Embracing Colour. How to Wear Orange This Spring.
Image by woahstyle.com
There’s nothing fresher than bold pop of colour for spring. With sunnier days, warm weather, and flowers blooming, adding just one piece of colour to your outfit can instantly shift your mood and brighten your spirits.
I recently got a vintage Evelyne PM bag in that classic Hermes orange and I've craving all things orange since.
I even ended up getting a vintage Hermes Avalon blanket (from LXRCO.com) to bring some colour to my home.
My secret to tying in colour is the same with my wardrobe and home interiors: keep everything else neutral and focus on one colour to make a statement.
For clothing, you can most certainly get away with just a single accent piece. In the instance of the outfit that I'm wearing here, if I was to wear a white t-shirt with the orange bag, or, the orange knit vest and a tan-coloured bag, the outfit would still work well.
However, I find the two orange pieces styled together (bag and knit) elevates the outfit so much more.
With home decor, I prefer to add a couple of accents to tie everything together. An orange blanket with some bright orange ranunculus flowers in a statement Anissa Kermiche boob vase.
Again the rest of the decor is neutral and so the colour stands out in the space while staying sophisticated.
I find playing around with colour to be the simplest way to change up my wardrobe and my home without the commitment.
What’s your go-to colour for spring?
My secret to tying in colour is the same with my wardrobe and home interiors: keep everything else neutral and focus on one colour to make a statement.
A few of my favourite things - these two Anissa Kermiche vases are more like pieces of art in my eyes. Here I’ve styled them with my favourite coffee table books and a sandalwood scented candle from YSL.
