Orange Crush... for your wardrobe and home!


I'm going to be honest:  the orange in my wardrobe is pretty much limited to university t-shirts.  But hey, I am loving emberglow- it's a lot warmer than hunting-season blaze orange or summer tangerine.  Here are some ways to work it into your closet and home if you're craving a little warmth this season.

For wardrobe inspiration, here are two of my favorite finds from Polyvore.  Unfortunately, most of the items on them are now out of stock- but we can still copy these looks!

 

Yep, it's the same basic idea in two separate (fabulous) outfits: basic white tee, gray cardigan, and jeans paired with animal print flats (remember when Oprah told us we all needed a pair?) and orange accessories.

Well hello there, super-bright trench coat!  This sweetness is $34.94 at Old Navy.

And for all your orange handbag needs...

  




Sonoma embroidered peasant top, $19.49 at Kohl's.  I like this one because unlike most peasant tops, it doesn't put cleavage on display- it's okay to wear to work!

Feeling really brave?  Rock some orange tights.

How about some orange for your home?

Threadleaf maple print by JoshFriedmanPhoto on Etsy... get the satisfaction of having a Japanese maple tree without having to wait for one to grow in your yard (is it weird that the mister and I have a wish list of trees we want to plant when we own land?)

Stacked pine frames by GrowthRing on Etsy (or DIY a little orange frame for somewhere special!)

Autumn glow chandelier by BootsNGus on Etsy... this is a masterpiece.
