Claire is wearing an orange-edged scarf with blue and pink flowers [Spanish charity shop], orange tassel earrings [handmade with tassels from Leeds Kirkgate Market], burnt orange cropped jumper [Primark], denim sack dress [Topshop], black tights [Spanish hosiery shop] and tan leather boots [Topshop].
Covadonga is wearing orange flower clips [Chinese bazaar, Spain].
Orange is such a great colour, probably my favorite! It's not as bright and loud as red and unlike yellow...well, it's just a fantastic medium between the two. There's neon, burnt orange, sunny orange, egg yolk orange, reddy orange: there's one for everyone! It's a happy colour and it's named after a fruit rich in vitamin C.
I am adding an extra layer to my triangle today and playing with proportion because it's a loose jumper, so I'm extra baggy today. I look like a colour block cone.
Moreover, I enjoyed my tassels so much yesterday I found some more to wear. I bought some of those cheap earring hooks and then simply threaded the tassels from a haberdashery store through the loop on the end. I have been asked if they're from curtains (they may well have been designed for that purpose), but I like upholstery and homeware. The only downside is that they swing quite frequently near my eyes when descending stairs and near my mouth when it's windy outside.
