Burgundy, garnet, wine and dark berry colours look like they are going to be huge this autumn/winter, and personally I couldn't be more excited! As someone who wears a lot of black, these dark berry colours offer a softer and more up-to-date alternative. It's a versatile colour, working well with black, white and all shades of grey, as well as brights such as coral. I think it makes a look quite polished, and because it is such a rich colour by nature, you can buy cheaper pieces in it. I've already bought a £9.99 burgundy jumper from H&M which looks a lot more luxe than its price tag suggests. I bought some burgundy Leigh jeans from Topshop last year which will definitely be coming out this year!
It is going to be easy to accent outfits with this colour as well - dark wine coloured nails, deep berry lips. These colours are already dominating the autumn/winter clothes that are popping up in the high street shops, and Cheryl Cole has been seen rocking the burgundy/black partnership on several occasions recently.
I think it is a flattering shade for most hair colours as well. For information, the OPI nail polish in the photo above is "William Tell Me About It". I bought this shade in the Lena White sale in the summer and love it. I think it rivals the famous Lincoln Park After Dark as it is a slightly warmer version with more red/berry undertones.
