LET'S TALK ABOUT ORANGE

Hanneli makes me think a brunette could carry off... But then again I think she could work just about anything!

Let me start by saying, I'm not much of a color person. I am tackling A Pair and a Spare's Wardrobe Rehab at the moment (that's another blog post) and couldn't help but notice the 'rainbow' of black, greys, navy and white in my closet.

Short and sweet of it is I'm really craving a splash of something in there.

Enter my day job editor, fresh from a trip to a Denver J.Crew, wearing one very bright orange sweater. Great pumpkin she was most definitely not - ever since I've been obsessed. But the question is: can I rock the orange too? Should I start with an accessory or go full force? This is clearly a serious decision - one which will probably end with me handing a pile of orange back to the dressing room attendant, but it's worth a try...
