orange crush: two ways










A bright orange jacket can seem intimidating -- something that most would pair with similar browns or creams, (myself included). This time though, I wanted to show how versatile this color can be with some color and pattern. I love how the intensity of the orange chills out with touches of lavender, corals and blues, making it a new staple for spring. Plus it's sweatshirt comfy.

Today is the last day to vote for me in the Wallis Contest (I talked about here), and it has definitely been a fun ride. Not only have I stepped beyond my comfort zone, but I've fallen in love with a new brand -- their mission, affordable price range and of course their beautiful pieces, are just so me. Thank you so much to everyone who has supported me, and thank you to Wallis for this crazy opportunity! The chance to represent such a great brand has been a dream come true.

>>But be sure to send one more vote my way! Contest ends tonight at 12PM<<

  1. Love that blazer! and the funny thing is sometimes having something bright like that makes it a neutral, haha. I have a super bright purse that goes with everything just because it's so outrageous :D
