There's something about the colour orange that makes it pretty intimidating to wear. It's brash, bold and at times far too in your face. However, when it's done well (like the outfits I've selected above) it's a dazzling colour for a hot summer, reflecting everything that is so appealing about the season - the warmth, relaxation and a more 'happy go lucky' approach to life.
If the prospect of wearing it still seems daunting (as it does for me) start with one piece, incorporate it into your wardrobe and begin building outfits around it. As you become more confident wearing it, I have a feeling that you will begin to love it.

Orange is very hard for me to wear, since I'm a ginger I'm always scared it looks a bit tacky. Burned orange and rusty orange go perfect though! x
Love Orange :) These are some stunning outfits xx
It may be bold but it is BEAUTIFUL!

love all dresses :)
Orange is a great alternative to red for a pop of color in your wardrobe. I just love it paired with gold or silver!

Love this! Everything you say about orange is so true. it's bold, daring, fabulous, but when done wrong, it looks awful and overwhelming :(. However, the color is so pretty and when you wear it with confidence and accessorize well, it looks great. Thanks for posting these pictures! They're so inspiring :)
I never used to be a fan of orange but as you know I'm now a huge fan. If I wan't already I would be now, what a stunning selection of shots - inspiration indeed.

Love this look- I think it is difficult to pull off bright orange. You do.
I have been all about ORANGE this summer!
Can not get enough!
I love your orange skirt, can't wait to see all the other ways to style it.
