Hey- did you know I am obsessed with Orange is the New Black? I watched the whole series in 3 days or less, then watched it again (just to make sure I didn’t miss anything), then I started the book, and now I Google everyday second when season 2 will be on Netflix. Yup… totally addicted. So is my boyfriend/mom/sister/friends/roommates/everyone else on planet earth.
& although we all OBVIOUSLY know nothing will ever be the new black, orange is getting pretty damn popular these days. Whether it’s because of the show or not, who knows. I’d like to think that’s the case though. After all, life often imitates art. Right?
Regardless if you watch the show or not (#FAIL), here are 10 drool-worthy pieces that are putting orange back on the fashion map.
1. Neon orange beanie found here, cause a girl can never have too many beanies… IMO.
2. Put away your long layered neck candy this Fall, and instead opt for a fun bright & spiked choker necklace in orange.
3. I mean, if MK&A designed it, you know it’s going to be good. I am dying over these mod orange lucite round sunnies by the Row.
4. Does anyone else think of a Creamsicle when they look at this chic white and orange satchel? Delish.
5. Fall couldn’t get here any sooner, I need some chunky knits (including this one) in my life stat. Like yesterday. I am bored with tank tops :(.
6. This orange maxi skirt seriously kills me. The color/ the silhouette/ the high waist (perfect for crop tops)- it’s a 10.
7. I know- these “Homies” tees by Brian Lichtenberg have been swirling around the world of fashion for a hot minute now, but IDC- I still think they are fab. Especially in orange, with the rolled up sleeves.
8. Did you know orange is an uber flattering color when it comes to make-up/beauty. I personally love neon orange toes (this color), and a bright lip-pop with a matte orange lippy.
9. Silk shorts, in this heat, have become my BFF, & these cute little tangerine lace trimmed babies would do pretty well in my wardrobe right about now.
10. The color combo of these Jeffrey Campbell ankle booties are out of this world. Brown suede and shocking bright neon orange? I need these… like yesterday.
