The orange color that's hot this season has definitely caught my eye. Many have tried on J Crew's Cecilia dress, but few to no rave reviews. There are definitely some other options out there:
Top row
* Eliza J ($118)

Are you getting 'sunkist' this season? If orange isn't for you, is there another bright you're playing with...?

I love orange for this summer. Orange and blue are perfect combination!
ReplyDeleteI am obsessed with orange this season. Love all your selections! I got the Blythe silk top on the poppy color, which is a dark orange, and I love it!
ReplyDeleteGreat selections - I love the bright oranges and reds that are available in the stores now. I picked up a Zara orange shift dress (posted on my blog here) - it was less expensive and with the V-neck, a little more flattering on me than the J. Crew urbanite dress.
ReplyDeleteI bought the crossover belted dress from Loft in an orangish-red about a month ago....they only have the olive color left online, but the bright orange/red color is awesome if you can find it in stores still....very flattering dress!

I will be getting Sunkisted this summer. I just bought an orange maxi dress from F21 and I can't wait to wear it. Plus, I just bought an orange MAC lipstick. I think I'll hunt down some cute orange tops next.
ReplyDeleteI bought the ON linen shirtdress in the orange colour (and tan, and white) and cant wait to wear it! I just got it back from my seamstress :O) I get everything tailored.
ReplyDeleteI totally drank orange soda as a kid but I can't touch it anymore after drinking those horrible diabetes test drinks (that taste like orange soda except like 10x more sugar) when I was pregnant each time. That pretty much ruined it for me. I still do love the color though! I usually stick to corals but I have my eye on a "Sunkist" colored top at Anthro right now!
ReplyDeleteOh girl, you are talking about my favorite color of the moment! I think I own everything J Crew has put out recently in their "modern red" color sans the sardina espadrilles (but I'll get you pretties when you hit sale, bwahaha).
ReplyDeleteI think this is such a bright fun shade that is surprisingly very flattering on a multitude of skintones!
That Talbots knit henley dress has been calling my name. I will have to go check it out.
ReplyDeleteOrange is such a pretty color but it does not work near my face so no dresses or tops for me. I have a few orange skirts: the J.Crew double-serge wool pencil from 2008, the J.Crew lattice-print pencil skirt (also have the brown version) and a hibiscus-print layered pencil skirt from Club Monaco that is probably 4 years old. I have papaya perfect-fit and Maya cardigans that require some other shirt underneath so I can temper the orange even though they are quite soft shades that work better with my skin tone.
ReplyDeleteThat's the extent of my orange clothing and it is sufficient. I see all the love for the orange Ceclia dress and think to myself, "Never in a million years..." To each their own!
I'm glad retailers are doing more with pretty oranges but I am always on the hunt for true red pieces and everything is orange! I have been burned by some misleading retailer website photos thinking I was getting a red item and getting an orangey one in the mail.
ReplyDeleteI did fall in love with J. Crew's retro orange paisley pencil skirt but it had no stretch and was not flattering on me. I think I may pick up a few orange accents but I shall never betray my red!
Sunkist soda was my fave as a kid too! I wish I could wear orange but it does not work with my complexion. Lately I've been drawn to coral and turquoise.
ReplyDeleteOrange is one of my favorite colors for the spring. I just need to find the right dress!s
ReplyDeleteOh No! (covers her eyes) I am so addicted to orange again! I am always drawn to it, but right now I just keep picking everything in that colour... I really should not look at these beauties you've selected but...
ReplyDeleteI love that Talbots henley dress (it's a slightly different shade...right?)
I'm one of the few who liked the Cecilia dress in retro orange. I wore it yesterday, in fact. It is such a fun dress! I'm also really into orange this season, of course it partly has to do with the fact that retailers are pushing it at us this year. Even though I already have the Dorrie skirt, I would really like an orange midi skirt, but can't seem to find one.
