JCrew, San Francisco

Marc Jacobs, Thakroon, Nanette Lapore, Sophie Theallet, etc. are a few designers offering  a variety of styles in shades of orange.  Overcoats, dresses, shoes, and handbags are flooding stores.  Sephora has orange eye makeup and orange eye lashes to add punch to your persona if you need it.

Will orange be around for a long time?
Orange comes and goes. It was very fashionable in the 20’s 60’s 80’s.

Can you wear an entire outfit in orange?
Might be a bit too much but some women can probably pull it off. Orange can cheer you up and shows you have confidence.

Who looks good in the color orange?

Orange looks especially great on females with warm skin tones.

Who should avoid orange clothing?
If you are a big woman don’t wear orange clothing. It will only draw attention to your size and make you look larger. Stick to orange accessories like a scarf with orange or an orange handbag to give you an up dated look.
