Great idea, right? But I have to admit, after my own experimentation, that not all red-and-orange combinations are created equal! Here's my take on it...
The first one was such an overpowering combo, I cropped most of the orange out of the picture! But I love the second outfit. I bought several jackets in different colors from Fresh Produce, and I think I'm in love.
What strange, new color combinations have you tried (or will you try)?
I am linking up today with Lindsey at The Pleated Poppy for What I Wore Wednesday...

...I think I just might have to! These are two colors I don't have much of in my closet. I thinks it's because I'm not sure what to pair them with. I like how you have them with earthy tones.
ReplyDeleteHi Chandra! Thanks!! Well, if you do, take a pic, because I think they look great together. And I have been trying other "weird" combos like red with brown or orange with bright blue and I really like them.
DeleteI love read and orange together. I recently discovered green and purple. I would have never imagined those 2 colors would work together but I like it!
ReplyDeleteHi Violet! Thanks so much for visiting!! Oh I agree. I used to wear purple and green together all the time. In fact, I had jewelry with both colors. And way back when, when I was wilder, I wore purple eyeliner and green and purple eyeshadow. But don't tell anybody! :)
DeleteI want to run out and get some red & orange!!! Looks good on you!!!
ReplyDeleteAwww, what a sweet thing to say! Thanks, Jonnique!!

DeleteCute Jeanine. Looks good on your and I think I'll try to adjust it to fit my winter coloring. smile...
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sandra! Well, winters create a lot of shocking contrast already, so there are lots of fabulous ways to mix up color using that palette.
