Knock, knock

Who’s there?

Orange.

Orange who?

Orange you glad I didn’t make a lame knock knock joke?

Oh shit.

So it appears I’ve become rather fond of the color orange. It started a couple months ago with the orange bedroom and has made its way into my wardrobe, as well.

(Next up is orange eyeshadow! It’s all the rage! You heard it here first!)

Orange just seems to GO with everything, more so than any other color. I feel like whenever I’ve got a meh outfit on, I can add something orange and POW! GLITTER MUSIC! Instant cute outfit.

Let’s take a look and some orange-and-awesome color combos, shall we?

My favorite combo, orange and turquoise (total BFFs these two):
2.6.11 - Day 93 - Brunch!
I should have worn my big turquoise cuff, dammit. Also, look who’s wearing flippy-floppies in February, bitches!

Then there’s orange and olive green, not quite as BFFs as orange and turquoise, but close friends nonetheless:
11.8.10 - Day 48

Here’s a picture of the same dress, but with accessorized with an orange flower pin:
12.7.10 - Day 63
Pin purchased from Just Expressive’s Etsy shop.

And here we’ve got orange and…I guess this shirt is purple? I’m not exactly sure, but I do know I should have bought one in every color (mom rule number one!) because it is the best maternity tank* ever:
1.6.11 - Day 78
*And by maternity tank, I mean it’s a junior’s size extra-large Xhiliration tank from Target, obvs.

Now I’m thinking of all the other orange-and-awesome possibilities I can come up with. And also pondering how I can incorporate more orange clothes into my wardrobe. And orange shoes! And orange purses! And and and…I have a problem.

(My apologies for the grainy picture quality. I take most of these pictures in the work bathroom with my iPhone for my Wardrobe Remix 365 project over on Flickr. The idea of the project was to try to scour the depths of my closet and wear more of what I already own, but it’s basically turned into a How Many More Times Can I Wear This Same Sweater Dress And Leggings? Spring cannot come soon enough.)

    Clearly your remix project should be renamed, how little can I look like I am pregnant.

    Orange + turquoise = Miami Dolphins colors. Which is one of the main reasons that I agree to root for them.

    Ahh, I am loving all this orange. I’ve noticed recently how much red I wear (due to The Put-Together Project), and orange seems like a pretty easy swap. Right?

  4. Alyssa says:

    wow lady, you’re lookin super good!! 🙂

  5. You’re, like, the cutest ever. I wear bigger than a juniors’ XL when I’ve NOT pregnant, bish.

    I love using shoes for the color pop of an outfit (this assumes that I regularly put together “outfits,” which might be stretching the truth a little). Here’s my pick for orange shoes:
