(I am standin', standin' in the red, red rain)

I don't know if you've heard, but according to "fashion-era.com" (ehhh???) tomato red is THE color for winter '09.

Well, in that case...

I don't mind red.  Like most colors I prefer it in small increments, like a great bag or scarf, to add visual interest to my otherwise all-black or all-grey ensembles (so I can be like HAH! Ya see wut I did thar??) But maybe I'll spring for a coat this year, if I'm feeling adventurous.  I compiled another list of things that do look better in that crimson hue.
