Ever since I have been young I have loved to color combination of pink and orange. I really do not know where my love of this color combination came from but for one am very happy that these colors are back in the spotlight and there are many choices in this combination. The Velvet Nettice Honolulu Tie Dye Stripe Dress is a fun and casual tie dye dress that can be worn for many occasions like an afternoon meetup with friends or a night out. This dress is a silk crepe/jersey so it is comfortable to wear even when the temperatures are high.

The  tank dress has straps wide enough that you do not have to worry about bra straps showing and the scoop neck is deep enough to flatter your chest but not too deep that it is too revealing.I love that the top of the dress is a silk blouson bodice with a tie at the front. This gives the dress some dimension and shape to it. The bottom part of the dress is a double layer jersey so it is comfortable to wear and there is no fear of it being see through. An elastic waist makes this a comfortable dress to wear and the vivid tie dye pattern will draw attention your way. Since this dress is so colorful you should stick to a neutral color heel, wedge, or flat unless you can find a matching pink or orange shoe to wear with the dress.

If you like the overall look and features of this dress but are unsure of the colors, there is a blue version also available.

One of the biggest color trends for Spring and Summer 2011 is orange, more specifically a Tangerine Orange. This shade of orange is named after the delicious fruit. The fruit, tangerine, can vary in color so there really is not a true shade of orange for it.  Since there is such a variation in the shades of this color, each fashion designer has a vision in mind when they label the color of their clothing tangerine. I think that designers like to use tangerine as opposed to orange because it sounds more luxurious.

I believe that a staple item for all closets this spring and summer is a lightweight, comfortable, maxi dress. While the color of these dresses is not important, I love this Candied Orange Jersey Maxi Dress. It is a very simple dress that can be worn as is, with a belt, or with a cropped lace overlay. Though it is a basic dress, there is a small pocket at the top of the dress that gives it something unique.

A structured ladylike pleated dress is not a necessity to own but it will enhance your wardrobe. The ASOS Tailored Dress With Pleated Skirt is a very feminine dress with a bit of an edge to it as well. The high neckline and the strong pleats are a classic ladylike look but the cut outs on the sides make it more modern. Wear this dress as is or with a small narrow belt.

If you are in need of a formal dress and want something out of the ordinary in color, try a tangerine orange dress. This color will most definitely allow you to make your presence known. I love the Roberto Cavalli Draped Dress with the crystal embellishment at the shoulder. This dress has one sleeve and is draped beautifully.

When wearing an orange dress, or any vibrant color for that matter,  you do not have to keep it as a solid color. Adding some white to an orange dress is a great combination. There are varying amounts of white that can be mixed with the orange in these dresses.  Some dresses having accents of white and others, the orange is the accent color.
