For someone who goes on and on about how much she adores spring and summer and feels like the odd-blogger-out for not being obsessed with fall, I sure have been showing the fall season a lot of love lately.  The weather has just been so nice (in the '70s, with blue skies and sunshine), and the trees are still full of summery greens mixed in with pretty fall colors, so maybe that's why I'm embracing October more this year.  Whatever the reason, I've been finding myself drawn to autumn hues, including Pantone's Koi, which is a warm, earthy shade of orange.  It's named after the fish, but I find it to be more similar to pumpkins or autumn leaves. And although I don't usually gravitate toward oranges, I'm really feeling this cozy color right now.

What are your thoughts on this shade of orange?  What other fall colors are you especially loving this year?

  3. We've got Koi fish in our pond :)
    This is the only shade that doesn't suit my skintone very well - I'd probably go for shoes or a bag!

  5. I've been eying that Modcloth top for quite sometime now. So cute!! And this colour... absolutely dreamy. I'm hoping to add a few burnt orange pillows to our couch - the perfect touch for fall!! :)

  7. Love this color and all of these picks especially the polka dot top! I don't usually wear orange but in the fall I find myself wearing it a lot more often.

  8. I do love this color. I think of it as a wonderful accent color that works in pretty much any color scheme. It really does seem to spice up a neutral palette. Fun post.

  9. Oooo! I want #4, #6, and #8!!! So pretty. Such a lovely color for Autumn, too! In Autumn I really like orange, yellow, dark green, dark red, brown... Pretty much all the colors of falling leaves. :D
