Seeing Red

The colour red is one that imparts a multitude of sentiments and responses. It's representative of power, blood, pain, and love, amongst other emotions, making it one of the most powerful colours in the world. The ability to harness the colour red through beauty and fashion has proven an extremely persuasive way to evoke different emotions, not only within myself but also within those around me. 

Red is the color of life. It’s blood, passion, rage. It’s menstrual flow and after birth. Beginnings and violent end. Red is the color of love. Beating hearts and hungry lips. Roses, Valentines, cherries. Red is the color of shame. Crimson cheeks and spilled blood. Broken hearts, opened veins. A burning desire to return to white.

Seeing Red A Wishlist of Red Beauty and Style Items from Amazon.ca created by Toronto Style Blogger, Bratty B

As I step away from my monochromatic palette and introduce colour to my wardrobe and beauty routine, I've come to feel a power and pride that I can only attribute to my fondness of red. But given my comfortability wearing a minimal colour palette, rather than thrust myself into the world of crimson, I've opted for red accessories and makeup that are boldly empowering. 

With such a wide selection of fashion and beauty products, Amazon.ca is my favourite place to shop for red accents and accessories. From apple red nail polish to futuristic chrome makeup brushes to Supreme phone cases, there's no limit to the confidence-boosting power of the colour red. The following are a few of my favourite crimson gems currently available on Amazon.ca.
