The Color Orange

Happy Halloween Everyone!

As I sit here in my Alexander McQueen skull scarf (appropriate for today yes?) looking around at all of the Jack-O-Lanterns and fall foliage that celebrates this time of year, I’m reminded how fabulous the color orange is. I know purple is all the rage which I love, but orange is truly a force to be reckoned with. I remember in college I had a pair of bright orange boots. I would often don a complete black ensemble except for these anything but understated boots. Believe it or not, they did not look obnoxious but I'm sure I was ahead of my time for this look. :)

I know it may not be the easiest color to pull off for every hair color or skin tone; but everyone can pull off a great orange accessory. So with a bit of nostalgia brought on today by the thought of my college days filled with fun nights and orange boots, I bring to you some glam orange accessories at uber cool prices!

And my favorite is this great clutch with a detachable chain shoulder strap from Melie Bianco for only $34.99!
