Orange and Blue Will Do

One of my earliest posts was about the right way to combine color wheel opposites such as orange and blue.   If you're not familiar with color theory, color wheel opposites are the harshest visual combination.  But that doesn't mean you have to steer clear.   You can see my previous posts on orange and blue here and here, but the jist is: reach for a more muted shade of one to enhance the other. 
For today's outfit I combined an intense orange with a (muted) navy blue and a darker orange cardi to tone down the contrast.  Voila!  Visual interest instead of seared retinas.   

Outfit Info:  Emily and Fin Tiger dress is Thrifted, Ecosusi Bag, B.A.I.T. shoes, YeMak cardigan
