Scarlet is blazing hot. Appealing not only to the daring and adventurous, bold shades of red encourage everyone to go a little wild. Mirrors, metallics and neutrals complement the color and add to its dramatic effect. Traditional Asian and cutting-edge contemporary styles stand alone or meld harmoniously. Cane and rattan are ever-popular materials, and many products are following the eco-friendly trend in other ways besides using these sustainable resources. Both edgy and world aware, red accessories are making their mark.![]() |
