{ orange crush }

so far, this has been an especially rainy spring in new york. i'm fashion-coping as best i can by wearing bright pops of color, and special shoes whenever a bit of sun seeps out from behind the clouds.



{ zanzan sunnies (last seen HERE), gifted white+warren cashmere wrap, zara blouse, club monaco shorts, bangles from a friend's trip to bali, american apparel clutch, alberta ferretti shoes }

first of all i am a big fan of perfect settings, and this one is insane. love the dark army green colors combined with the neutral beige and cream. the pop up orange looks phenomenal with all those colors. not too much orange, just enough. the shorts are perfect because they are oh so stylish, fabulous with the kimono!

the weather can be so strange! i have seen the forecast for NYC and you are right, it hasn't been that great. in Belgium it is the other way around, we weather is way to good for the time of the year

That beautiful outfit is sure to brighten up any girl's rainy day. I love how you styled the cashmere wrap into a kimono top, and you look lovely in that tangerine hue.

I absolutely love orange! It's one of my favourite colours to wear, especially in spring/summer. There is no better colour combination than that of orange and gray, which you pulled off so well here. It's so sophisticated in an unexpected way.
