Today's Everyday Fashion: Orange + Pink














































I've been seeing orange and pink outfit pairings everywhere lately! So this weekend I decided to give it try with my own clothes. I wore this outfit to dinner with the girls on Saturday night. I made one small change - I wore these emerald green earrings (which you can see in the pic below) to add a bit more color. It's a fairly simple look, but so cheerful and I love it. Orange + pink - too much color, or totally your style?

  6. Love the pink and orange combination, here is another cute orange skirt from gap, the cotton eyelet look is casual enough for day but could be dressed up at night

  9. Love it!! The white background totally makes it pop 5x more which would make me a little hesitant BUT seeing your picture from wearing it out totally makes the hesitation go away. Looks great!!!

  10. This is more color than I'd normally try (especially as pale as I am), but you make it so wearable, and it looks absolutely fabulous with your tan!

  11. I have those combos in my closet but I'm hesitant to give it a try at work. It might be a bit too much. But I think it's perfect for going out!

  13. I love pink and orange together! I was getting ready to wear that combo this week but today I woke up to rain. Boo. You look awesome!

  14. Love this look! I'd have to chose one or the other for work, but I would secretly wish the entire day I could wear the outfit like this! Love love love the color!!

  15. My strategy for MJR Sales is just to check the New Arrivals - that's where you find the best stuff! The search function isn't the best, but it's the MODA SHEER 3/4 SLEEVE BLOUSE. (I actually just ordered it in blue, too!) Product ID is 425443.

  17. I love color, but typically only use two at a time and complete the look with neutrals. I love the pink and orange combo and plan on trying it myself.

  18. Love this color combo! Super cute idea for spring/summer! You look amazing!

  19. This is an awesome outfit that I totally would rock. Did I notice you wore turquoise earrings in the on-the-town pic? 

    ReplyDelete
  20. Thanks Lora! Yep, I switched out to emerald earrings right before I left - I talk about it/link to the earrings in my post! :-)

  22. I think your outfits are gorgeous but it's seriously a lot of colour. I'd love to be able to do this but it would never work in my environment. I'll continue to live vicariously through you!

  23. Thanks so much! Love your blog, by the way. I read you every morning :)

  24. I like your outfit better than the inspiration!  I love this colour combo.

  25. No way, not too much! I love this combination. And it looks so chic when worn with classic, fitted pieces like you did here!

  26. LOVE orange & pink. I think it might be my favourite colour combo ever. Needless to say, I love this outfit :)

    ReplyDelete
  27. This is one color combo I plan on trying soon! It's so feminine and fun!

    ReplyDelete
  28.  I think it's fantastic that would you look at that outfit and think "needs more color", and then add emerald earrings.  And then totally rock it! 

    ReplyDelete
  29. I know. I think I may have some kind of color addiction at this point. The earrings are small though, right? LOL. :-)

    ReplyDelete
  30. I also think the skirt is a bit too short for work. But for a girls night out, I say rock the color! :-)

  31. Cuteness, thanks for the link!

  32. I love combining orange and pink! You look great!

  33. I have that exact skirt and love it! I am now searching for pink blouse to go with it per your wonderful styling. I also have paired it with a black and white polka dot shirt from Loft. I put these shoes with it and it makes a stellar outfit (note, Loft has sales all the time so wait until these are at least 30% off!)

  34. The Color-Blocking WITHIN your buckled sandals/feet actually kind of............ MIRRORS............ (The Rest Of) You, J.!!    First, there's your beautiful DARK brown hair with it's LIGHTER ash-brown highlights............ *reflected by* the DARK (pewter-colored?) buckles/black soles/black heels, and the LIGHTER (sand-colored) straps of your rockin' sandals!!    Secondly, there's your lovely hot-PINK silk blouse............ *reflected by* your deep-PINK toe polish!!    Third, and last, there's your vibrant ORANGE skirt............ *reflected by* the ORANGE platforms in your sandals!!

    After reading your blog from (almost) the time you started, I STILL honestly "just can't get over" how darn *skilled* you are in Fashion Design............ (i.e., particularly without  *A.*N.*Y.*  formal Fashion Education/Training either!!)............ and how, $$-price-wise, you make YOUR extraordinary Outfit Designs............ shopping-A.C.C.E.S.S.I.B.L.E. ............ to us ALL, J.!!    'Can't tell you how many of your fashion ideas I've used-used-USED~~~~*thank you* so much!!

  35. Oh Rosanna, you are just too kind!! I'm telling ya, I'm not doing this website because I think I have any fashion skills whatsoever, that is for sure haha! I'm so glad it inspires people to give new things a try though. That's all I ask. :-) Thank you again for being sweet!

  36. I love this bright color combination! I just bought a shirt that same shade of pink and looking forward to pairing it with a bright green skirt! The orange-pink is such a fun color combo and I like the idea of wearing orange on the bottom since it's not quite as flattering of a color to my coloring!
