As I look at the window and am greeted with fog, it has suddenly dawned on me that fall has arrived and with fall comes new scents, flavors and a color palette. And since we are in the month of October (and I did just return from Amsterdam where the color of the country is orange) I decided I should really try to incorporate the color that I despise so much into my wardrobe.

I think the easiest way to incorporate orange for me would be in accessories. Accessories allow you the luxury of being bold and bright without being too trendy or over the top. I am loving all these varieties of orange goodies but am most definitely favoring the iPhone cover, as I am about to make the switch from blackberry to iPhone. It's a little bit edgy, fun, punk and perfect to set me apart from other iPhone users.

While the easy and safe route would be accessories, I would like to own one orange staple item. However my fair skin and light hair are not complimented by orange. So the trick is to find the right orange for you! For me, I veer towards the coral and the red-orange options. But if you are gonna go full out orange a scarf or shoes would be another great choice.
This fall I am really going to try face my fear of looking like a pumpkin and try out this orange trend. With options like the ones above I am pretty sure I can't go wrong! What are your thoughts on orange?
Gung-ho or steer clear?

I'm loving those MJ earrings! I just spray painted some picture frames a burnt orange color, they turned out so cute. I own 1 orange sweater but only have the guts to wear it on halloween! I may have to come out of my comfort zone as well.

i for one love orange and i think you'd look great in that color!
I've heard that it's kind of an it color, but I haven't been enticed that much though. I am more into the mustard yellow and cobalt blue. Orange never seems to go with my complexion. I love your finds though, especially the pinkish orange blouse and the gloves; mmmm leather....
