6. GO VINTAGE WITH RUST HUE
Is that just me the rust and terracotta hue always seems so retro and historic, I’ll think of the vintage clay pots and iron oxide. (Alright not the best examples…)
That said, vintage wear is definitely the time for these hues to shine.
Compare to the classic vintage shades like wine red, teal, and forest green, the rust hue just adds an extra dash of boyishness to the ensemble.
Seriously, I rarely wear pinafore dresses as some of them can look juvenile.
But a rust pinafore dress? HELL YES. It just looks playful as it looks sophisticated. Such a dream.
7. LOOK ALL GLAM UP IN RUST
For the ladies who want to strike the perfect tone of dressy but not fancy, you can certainly achieve a happy balance with a rust hue.
As a decent and mature shade, that can easily balance out the boldness.
A rose gold silk dress seems to be too luxe and feminine for the lazy weekend.
Switch it out to a reddish-brown shade and instantly it’s much more wearable.
Thanks me later!
8. STAY ARTISTIC IN TERRACOTTA PANTS
If you are a fan of the androgynous or artsy style or BOTH, rust-hue pants just serve you well.
Whether you team it with a retro graphic tee or crisp white dress shirt, it just spruces up the look instantly.
Believe it or not, color plays a huge role.
While people will think grey jogger pants look laid-back, switch it to the unique terracotta pants and people will think you’ve given thought to your look.
Yes, ladies, the difference is real.

Animal prints can be lousy but rust hue is here to keep things sassy yet classy.

10. KEEP THINGS MINIMAL
If you are not used to wearing a reddish-brown hue, the experience can be overwhelming when you wear a one-piece rust dress for the first time.
To ease in the hue smoothly, keeping it minimal is a good point to start.

Speaking of my favorite, the rust beret hat is such a darling.
To achieve a classic French chic style, you can’t really go wrong with a classic trench coat and ankle boots.
11. ROCK A TERRACOTTA MONOCHROMATIC LOOK
If you think rust hue serves you well, why not layer it up for a monochromatic look? Trust me, it’s not as intimidating as you think.
For a head-turning winter look, team a rust corduroy co-ord set with a lighter shade of bag and just scream “Chilly day can’t stop me from bringing my A-game”.
Simply savage.
12. GOLD & RUST IS THE PERFECT COMBO
Every great ensemble needs a great accessory. Some girls may wonder, what colors of necklaces go with a rust shade top? I’d say gold tone.
