orange you glad?


I decided that I needed to escape my comfort zone today, and brave a little venture into the realm of orange.  It's not that I don't like orange. Orange can be quite lovely. It's just that I tend to be a yellow/gray/red kind of girl (with a little turquoise/seafoam thrown in for good measure).  Today, however, I pulled a forgotten orange dress out of the darkest depths of my closet, and am giving poor little orange my full, undivided attention.


1. Stunning photography by Ailera Stone  2. Pretty orange lips from Marc by Marc Jacobs Spring 2011.  3. Kinda amazing knit necklace by Charm and Chain.  4. Chic Simon Page 'Amaze' poster.  5. Cheery pinwheel flower curtains from Anthropologie. 6. Super modern Nelson Ball clock.  7. Cute as a button owl cookie jar from Anthropologie.  8. Fabulous vintage Orange amplifier (the guitar player in the band my fiance works for uses one of these for his practice amp!).


Is it really Monday already?  Sigh.  Have a lovely day, darlings.

  7. I go to Clemson University, so at least half my closet contains orange :) Definitely one of my favorite colors, even on non-football game days!
