Pops of Burgundy: The Color I’m Reaching for This Season

Shop the Looks

Over the past few weeks, burgundy has quietly become one of the colors I reach for most. It feels warm, elegant, and perfectly seasonal, adding a soft richness to even the simplest outfits. Nothing bold or dramatic. Just small, thoughtful touches that blend into my neutral wardrobe and make everything feel a little more intentional!

It is also one of the prettiest colors to style during the holidays. Whether it is Thanksgiving with family or a festive gathering in December, burgundy adds a warm, polished note that never feels overpowering!

How I’ve Been Adding Burgundy Into My Outfits

I’ve been bringing this color into my wardrobe through little details that fit naturally into my everyday looks.

  • A soft burgundy knit: Cozy and refined, it adds warmth without overwhelming a minimal outfit.

  • A structured burgundy purse: A simple pop of color that grounds and elevates neutral layers.

  • Burgundy nail polish: A small detail that contrasts beautifully with cream knits and gold jewelry.

  • A subtle burgundy lip: A quiet way to add depth to black, grey, or brown outfits.

  • Burgundy socks: A fun, understated accent that peeks out from loafers or flats.

These touches have made it easy to weave burgundy into my wardrobe without having to rethink my outfits or step outside my usual palette.

Styling Inspiration & Simple Tips

  • A Rich Accent With Denim: One of the easiest combinations I’ve been loving is burgundy paired with denim. The contrast between the deep blue and warm red instantly feels polished. A burgundy knit with clean denim and a structured bag has become a go-to when I want to look put-together with minimal effort.

  • Burgundy and Chocolate Browns: Chocolate brown has been anchoring many of my outfits this season, and burgundy layers beautifully with it. Together they create warm, tonal looks that feel cohesive and softly elevated.

  • A Monochromatic Burgundy Moment: For days when I want something sharper, burgundy head-to-toe feels modern and elegant. A tonal knit with matching trousers or a dress layered with a burgundy coat creates a refined, minimal outfit that still feels soft.

  • Small Pops That Still Feel Classic: If you prefer subtle touches, accessories are the easiest entry point. A bag, a lip color, or even socks bring a hint of color without changing the feel of the outfit.

A Color That Blends Seamlessly Into a Capsule

Burgundy works surprisingly well with a capsule wardrobe. It pairs effortlessly with black, grey, cream, navy, beige, and denim. For me, it also feels like a natural extension of the tones I already wear, especially in fall and winter.

That is why I’ve been coming back to it so often. It complements my existing pieces and adds a sense of warmth to even the most minimal outfits.

Final Thoughts

Burgundy has become a beautiful way to add richness and depth to my everyday looks this season. It is timeless, easy to style, and blends naturally into a neutral wardrobe. Whether worn as a small pop or as a full tonal moment, it brings a refined, seasonal touch without complicating anything.

And as we move into the holiday months, it is one of the chicest colors to incorporate into outfits for gatherings, dinners, and simple celebrations. Soft, warm, and understated, it feels festive in a way that is still completely classic.
