Buy/Borrow/Steal: Trendy Colour Edition

Posted by Alexandra C. | Monday August 8, 201142 comments

This summer, we were obsessed with orange. You can see the vibrant colour everywhere from the runway to the streets. The trend has trickled down from designers like Prada to stores like H&M and Old Navy. Here are some runway examples of bright, bold oranges.
Orange is fabulous colour (and not just because I, personally, look good in it); it is flattering on almost everyone and brings great colour in any skin tone. Orange makes a statement; it looks great as a pop of colour on a handbag but if you’re feeling rather confident, why not try and pull off a monochromatic look?

Here are three flirty dresses in shades of orange and in three price ranges. Like last week, we want you to tell us which one you want borrow, which you want to buy and which you want to steal! Leave comment below by August 15th. At that time, we will randomly choose one lucky commenter to receive a prize!

UPDATE!
Thanks for playing this edition of Buy/Borrow/Steal! Here are the prices, brands and links for each of these three dresses! Any surprises?


#1 Forever 21 Floral Embellishment One Shoulder Rose Ruffle Dress (C$23.80)

#3 Frockaholics Mimosa Hot Orange Love CIty Dress (US$189.00)

I would steal number one because its by far the hottest, buy number three and wear it all the time and borrow number two...I am not sure if I love the fit of it....
