October Orange…love!!
Fabulous color brings our visions to life…and our life happiness!!
You simply can’t be unhappy when you see, wear or live with Orange!!
Our beautiful Autumn Fleurs, Foliage, and Sunsets make me I think of Orange, fabulous Orange…in all shades and everywhere! I imagine it…in our homes, on our tables, on our backs, and in our handbags too!!
Cheers!! Have a peak with me…and a little of my favorite Verve Clicquot in hand!!
Orange also reminds me of European travel and fabulous Design: France – Hermès classic Boxes, Bernardaud Limoges and Italy with her magical Venetian Masks, mouthblown Murano Glass and beautiful Firenze sunsets!!
Our Halloween and Pumpkin baking, cooking, carving are charming traditions…for young and old alike! Halloween equals Orange…with Pumpkins, Persimmons, and Gourds! Speaking of “Pumpkin” reminds me, it was the affectionate name my dear Mother had for my little niece! Too cute…
Our senses reawaken and come alive each season. Fall tastes and smells come to life in fragrant scents from the kitchen with warm, wonderful spices and nature’s fragrance to comfort body and soul…and home too!! Enjoy Orange Bitters, Orange Blossom, Amber, Cedar, Musk, and Vanilla…
San Francisco is the original birthplace of Agraria and their classic Orange Bitters…delightfully intoxicating in every form throughout your home, no matter where you live!

Jo Malone London’s gorgeous Orange Blossom Collection is well-loved throughout the world, especially by Bride’s!! Sparkling!! Jasmine Sambac is more sensual and intense…velvet for sure!

As you may know, I adore the work and eye of Carolyne Roehm. Her artistic hand has created so much beauty! Surely she loves October Orange, as I do!
Hope you enjoy a few of her beautiful quality Prints, Notecards, and Books, with great love…until next Saturday.

Hi Marlene,
Love October orange! Your post is fun. I think I am going to get the 5 pumpkin set from Neiman Marcus that you featured. Also, I am venturing out to try the orange lipstick! I like how you appreciate everything and are energized by all of it, big or small.
Have a great day!
Take care,
Sandra
Hi Sandra,
Delighted that you love Orange too!! Enjoy the Pumpkin set and a little orange lipstick too…xoxo MMK
I have never been one who embraced orange; in fashions, home decor, makeup…not even an orange pumpkin! This post has me thinking, “Maybe I truly haven’t given orange a fair shake.” Every orange image in this post has left me utterly delighted! Many thanks for this orange enjoyment.
Hi Annie! Yes, what a delight to know my little post inspired you & Orange!!
Thank you… Yes, yes, enjoy Orange!!
Happy Fall – Happy October!!
