Perhaps it is the Aggie in me, but I absolutely adore a splash of maroon…or burgundy as most non-Aggies would prefer.  Why burgundy?  Let us start with the fact that it is a slimming color, goes with pretty much anything, and looks good on everyone regardless of skin color.  I do not believe I can say the same about burnt orange.  I kid….but not really.Just last week, I was sporting the shade and received the approval from Austin jewelery designer Kendra Scott.  If she approves, it must be okay.  Right?!?

I am happy to report that this season is filled with bold burgundy.  While the color has been said to demonstrate opulence, here are some burgundy beauties at all price points.
