Orange...this years summer favourite?

So it's officially summer! Which means that holiday season is upon us, & we're all going to be frantically adding new clothes, bags & accessories to our baskets for a new summer wardrobe! Holiday shopping is expensive - as I'm sure we've all learnt the hard way - so why not think about adding some colour & variety to your wardrobe whilst you're out making some new purchases?

I loveeeeee summer for so many reasons, but one of them is that it gives me the excuse to wear all these different colours that I wouldn't necessarily always wear the rest of the year.

This year the colour I seem to be drawn to the most is orange. Everywhere I turn when I’m out shopping, flicking through magazines or just scrolling through my social media I’m seeing lots of it & I’m living for it!

Reds, yellows & greens are usually 'safe' colours to go for when trying to add some colour to an outfit as they're vibrant but aren't necessarily too 'out there'. Orange on the other hand will always make a statement, whether it's just wearing something as small as orange earrings you'll be sure to stand out!

I haven’t properly started my summer shop yet but I’ve bought a few bits here & there, & a lot of it seems to be orange so far...so I think it’s fair to say I’m slightly obsessing over it right now.

I've detailed a few of my favourite new orange additions to my summer wardrobe below for you...

Earrings - Primark

Tote bag - Matalan
This bag is a must-have in my summer wardrobe this year! I love the handles as it makes it look a bit more quirky, but it also comes with a strap if you want to wear it over the shoulder (see cover pic).

Bodysuit - Boohoo
Plain bodysuits are just an easy option to throw on when you go out, but I love the fact that when I put this one on I stand out a bit - even when I haven't necessarily put much thought into the rest of my outfit!

Beach playsuit - River Island
I bought this a couple of weeks ago for my holiday coming up next month so I could wear it over my bikini when I'm out and about. But I've actually worn it a few times here in England because unlike many other beach playsuits - this ones not see through!

Enjoy shopping for your summer wardrobe & I hope you add some orange to it now too! xoxo
