Trend Watch: Cherry Red

October 8, 2025 | Posted in Blog


When it comes to the colder months, who doesn’t love a richer, warmer colour palette?

Here at Your Dream Bag, we’re all about wearing cosy colours with a chic twist, and nothing encompasses that like cherry red. 

If butter yellow was the colour of spring and summer, cherry red has to be our pick for autumn into winter, so in this blog, we’re taking a look at the best ways to incorporate it into your wardrobe and home. 

Celebs who make cherry red work

Cherry red isn’t just on runways, it’s on red carpets too, with multiple A-listers loving the look. Here are just a few of our favourite ways celebs have styled this trending shade.

Poppy Delevingne

While attending a private V&A event, Poppy wore a gorgeous pair of oversized leather trousers in cherry red. They fit her perfectly and took her fit to the next level. We think these are a great alternative if you don’t want to wear a dress or skirt to an evening out. 

Jennifer Aniston

Jennifer is truly a style icon, so of course, she knew exactly how to wear this colour. At a swanky event in LA, she paired a cherry red with ruby red flowers midi dress with a pair of matching heels, and it was giving effortless glam. Something we love about this shade of red is that it goes with a host of other colours, including different shades of red. 

Rihanna

RiRi, most likely thanks to her beauty brand, Fenty, has become the queen of the cherry red lip. It’s so flattering on her and is the perfect pick for your pout in the colder months too. It’s sultry but fun, what’s not to love?

Chris Pine

Chris has worn this hue in suit-form to a few of his film premieres and, in a sea of standard tuxedos, it stood out without being too much, making the actor look incredibly suave. He’s clearly a fan of the colour as he’s worn loafers in this shade just to pick up some coffee. Why not dress up for your day-to-day tasks? We love that for him. 

Miquita Oliver

While wearing a white mini dress, Miquita took her red carpet look to the next level with a little beaded bag in our new favourite colour. This contrast of white and red is stunning, and we love this rich shade glittering in the light. 

Selena Gomez

If you’re looking for autumnal nail inspo or a subtle way to wear this red, look no further than Selena Gomez. She’s worn cherry red nails a few times, including to the BAFTAs and they really suit her vibe. 

Dua Lipa

Cherry red hair may sound a little intense at first but hear us out. Dua Lipa has warm undertones, so this colour looked seriously amazing on her, so we’re fully on board with the vision. It’s vibrant but still natural enough that it won’t feel like a huge change, especially if you’re a brunette like Dua. 

Our favourite cherry red goodies

From the perfect accessory to a cute plush companion, here’s our fave cherry red buys. You can get all of these in our Cherry Red Bundle btw!

Ganni Bou Small in Burgundy

The Ganni Bou truly has our heart and, in this shade, we’re completely obsessed. Sleek and unique, this bag is instantly recognisable with its shape and twisted knot handle. It does come in a range of colours, but you know which one we’re currently in love with. 

Wear it with or without the adjustable strap, either way it looks good with a number of outfits and even the small size will fit all of your handbag essentials

Elemis Black Cherry Pro Collagen Cleansing Balm

Yes, you can bring cherry red into your skincare as well. The Elemis Pro Collagen Cleansing Balm has a reputation that proceeds it, and for good reason, it works like magic, gently melting away makeup and impurities. Now you can get it in a luxurious black cherry, almond and vanilla scent that soothes and creates a spa-like experience. 

It’s rich and creamy, feeling nice and gentle on your face, boosting hydration and nourishing your skin. It’s a treat for all your senses, and we think it would be just what you needed at the end of a long day. 

Jellycat Amusable Cherry 

If you’re not aware of Jellycats, you may be living under a rock because they’ve been having a moment for a couple years now. They’re ridiculously cute and we’re quite fond of the Amusable Cherry…c’mon, just look at it. Aw!

Soft and cuddly, this little guy would make the perfect gift for so many different types of people but we won’t blame you if you just treat yourself.

Glossier Balm Dotcom Black Cherry Lip Balm

Lips can easily get overlooked when it comes to skincare but the Glossier Balm Dotcom makes it easy to moisturise your pout on the daily. The Black Cherry variant has a gorgeous tone, so you can wear it out while still taking care of your lips.

It sits so comfortably on the lips, you literally feel them being nourished, plus it has a fruity, sweet scent that matches the shade perfectly. 

Hotel Chocolat Double Chocolat Cherries

Obviously, you can’t wear these in any way but they taste so good, we just had to include them as a tasty treat. You deserve it after all!

The Hotel Chocolat Double Chocolat Cherries are a decadent taste sensation. They’re candied cherries that have a milk chocolate layer and then dark chocolate too – yum!
