        How to Wear a Red Dress

        If you want to be the center of attention at the next cocktail party you attend, then a good strategy is to wear a red dress. While not everyone has the confidence to pull off such a bold color, if you do it right, all eyes should be on you for the entire night.
        Instructions

        Things You'll Need:

        • Red dress
        • Silver or gold shoes
        • Jewelry
        • Evening bag
        • Lipstick
        1. Step1
          Wear a red dress in a classic style that is cut well and flatters your figure. Consider both strapless options and more covered up styles to decide what you feel most comfortable wearing. Keep in mind that red is sexy in itself, so you can go with a more modest dress and still look sizzling hot.
        2. Step2
          Realize that fit is everything in a red dress. Check out how the dress sits from every angle to be sure it doesn't pull or gap anywhere.
        3. Step3
          Be sure the shade of red dress you wear compliments your complexion. Some reds have more blue undertones that could compete with certain colorings. Try a variety of reds against your skin tone to see what suits you best.
        4. Step4
          Wear nude underwear (or skip underwear altogether) to avoid panty lines.
        5. Step5
          Leave your legs bare or at least wear nude hosiery so your legs won't take attention away from the rest of your outfit.
        6. Step6
          Find a lipstick shade that matches the dress color. Let the focus be on your body and lips and go with more understated makeup for the rest of your face.
        7. Step7
          Select either silver or gold finishes for your shoes, jewelry and handbag. These will help set off the red and won't compete with it.

          How to Accessorize With Red Shoes

          Instructions
          1. Step1
            Forget the old, stale fashion rule: "the shoes must match the purse." Instead, choose a solid-colored bag that complements the intensity of the red color of the shoes. Don't pair a lime-green bag with rust shoes; forest green is a better choice, though a lime-green purse would be excellent with lipstick-red heels.
          2. Step2
            Don't overwhelm your outfit with red. You can add red elements to your ensemble, just not directly next to the shoes. Red dresses, tights, skirts or pants can be overkill, but a simple, short red jacket, scarf, headband, purse or ruby or coral jewelery can tie the shoes into the rest of the outfit without being too much.
          3. Step3
            Stick to a few colors---no more than two additional colors plus red. One of the other colors should be black or white. Solids work best, but if you want to wear prints, choose simple designs in black and white such as polka dots or stripes. If you want to add a more daring print such as leopard or zebra, keep these to a minimum, as with a belt, headband or small clutch purse. Dark denim also complements red shoes, such as with a pair of dark skinny jeans and a simple white top for a more casual look.
          4. Step4
            Be creative. Within these guidelines, choose what you like best. You can go simple with a pair of red ballet flats and a white dress, red heels with a little black dress and red jewelery for evening, or even a pair of red pumps with a conservative gray suit for the office. Just remember to let the shoes be the focus of the outfit and let the other elements work to show them off
