Orange is this season's surprise colour. Making
a statement on the catwalks of Spring/Summer 14, Orange came in a variety of
shades, from dusty brick to coral hues, and there was nothing it didn’t
touch. Personally, I think it’s a great summer trend and one I have made sure
is featuring in my wardrobe! Everything from evening dresses to nail polish,
from sandals to clutch bags, Orange has made its mark. But, one thing to be
aware of is not looking tangoed. We all know what being too heavy handed with
the fake tan can look like… So make sure it’s a feature in your look, and not
taking over.

Picking a staple orange piece, I chose
these shorts from Zara, which are perfect for summer. As a more going out look,
I teamed it with a white bralet but then adding a jacket over the top to
complete the look. I have to admit, when I first saw this jacket in River
Island I fell in love, but when I saw the price tag I questioned whether I really
wanted to spend that on a jacket. Taking it to the changing room, I thought I
have to give it a chance, and that was it, I was sold. Spending this amount on
one item can seem daunting, but think of it as an investment. This jacket can
be worn time and time again, in the day teamed with jeans, or in the evening
over your summer dress. Picking out the pastel colours in the jacket, I paired it with cigarette
trousers and stilettos for an evening out.
