Pantone Tangelo Orange

Hello and welcome, thanks for stopping by my blog!

All of the bright, warm colors are trending this season,

since Pantone named Tangelo Orange, Empire Yellow,

and Love Bird (a bright yellow green)-all colors for 2023

Are you favoring any of these bright citrusy hues for summer? 

This week I am styling two outfits in Tangelo Orange 🍊 

 and as it turns out, I paired the color both times with white

Reminds me of Creamsicle ice cream

The color Tangelo has really taken off for spring,

and the shops are full of it in all sorts of refreshing and creative pieces

M first casual outfit is built around an orange and white semi sheer print blouse 

It is a bib front design, embellished with brass tone studs

 Worn over a white camisole with white ankle cropped denim jeans

Such pretty attention to detail on this blouse

Carrying my 60's vintage pebble grain orange leather clutch

For jewelry, I chose a bold embossed flower design brass cuff bracelet,

my favorite summer half daisy earrings from Betsy Johnson,

and an arrow collar necklace

Fringed raffia band strap wedge sandals

with sparkly gold details to finish this summertime look 

Next, a skirt in a geometric print in Tangelo and white

I like the the knife pleat style of this skirt,

 but proportionally, I think this outfit is not the best-

I will have to try again, maybe with a shorter top

I find midi skirts a bit tricky to wear, 

and would like this skirt better if it was knee length or a full on maxi

Anyway, worn here with a white jacket with short puffed sleeves

and flapped cargo hip pockets

A turquoise bag seemed fresh and summery 

together with the bright orange in the skirt

 

I picked gold geometric jewelry to match the vibe of the skirt's print

Bright gold tone reticulated V-shaped link necklace,

vintage 1960s earrings that were a wonderful Etsy find

and an expansion bracelet of turquoise bars 

White crossed ankle strap sandals trimmed with a touch of blue print

 to complete the outfit 

Possibly part of the inspiration for all of the spring and summer orange

A bouquet of Tiger Lilies from the garden back 

We have a growing population of white tail deer 

in the habitat on the island where I live

They normally don't eat out of the flower beds, 

 but this year, they munched the majority of the Lilly buds right off the stems!

Not just in our garden, but all the neighbors, too

I was lucky to salvage a few for a bouquet and brought them safely inside

Next year i will be prepared with something to spray on the flowers 

that the 🦌 do not like so well

Missing them until (hopefully) next summer! 

Hope everyone enjoys their week!
