As a kid, you like the "pretty" colors - pinks, purples, teals, etc - not orange. I also remember them telling me my make up colors were neutrals - browns, blacks and coral/orange. Devastating!
Fast forward 20 years...I can't get enough of orange! I love it. It's so bright and cheery. It looks great with all colors: golds, yellows, greens, whites, etc. The only color I stay away from with orange is black - you know, the whole Halloween thing. Black accents look great, but if you are head-to-toe black and orange, you might as well walk around with a bowl of candy and a trick or treat bag! :)
I randomly checked out Hollister a few weeks ago and found some super cute dresses on sale. Since I am collecting dresses for my upcoming Hawaii trip in 10 DAYS - sorry, I'm excited - I stocked up on a few.
I got four lovely dress - this one (but navy and white) and this one. I also got a gingham one but it's no longer online. I am loving this one too...is it too weird to have two gingham dresses???
My favorite of the four is this orange beauty! I wore it out and paired it up with some fun tortoise accents, a La Mer Wrap watch (love) and a bright green lace necklace (of course). If only the 10 year old me could see me now! My things have changed...
Featured Items: Hollister Dress // Lace Necklace - My Etsy Store // Michael Kors Tortoise Bangle // J Crew Flats //

BTW, I also wore neutral makeup...all browns! :)
Are there things you are wearing now that you swore you would never wear?
