Marsala jeans, pants, tights and skirts are also favourites of women worldwide as they can be paired with many colour available in the colour wheel. In clothing, marsala has also proven to be visually slimming and one is sure to look sexier sporting this shade. A marsala dress exudes elegance and class, yet enhances the beauty of the wearer. It is also a favourite of the stars for red carpet events while it can also be seen prominently on models in ad campaigns.

Using marsala with other colours

Be careful while using marsala with very light colours such as sky blue, yellow, light pink and light green as they won’t complement each other that well. Marsala works well with black or even bright, jewel-toned shades of red, blue, and green. Also, since it is a dark colour, it makes vibrant colours really pop out. However, go for this combo in jeans and only if you want to look funky. Other colours that go with it are teal, ink blue and grey. The most favourite combo of them all is black and marsala.

Shoes

Women own a multitude of shoes including sandals, sneakers, casual and dress shoes in all colours, and now they can incorporate this shade in everything. Marsala footwear complements and enhances every type of clothing, whether casual or formal. According to the latest fashion a pair of marsala boots and pumps is a must! Both of these can further on be paired up with every colour possible. They go well with blue, white and even red jeans (if you have the guts to pull that off). Apart from that, marsala stilettos are a necessity for formal occasions.

Handbags

If a bag is not harmonious with our clothes, it will appear very strange to others even if it’s a branded bag. The safest bet while shopping for bags is buying one in black as it makes one appear more attractive and is a harmonious shade. However, for this year a marsala coloured bag is a replacement for a black bag. So buy one in this hue and you can use it with every piece of clothing you own.

Following the trend of big and medium sized bags you could just buy one marsala bag, whether it’s of pure leather or a replica of leather is your preference. And that one bag can be used for daily wear. For special occasions buy a marsala clutch with silver sequins or diamantes on it and you are all ready and set for an evening out.

Accessorise

Marsala accessories can go with any shade, even extremely light shades like pinks since the ongoing trend is to mix and match. Hair bands are a fashion must for people in and above their teens, so grab your wallets and head over to park towers. You’ll find a range of marsala hair bands including ones with flowers. You can also wrap your wrist in marsala with a simple bracelet. Also purchasing marsala pony, hair clips, scrunchees etc will be enough for at least a year. Also, marsala belts are a fashion add on that many can opt for.

Make up

Last but not least is the perfect marsala eyes look. They have been a favourite for models during fashion shoots and ramp shows. And don’t forget to pucker up with a marsala lipstick. That’s a must have this season if you want to get your pout in on the trend.
