Stop hiding in the beige!

Stop hiding in oatmeal tones. Right now, 2026 is seeing a total takeover by Cherry Lacquer. We are finally done with the ‘quiet luxury’ era that made everyone look like a background extra. This winter is about a red that actually has some teeth.

For years, we played it safe with Wine and Burgundy. Those matte, dusty reds felt like a glass of stale Merlot-boring, silent, and far too ‘safe.’ But this season, that look has fermented into a serious visual punch. This new Glazed Cherry finish is high-octane and glassy. It completely kills off the dusty ‘Old Money’ vibe. The standout piece is the ‘Liquid Candy’ bag.

Black-cherry patent leather that acts as a glossy slap against a heavy charcoal coat. We see this same energy in the Cherry Bomber, a cropped, high-shine jacket making traditional trench coats look ancient. On the street, the ‘Ballet 2.0’ replaces flimsy  slippers with buckled, square-toed flats paired with thick wool socks.

Even the ‘Cherry Jelly’ nails have gone 3D, using translucent pigments to trap light like syrup. So, here is the bottom line for your January wardrobe you can keep camouflaging into the drywall with your greige knits, or you can finally wake up. Go grab that Cherry Lacquer bag. Get the 3D jelly finish at the salon. Stop trying to blend in and start leaning into the gloss.

This move is about reclaiming your own space. In 2026, looking ‘expensive’ means looking alive. The beige era is dead and buried. It is time to see red. Style it right Pair your Liquid Candy bag with a grey wool coat. Match Cherry Jelly nails to a high-shine bomber jacket. Finish with buckled ballet flats and thick ivory socks.
