Orange (and gold) Crush

Friday, September 14, 2012















[dress: Ann Taylor, sandals: BC, belt: Calvin Klein, earrings: Anthropologie, bangles: Alex & Ani]

There's no two colors quite like orange and gold in the fall. Orange and gold are a power couple as the trees change colors and the air gets chillier. Now I realize I'm wearing a sundress and sandals, which is very summery, but when the weather here in NC is still sweltering hot, I can't incorporate too much "fall" into my daily outfits...except through color! You can never go wrong with a rich gold and a jewel-toned orange once the transition from summer to fall begins. This is one of my all-time favorite dresses and I absolutely love wearing it - it's so flattering! The touches of gold I added turn this summer dress into an early fall dress, I'll take any excuse to wear my favorite items over and over again. Happy weekend everyone!
