The reasoning

Why it works. Black supports a wide range of accents. Burgundy gives this version a deep, restrained red note. The bag stays black so the shoe is the only accent.

Wear it to dinners, theatre, parties.

Styling note. A black bag keeps the accent focused on the shoes. A burgundy bag can also work if you prefer a repeated accent.
