This was a first for me.. wearing ORANGE with my red / copper hair. I must admit, I was instantly drawn to the color — perhaps because I see orange everyday on my head. Orange made a statement this season on the runways, and I’ve been seeing it pop up more and more in stores and on social media, so  I wanted to try it out myself. Only two problems: my skin color and my hair color. Orange looks beautiful on bronzy ladies, but pulling off orange with my ginger palette is kind of a recipe for disaster.

The trick? Bringing in a B color story to soften the tang (pun intended, obviously.) Blues and pinks both compliment orange nicely, so I decided to layer on a teal blazer. The colors needed a degree of separation, so I layered a white sleeveless vest underneath to create a layered look.

I avoided black at all costs because orange and black = Halloween (not cute.) A brown bag adorned with a vintage navy scarf and nude heels finish off the look.

What do you think of my orange dress styling? Let me know in the comments! xx
