Orange loves pink!

Since end 2009 orange has become a regular in spring and resort collections of many designers. For me it was always somehow reminding on 70s tailored shirts and luxurious one piece bading suits. Spring 2011. Collections are rich with bright colors and optimism – everything goes! The brighter the better!

Orange is combined with red and pink to make a BAM impression. My favorite accessory  while wearing pink and orange outfit is a light pink lipstick while keeping the rest of the look simple without additional pop colors – just like Jil Sander did in his SS 11/12. Collection.

I have selected a number of images for inspiration : makeup and hair backstage shoots from SS 2011/12, to see how this fashion color blocking trend is spilling out to beauty as well, an editorial from May, 2009. Issue of Vogue India (feat.Lakshmi Menor) on the very bottom of the post, amazing clutch and a cute little Zara purse as a mainstream alternative and finally a couple of runway looks to bring it all together.
