'85 Bears: Orange & Blue

When I need some color inspiration, I think of complimentary colors. Take for instance, your favorite sports team - you can visualize how colors look together when you are planning your color combinations. One of my favorite teams is the Chicago Bears. Orange & blue is a winning combination (well, just the '85 Bears). 

Other Orange & Blue looks:  Blue Poppy/Orange Cardi, Orange Loft/Blue Necklace, & Old Navy Blue Rockstars/Orange Sweater.

Also check out our amiga at the Economy of Style in her own version of orange & blue.

Orange & Blue

Layering is also great for the summer. I work in an air conditioned office and temperature can be a major issue. Wearing versatile pieces allow you to be comfortable in the cooler office spaces and you can remove a layer when you are out for a quick lunch in the heat.
