Today's Color Combo Lesson: Burgundy + Camel

Let's be honest: if there's one color you should be wearing this season, it's burgundy. In redder shades, it's oxblood, in brighter purple tinges, it's a sultry merlot, but this deeper purple-red iteration perfectly indulges our love of moodier hues. To offset the sensuous tone, we're styling (read: expertly coordinating) our favorite burgundy staples with equally cool camel-colored pieces. It's a matchup that works, no matter the occasion or the person wearing it. If you're a classicist, pair a camel peacoat with coated burgundy skinny jeans. If you're more of a bohemian girl, go for the combo of a chunky knitted sweater dress and lace-up boots. If you're a polished professional through and through, then chances are you'll love our duo of a slick burgundy pencil skirt and oversize knit sweater. Bottom line: this color combo deserves a test drive; inside, find five ways to wear it now.

For the polished professional, you can colorblock too, as long as you keep it cool and subtle. That's why burgundy works here. We chose a knitted, ultratextured sweater and a slick pencil skirt for the perfect 9-to-5 pairing. Topshop Knitted Step Hem Jumper ($80) + Tibi Bonded Vinyl Pencil Skirt ($725)
We love the juxtaposition of texture vs. soft layers vs. a menswear-inspired Winter boot. It's got all the makings of a feminine ensemble with a quirky, boyish twist. Aya Noguchi for Uniqlo Dip Balcony and Bed Tunic Dress ($50) + Diane von Furstenberg Sapna Lace-Up Leather Wedge Ankle Boots ($378)
If you tend to err on the side of great basics, the only thing we'll suggest is a burgundy-hued pair of jeans. The cool denim silhouette will last you all season long, and the camel boat is a timeless investment. Vanessa Bruno Wool-Blend Tweed Coat ($820) + Mango Coated Cropped Jeans ($70)
The easiest way to take on a color combo is with accessories. We're loving the festive approach — just in time for the holidays — to this blouse and earring coordination. The girlie peplum blouse gets the polished finish it needs for statement burgundy earrings. Burberry London Tiered Blouse ($421) + BaubleBar Burgundy Gem Drops ($24)
Don't feel like you need to adhere to solid burgundy tones. Case in point: this fun Marni blocked print, which is perfect for pairing with heavy-knit outerwear. If you want to give this look a more sophisticated vibe, then add a pair of ankle-strap pumps. Marni Medium Sleeve Dress ($1,000) + DKNY Henna Double Breasted Knit Cardigan ($450)
