Orange is the New Black


Zara Coat. JCrew Chambray Top. Current Elliot Jeans.

Orange has forever been (and continues to be), one of my favorite colors. Like cheetah and leopard prints, this color is vibrant, bold and happy. You sure can't have a blah or boring day when wearing such a cheerful hue.

The hue of the jacket is so flattering on you, and very autumn perfect! The RM skull motif clutch is such a playful accessory!

I am also a huge orange fan, I once painted my office orange..don't do that though! There is definitely such a thing as too much orange :)

Alicia said...

@Sheree - haha, thanks for the advice - although an orange office does sounds fun! ;)

I always say that orange is my "power color" as I am a Leo! I always feel fierce in it! Also, that iphone case is adorable!

This coat is so pretty! I love the bold color! And it looks so nice against the chambray! Was just thinking this morning as I walked down the chilly street in my cropped sleeve blazer that it might be time to transition to real coats... fall is here!

i love it! especially when you have to wear coats all the time, black just gets boring. i used to have an awesome green one but lost it

Dana said...

So cute! I can't wear orange myself -- it hates me. I just posted some pics of my Current Elliot leopard jeans too! Loving those!

Alicia, you are looking happy and fabulous on the East coast! ;) I love your look! From jacket to jeans to iphone case! You make it totally complete!

Victoria said...

Orange/Coral are the best colors on me, believe it or not, and that is a tough color--but you do it well! I have a jacket similar from Nordstrom. You've inspired me to take it out once our SF Indian Summer turns back to fog. Miss you here in SF!

I really agree with you - love orange. It's definitely the new neutral (along with animal prints...) you can wear it with anything! This coat is beautiful... I continue to be amazed by what Zara has been putting out there... want everything!

Gahhhhh I love this outfit. I want it all. You are single-handedly convincing me that cheetah-print jeans are a thing real people can wear. Oh, and the chambray top? So ESD-worthy. xxoo

Orange has definitely grown on me this fall- particularly a burnt orange or terracotta. That and other "spicy" colours.
