Halloween Week: Black And Orange

Halloween week is here, and chances are you've spent a lot of time coming up with the perfect costume.  However, we don't want you to forget that you can look festive all week long.  All you need is some black and orange clothing, shoes, or accessories, and of course, some creativity.



Perhaps you have something in your closet that is already black and orange.  If so, play it up.  Add those pumps you've been wanting to wear and maybe even that orange purse you put away with the summer clothes.  This week, it's fine to bring it out again. 




In keeping with the seasonal idea, pull out that summer dress. Of course we want you to be warm, but as long as you add a sweater and some reasonably warm shoes, you should be good to go! In this case, a black cardigan is perfect for the season, and you more than likely have one sitting around.  Don't worry about the orange shoes if you don't have a pair because black pumps or flats would also work. 



We love this idea if you're looking for something casual. It's a perfect example of how accessories come into play.  Who doesn't already own a pair of jeans and a black shirt?  Couple it with some orange jewelry, a festive scarf, and a colorful bag.  Again black shoes would be fine, but don't be afraid to add some color if you have any at home. 



Don't forget the outerwear this Halloween.  Even if you aren't dressing up for the holiday, you can still be festive (and practical) as you're out and about.  This outfit is the perfect combination of black and orange.  From the colors to the jewelry and accessories to the coat (which is what we want to focus on.)  If you  have an orange coat...wear it!  If not, a black jacket and some orange add ons like gloves, scarves, and a hat, would be the perfect combination for trick or treating.
