…I had been living in Brazil for a year and a half, cut off from anything that was going on in the US, most noticeably to my outdated wardrobe, style. As a missionary for my church, I was using clothes that didn’t need much ironing and had only been hand-washed and air dried for way too long so they were stiff and slightly smelly. Ok, a LOT smelly. Many were handed down to me because at some point you just get desperate for ANYTHING new and your sense of decency is lost because everything at some point looks “awesome.” My clothes were in terrible condition, not to mention, they were not exactly….how do you say…cute.
And the thing is, I love all shades of yellow.
Lately, I find myself drawn to orange in a BIG WAY. It’s not the shade of an orange fruit, but the lovely rust orange that you’re seeing everywhere. I have the color in shoes, a dress, pants, etc. Paired with a navy and a blush pink, even a dab of forest green, and it’s so good! Come back later to see how I’m using the color in real life!
What are YOUR associations with the color yellow and orange? Love them or hate them? And why?!
