Orange

This beautiful colour is big news for Spring/Summer. This trend has been seen in lipsticks through to lingerie. A combination of red and yellow, orange holds similar characteristics; it carries the heat of red without the aggression, and the uplifting nature of yellow. Perfect for this time of year, orange is a popular choice to wear on the cusp of winter, beginning of summer with heat on the way.

 If you’re looking for an inexpensive way to reinvent your wardrobe, colour is the easiest way to enliven any basics. Seen as a warm colour, wear when hanging out with your friends as orange is a creative, sociable colour. This season try ‘Clementine’ and ‘Orange Spice’ to add energy to your outfit. Beautiful when worn with earthy colours such as ‘Gluhwein’ and ‘Midnight’, this accent colour is sure to give you that extra boost of energy you need when taking on the day.
