Color Duo: Orange and Green

Keeping with the pumpkin theme I decided to chose orange and green this week for a color combo.
Before browsing the internet for images I didn't think I'd find anything that great, I mean orange and green?
I was pleasantly surprised to find a few. I think the secret to making this color combo work is to use it in small doses.  As much as we all love Halloween, you don't want to live in a pumpkin... right?

Color Duo: Blue and Orange

ok so finally we're to a color duo that isn't my "favorite" haha!
I don't typically like orange, but I saw a few images on pinterest that sparked my interest.
they are after all complementary colors (opposite each other on the color wheel) so they were destined to go together!
and while some may say this is quite similar to turquoise and coral like last week... but its also really different. promise.

Color Duo: Purple and Orange

I told you any color can go together!!
and Purple and Orange are not just for Halloween!  or some sports team
It can be really chic.

The color purple can act as either a cool or a warm tone because it is made by mixing warm red and cool blue.
(see I listened in all those art classes Mr. White!)

I was inspired by my beautiful mother's dress for this color combo

 (it's from Target)

a fun kids room

 I think subtle touches work best... but go bold if you dare!

 Bring it in through prints & patterns

more of a Moroccan/ Bollywood feel.

love this print!!
