Bold orange is one of the hot colors of the year and today I am sharing a fun suit with you in this trendy color. A little background on why this color is so hot – it evokes confidence, bravery, sociability, and success! It seems like all the vibrant colors are having their moment this year, are you on board?
Orange Wide Leg Suit
I have mentioned this suit before, it was purchased on my trip to visit Andrea in September. When I spotted this orange pant suit I was drawn to the color and the style. Wide leg pants may not be the most flattering on me, but that hasn’t stopped me from trying to wear them. The suit is oversized but that just lends itself to the easy going style.
Who Can Wear Orange
You know what’s funny? Orange is a color that anyone can wear, but it’s one that most people don’t really own. There is a shade and tone of the color for everyone. Some shades of orange have red/ blue undertones while others have more of a yellow undertone. Find the shade that works for you and you can join the fun and wear this color in 2023!
What to Wear on Top
Since the suit is oversized, I am wearing a small and there is plenty of room – I decided to keep the top slim. When the weather is warmer, I will wear a cami underneath but for now a slim fitting mock neck works. A button down would be a great option too.
What Color Works with Orange
I chose a pretty pink top to wear with my orange suit – the bright colors are so fun together. But if you don’t want to go that bold, wear neutrals. White, grey, tan, off white, even blue. Black would work but reminds me of Halloween, of course that is a personal preference so if you like it, wear it!
What Color Shoes to Wear with Orange Pants
To give your legs the appearance of being longer and leaner, match your shoes to either the color of your pants or your skin tone. A heavy dark shoe shortens the length of your leg whereas an open toe sandal in a neutral color does just the opposite.
Wearing a sneaker with a suit is definitely trendy. I gave it a whirl but I’ll be honest, I am 100% more confident in my heels. These pants maybe just a bit too wide, or maybe it’s the addition of the jacket – either way, it’s not my favorite.
Accessorizing the Orange Suit
When you are wearing bold orange and pink, you can take it easy with the accessories! I am wearing simple gold hoops and colorful bracelets that are not even visible because of the sleeves. My fuchsia bag from Teddy Blake ties everything together! This bag is the 11′ Ava in Fuchsia with gold hardware and it is such a stunning bag! Ava is a structured crossbody bag so you get the best of both worlds, I love the versatility and of course the color.
I am crazy about this bag! It is a luxury bag at a very affordable price. I was thrilled to get a discount code for you as well – save $30 with the code TBKELLYANN30. Having a quality, luxury leather bag is the best way to elevate the look of any outfit.
