What I'm buying for fall: Woolly red things

It's true. I've waxed rhapsodic about all things red about a zillion times. Red is my hangover helper, it's the color of 30 percent of my footwear, and I rarely leave the house without its bold, transformative shade on my lips. This season, however, I'm looking to red in a more grownup way. I want the power red of Sigourney Weaver in Working Girl as she glides through the work party making deals and eating men. I want Joan from Mad Men 's hypnotic wiggle dress red. I want the red that says, "Yes, gentlefolk, I'm fun and sexy, but I've got control of this room." I want red wool. Today on eBay, I found some pieces that fit my mission nicely, including this Pendleton wrap jacket(with jeans and loafers, all Sunday-casual like?), a perfect little Dior blazer, an expensive-but-unbelievably-adorable dress from Stella McCartney, a sophisticated chain-belt dress by Milly, and this fabulous vintage secretary suitwhich I'd belt and wear with tights and shiny, sexy black boots.
