I have always loved the colour orange. It makes me feel happy, reminds me of the
sunny days of summer and most importantly, it flatters my skin tone, as it does
for other types, bringing a natural glow and radiance to the skin.
I am often asked how to find what a particular colour
matches with. My advice is to look at
the colour wheel. As a rule, the colour
in question is best to be paired with the colours that sit on the right and
left of the colour in question. These are
called harmonious colours. If you are
after a strong contrast of colours and wish to create a dramatic statement, go
for the colours that sit exactly on the opposite side on the colour wheel.
These are called complimentary colours.

Another way to enhance the beauty of this strong hue is to
wear it together with similarly strong pattern such as with animal prints or with with a black and white motif and keep the accessories to a minimum.
And despite the fact that it was trendy a few years ago, I
still love to wear my orange shirt or skirt and put on my shockingly bright orange Dolce & Gabanna sling
backs.
