orange is the new orange

Some days ago it was still spring (/irony) and I wore this maxi dress with my tweed jacket and a summery orange trench. I'm glad that orange is trendy once more, as it's one of my favourite colours and I think it would be joyful to see more people wearing it!, it's so vitaminic!.
If you don't feel like wearing a lot of orange colour, I recommend you to try some accessories. A scarf or bag can make a difference!. I had not any problem in finding a bunch of orange scarves in the last charity market I visited, so I think that this trend could be easily incorporated into any wardrobe with second hand or vintage pieces. Will you give it a try?
Wishing you a visible and colorful week!

Hace unos pocos días todavía era primavera (/ironía) y me puse este vestido largo con una chaqueta de paño y la gabardina de verano naranja. Me alegra mucho que el naranja vuelva a ser tendencia, es uno de mis colores favoritos y creo que sería mucho más divertido ver más gente llevándolo, es un color muy vitamínico!
Si no os apetece vestiros de naranja de arriba a abajo, recomiendo probar con los accesorios. Un pañuelo o un bolso pueden marcar la diferencia!. Por mi parte, encontré fácilmente un manojo de pañuelos naranja en el último mercadillo de segunda mano que visité, así que creo que este color puede incorporarse en cualquier armario con unas cuantas piezas usadas o vintage. Yo estoy lista para lanzarme a esta tendencia, ¿y vosotros?
Os deseo una semana muy visible y colorida.

  3. Orange is definitely one of your best colours. But now I think of it, what colour don't you suit?
    I love the word "vitaminic"! I imagine in the death throws of winter it definitely helps. A little warm sunshine into your day.

  4. YES to orange! I love it and always have orange pieces in my wardrobe. You're so right - accessories are a great way to incorporate this colour into one's outfits. I love the term "vitaminic"!

    I always gasp over that last dress - it's one of my favourites of yours. I just love the graphic print and the cut is perfect on you! Hope you're having a good week!
