I bought an orange vase last week. That might not amaze you but for me it was a big step, given that a couple of years ago if you had asked me my least favourite colour I would have said yellow or orange. I still can’t wear them, but I have grown to love them in decorating. btw I’m desperate to use these fabrics (above) together!
I like these two shades of orange together (above); the red orange of Chiang Mai lacquer paired with a lighter more yellow orange. So much more interesting than matchy-matchy.
I think of this as a ‘Palm Beach’ look (above). That orange and blue topical wallpaper is fab!
Orange in a more classic setting (above).
I’m a sucker for the odd painted piece of old furniture for that pop of bright colour! Such an easy thing to do at home and swap it around if you get sick of it. Orange looks great here against a black and white backdrop.

Gorgeous! I love everything on here! Orange could be my new fave colour now!!
Shona, thanks for your comment! I know what you mean, I’m going from colour dislike to love big time!
I love orange - both to wear and to use in my home. I agree we see it everywhere these days. Love it with turquoise but also love the orange paired with orange as in your chiang mai dragon pic! Thanks for sharing, inspirational once again xx
Wow love that top image. I never used to like orange either, but now we see it used to well in magazines and on blogs that it’s hard not to like it!
your orange images are absolutely gorgeous!
Orange (& red) seem to be featuring more and more in our home………….. some fashions just sneak up on me and before I know it, I’m hooked. Though I’ve never really been an orange hater…
Love the fabric on the bedhead top pick…….. I am so happy that I’ve found you as my source!
