Sweet tangerine

I've always loved orange. From orange-haired beauties (for one, the young Molly Ringwald) to a cold glass of orange juice on a summer's day. Seriously, it is such a succulent colour and sometimes a touch of orange to a wardrobe is indeed the perfect addition. I'm not alone with this fashion philosophy as over January and February numerous fashion magazines (in particular Vogue) seem to be loving the divine mix of orange and red too. We did some searching for ourselves and found these delicious pieces from the tree of style.

Bag lady wishlist

For quite a while now, I've been searching for that perfect bag for school that is classic, sturdy and good-looking. I kinda want to be a cool college kid with one of those hip leather satchels that those booksmart/nerdy-guys-that-turn-cute in movies have hanging off their shoulder. Soon I will have a laptop to carry around, (Santa promised one in the new year) and books and pens, food, paper, general college stuff.

Here is another bag by Baggu, not a satchel, but is a cute, school-girl nostalgic backpack made from recycled cotton and they come in a rainbow of colours)! If only it were a satchel! And a guy taken by The Sartorialist has one toooo.
