Orange. Yes, orange!
Don't run away just yet, it's not as scary as it sounds. Whispers of this zesty colour making an appearance this A/W have been prominent since the designers showcased their collections earlier in 2011. The colour was cleverly used by a handful of designers to create an instant impact in their catwalk shows, and it did just that. So much so, that ever since, everyone has been predicting it's appearance on the high street and finally it has arrived!
There's no doubting the fact that this colour will present a challenge, but if worn with caution there should be something here for everyone. Here are the basic rules that I will be following:
1. As a ginger, orange on the top half is a HUGE no-no. Unless you are doing a Carrot or Orange for fancy dress - avoid at all costs. If in doubt, google 'Catherine Tate Gingers For Justice' and watch the clip for yourself!
2. Orange accessories are a cool, easy to wear way of keeping up with the trend without over doing it. I love the Topman bracelet and Nike hi-tops featured below.
3. Unless you want to look like a glowstick - do not wear with yellow/pink/green or any neon!
