what’s the color of October?

So what is the essential color of the month of October? We’re feeling orange. Not a bright summer orange.

A rusty, weathered, burnt sienna, toffee-colored, caramel apple, pumpkin spice, butternut squash soup kind of orange. A rich orange with depth and layers and stories to tell. An orange so delicious you can almost taste it.

And before you accuse us of being basic, hear this. No less an authority than French Vogue declared earlier this year that “orange now stands out in the trendiest girls’ wardrobes this season.” Their styling tips? Use orange as a pop hue, as it “enhances any silhouette with calibrated accessories.” Or you could go big! “For the most daring wardrobes, orange can be worn as a total look or as one bold piece.”
