SUMMER'S here, so it's time to revive your wardrobe with rays of warm sunshine. Stand out from the crowd this season by splashing the color orange, one of the hottest trends.
Bright and dynamic in its own right, orange's summery, cheerful vibrancy means that it can also complement just about anything.
"Orange is neutral and every woman needs to mix a bit of orange with other colors of spring and summer - from hot pink to blue, then you can wear it all the way to fall," said Ken Downing, fashion director of US luxury retailer Neiman Marcus.
A bright orange jacket or dress can be a good investment piece to brighten up your style - and to help lift your mood if the sun's disappeared behind the clouds on a rainy Shanghai day.
If going bold with a bright orange dress or trousers is not your thing, add a hint of the color to your total look with a pair of orange heels, a statement necklace or earrings which are definitely attention grabbers.
Orange goes very well with brown, beige and white for women who are looking for a harmonious, elegant look.
But for fashionistas who are bold and daring, try to match orange with red, pink, yellow and even blue to create an intense, interesting look.
Orange tones can also be used as the main accent of an outfit or as an accessory.
Good luck with finding your own orange items for the hot season! Here are our picks.
