orange, ooh la la

Yes, I'm hopping on the orange bandwagon. I've never been much of an orange fan. It's bright and can get seriously tacky in no time. But I picked up an orange shift dress from the thrift store last year and got some use out of it, pairing it with a turquoise (a really difficult word to spell) cardigan.

This year, I'm slowly easing into the trend with some makeup.

Maybelline Color Tattoo in Fierce & Tangy

I picked up Maybelline's Color Tattoo in Fierce & Tangy. The next item on my shopping list is Revlon's Orange Flip.

Revlon Moon Drops Lipstick in Orange Flip

Look how pretty it is on Cupcakes and Cashmere's Emily:

I've never been one for saturated colors. I stick with my neutrals - grey, navy, black. But there's something about all of last year's crazy colorblocking got me into some fluorescent colors like fuchsia (another difficult word to spell) and highlighter yellow.

So, I really can't wait to pick up an orange lipcolor. It's the easiest way to look dressed up when you're a neutral girl like me.
