Hi, there. Happy Monday! This week, I’m styling some of my favorite fall fashion trends for your everyday outfit inspiration, and today we’re talking about how to incorporate a pop of red into a casual outfit.

I’m a big fan of red, but I haven’t worn it a lot in recent years. I’m so happy to see so many options out there right now. All shades of red are trending this season, so there’s something for everyone, whether you prefer warm or cool tones.

Pop of Red: Try A Red Sneaker

The easiest way to incorporate red into an outfit, especially if you don’t care for it near your face, is to wear a red shoe. Red shoes pair beautifully with all shades of denim, which makes it easy for me to wear them since I practically live in jeans. You can even go with a white pair with red accents if you don’t want such a bright shoe.

A red sneaker is a great way to incorporate this trend into your wardrobe in a casual way, and since I live a casual life, I set out to find a pair that I can wear with jeans and t-shirts and sweatshirts this fall.

I found these red Pumas at Zappos, and I love the retro vibes. Unfortunately, they promptly sold out, but red sneakers are fairly easy to find. I’ll round up some more options for you below.

Shop red sneakers:

I like straight leg jeans best with athletic-inspired sneakers like these, and these Madewell Perfect Vintage Jeans are made of a retro-inspired rigid denim with just a hint of stretch. They have a versatile medium wash with some subtle fading and abrasion for a casual, lived-in vibe.

The 29″ inseam is a little longer than ankle length, but not quite full length on me, and they have a subtle taper at the ankle. I typically prefer to show a bit of ankle with my sneakers, but trends are moving away from that look this fall. I still wear my straight ankle jeans, but these look a little more fashion-forward to me right now.

Since the shoes are so bold, I kept the rest of the outfit neutral. This black short-sleeved sweatshirt is from Evereve, and I love the zipper details along the sides. The short sleeves add a fun element of juxtaposition, and it has a nice relaxed fit. It runs true to size; this is the small.

Pop of Red: Red Pumps

For a dressier look that incorporates a pop of red into an otherwise neutral outfit, I styled red patent leather slingback pumps with wide leg jeans and a black and white striped sweater vest. I love the juxtaposition of the red pumps and the faded wide leg jeans.

FYI, these jeans are on sale at Bloomingdale’s, and they’re fully stocked at motherdenim.com.

And I also wore the same sweater with a denim skirt and red pointy toe flats, for an of-the moment dressy-casual look that can take you so many places. You can see more about both of these looks in THIS POST.

Pop of Red: Red Sweatshirt

For a much bigger pop of red, I recently picked up this LNA half zip sweatshirt at Evereve. It has a cropped fit with reverse seam details and an adjustable bungee hem, and it’s super soft and cozy inside. It’s the perfect ‘elevated sweatshirt’ for pairing with jeans and sneakers for my casual days running errands and working from home, and I love the bold shade of red.

I wore this sweatshirt last night with light wash jeans and P448 sneakers, but I also like how it pairs with dark wash jeans. These are the MOTHER The Rider Slim Straight Ankle Jeans from the #NSale back in July, and they’re made of super soft and lightweight stretch denim that is so comfortable.

These have a 10 1/2″ front rise, which is higher than the Madewell Perfect Vintage Jeans but lower than some of the others I’ve tried recently. I actually like the 10 1/2″ rise for me, so maybe I need to look for these in a lighter wash.

This time, I wore a lower profile sneaker, also with a retro flair. The Vince Oasis is made of luxe leather and a gum sole, and I love how the Night Blue accents tie into the inky dark wash jeans.

I hope this post gives you some ideas for incorporating a pop of red into your everyday fall outfits. I’m sure I’ll continue to play around with it and find more red pieces as the season progresses.

How are you wearing this trending color for fall?
