bit off with my skin tone. However, as it is such good quailty and was heavily discounted I will keep it to wear under jumpers etc as a layering piece in the winter 😊

[@tangerinetangerine4400]

With burgundy think wine, with cool purple undertone. 💜 With maroon think rust with a hot orange undertone. ❤

[@IevaKambarovaite]

Same here

[@Teverell]

I'm the exact opposite - I need maroon because I have a warmer undertone to my skin. I find it so disappointing to see something listed as 'maroon' only to find it's been burgundy all along.

[@aurab6251]

Burgundy and orange is the best! I wear a burgundy puffer jacket and a massive orange wool scarf in the cold season, love it!

[@designsgood]

I really love burgundy paired with pink 💗

[@irairod5160]

Yay! Burgundy and teal are my favorite "non-neutrals". Burgundy, in particular, makes me feel beautiful and elegant. The moment autumn is in the horizon, I start pulling my burgundy pieces out of storage, and I get so excited! Thank you for showing so many creative combinations. Funny as it might sound, I took inspiration from an oriental rug in my house to develop my fall/winter palette, so I have deep reds, soft blues, creamy beige, and sage green as my main seasonal colors. I personally prefer burgundy to maroon, and love it with shades of blue, rose/mauve, sage or very light olive, and creamy neutrals the best. Oh! I also like it with cognac leather accessories. As I started developing a more curated closet, and had my core black-white-gray-beige-navy pieces accounted for, my first two important purchases were a burgundy knee-length coat and burgundy ankle boots with a pointy toe. And...you are right---when I wear burgundy head to toe, I feel MAGNIFICENT!

[@anonymousravenclaw3364]

I've learnt a LOT from you. You've opened my eyes towards colour combinations I didn't even know existed. You've also calmed my anxious soul because now I know I can most certainly pair anything with at least something. I was invited to a gathering recently where I wore a pastel purple-pink top with a greyish blue skirt. It was my most daring combination so far and I got a lot of compliments for it, all thanks to you🤗

[@TheMusicPinkLover91]

❤❤

[@stupor_mundi]

That must have looked wonderful, it's definitely not a usual combination. I learned a lot here as well, I had never realised how much psychology is impacted by the colours we combine, and it's certainly empowering to be so much in control of how we are perceived once we become aware of how colours play together. Audrey almost breaks it down to a science. A game changer trick for me was what she said about looking at colours that occur together in nature and use that. For example how we feel when we look at the sea, the sky, the earth, a garden, Autumn, etc, and then taking those colours to subliminally induce the same sensation through our outfit. That idea is brilliant, it's hard to go wrong with that in mind.

[@anonymousravenclaw3364]

@@stupor_mundi I know right? I too follow that advice. I've started learning from the colour combinations found in flowers. It's a really nice way to learn about complimentary and contrasting colours.

[@vkvkvk317]

Omg! Grey with lilac/pink... Such a great combination! I love those colours together, they are so in harmony. Im sure u looked beauuuutiful!!! I take a pic of my outfits and store them on a private pinterest board for when 'I dont know what to wear' so I go there and I look at my own previous combinations with items that I have in my closet :)

I love burgundy! It's one of my all time favourite colours. Especially when it's leaning purple, kind of berryish.

[@midlifemom5829]

Love how you describe burgundy and green as a toned down Christmas combo in attire, perfect way to participate but “not looking too festive” . Love beige /camel with burgundy! My skin is warm toned but find the coolness of the combo balances my look so i dont look too warm

[@lt3880]

I had my eye on a certain burgundy jacket but had no burgundy in my wardrobe and had no idea what to pair with it. It is a relief how well it pairs with navy, charcoal grey, and beige, but the cooler forest greens and even teal is really surprising to me! I never would have thought of that.

[@amyviera4862]

Would love to have you do one on Peach and Apricot! I can’t get enough of these colors. ❤️

[@s.o.3647]

it’s one of my signature colours, i think. One of my favourite combinations is with a light turquoise. It’s such an unexpected combo and I definitely use it a lot (especially when it’s colder with my burgundy beret and turquoise scarf)

I LOVE your videos... I would love to see one on how to wear beige/tan/browns/ earth tones that are so popular. It's so hard to find just the right color of these neutrals/earth tones that don't make people look washed out or bare. I know cools/warms play a huge role in this but I'm not sure I've seen a video anywhere how to wisely use these colors

[@janicevin4207]

Burgundy is one of my absolute favourite colours. We are going into spring/ summer here in Australia but I will be rewatching this video to prepare for our autumn/winter 😉 I so love these colour videos Audrey. Your research and information is meticulous. Thank you 💗

[@niram1973]

Hello fellow Australian, I also love the colour burgundy. Three years ago I purchased a pair of burgundy pants. I actually bought 2 pairs as it is difficult to find burgundy coloured pants. I am just curious as to why burgundy is considered only an autumnal colour. I see a great deal of the colour burgundy in nature during spring and summer - in many flowering plants and trees and in fruits (cherries, grapes, plums). Burgundy, for me, is not what I would consider to be a heavy colour for spring or summer as, for example, black or a darker brown. I wonder if anyone else thinks as I do?

[@westaussieeggs8867]

@@niram1973 i agree, i looove the combo of burgundy with lime colour, so fresh and sparkly.

[@katem3961]

@@niram1973 Hi Niram, I too bought two pairs of burgundy pants last year, as you said they are a rare find. Mine are in a light weight material (would love some in woollen material too) so I intend to wear them in spring/summer, I love burgundy with crisp white. I am a huge fan of wear what makes you happy 😊 Take care, stay safe 💜

Could I possibly make a suggestion?

[@girljustDIYit]

I bought a pair of burgundy trousers years ago, and was afraid I wouldn't be able to style it in many ways because it is quite a bold colour. But in the years wearing it, I've been slowly but steadily pairing it with basically any colour in my wardrobe, and every time I am impressed again by how good it looks together. Definitely an underrated colour and so much easier to style than one would expect. I haven't tried pairing it with purple yet, thanks for the tip, will try it out soon!

[@Lenneke9303]

I love how you explain which colours together form burgundy, or any other colour in these videos. Would love to see a video about clay/terracotta colours and how best to style those :)

[@gracefontenot1121]

Audrey, this is so helpful! Learning more about what colors look better with my soft autumn coloring has been a game changer - i never realized there was such a striking difference between burgundy and maroon! On another note, as winter is coming I’ve been pulling out my sweaters and (after letting a few go) i still have 17 sweaters! I feel like this is way too many, but I’ve never seen this subject addressed. I want to downsize, but i don’t know what questions to ask myself to know what I’ll need! (If this kind of video idea piques your interest I’d also love a similar video on scarves.) I grew up in a warm climate, but for the last five years I’ve lived in one that has very cold winters. Ive learned a lot but i feel like i missed the day in school where they teach you how many and what kinds of sweaters you should have! I would love to see you make a video about how many is an appropriate number, and what styles, weights and colors you believe belong in a classic, minimalist closet like your own. It would especially be helpful if you could show us the ones you own!
