Hello and welcome to the third edition of Orange Crush, a collaborate series between From the Right Bank to the Left Coast and Down and Out Chic. You can see previous installments here and here. Why this series? Well, Alek and I are hoping to convert the last of the orange haters (you know who you are) to people that appreciate the complexity of this warm and inviting color.
What better season to start your love affair with orange than autumn? Orange is EVERYWHERE, so pause and take note. These photographs show us the way...

These images are so beautiful! I'm now (more than ever) craving time in the autumn woods, a vintage orange bike, and new flowers in the garden. A lovely start to this morning!
omg!!! I think this is my favorite edition so far!! The leaves....the thread....ahhh so fantastic BUT the best of the best is the bike!! I suddenly the an urge to get a new bike...hmmm!!
P.S. Just sent you an e-mail about the giveaway. Sorry to change horses in mid-stream, but I have a new e-mail address: thecottagecheese@gmail.com. I still have the other address as well though. Thanks girlie!
little bits of orange in your home would have to cheer you on a daily basis. wouldn't it? yes, it would. so there, it's a must :)
Great images! Especially love the first two.
And, congrats Alex! That is great!!
it's funny you said that because im not a huge orange fan but when i think of it in decoration or the earthy orange tones i really do love the color. :)
These are such amazing fall images!!
This is a lovely collection! I especially love the soft oranges - that bicycle shot is just great. This is why orange is so great - it doesn't always have to be loud like people think. And thanks so much re: AT. I'm pretty psyched.
i think it's a beautiful color! just... maybe not on me ;)
more odes to orange, yay!
gorgeous photos....I want to buy them all!
Such beautiful photographs! You've converted me!
I love how the tones of orange have changed with the series. The autumn is my favorite and in California, the leaves don't really change, but these are so great!
so gorgeous...like Diana said, we don't get to see much of a change here, but it is all so beautiful!

That tree... wow. Love this collection. I'm off to check out Alek's post (love her blog!).
