Bordeaux, Merlot…Oxblood?

  • dress: Land’s End
  • scarf: gift (from Italy)
  • boots: vintage Etienne Aigner (thrifted)
  • watch: Michael Kors
  • earrings: Target
I’m especially glad that I bought these bordeaux colored boots last year now that oxblood is suddenly the color of the season. But I would like to formally petition against that horrendous name. Must we call it something that calls to mind entrails and beasts of burden? No. We should not. Bordeaux, merlot, burgundy, maroon, wine, anything. But not oxblood. Who’s with me?
