The daring combination of orange and black is synonymous with Halloween which makes it a little scary for most style civilians and normally overlooked as a possible option in everyday ensembles. There are probably untapped outfit resources sitting in your closet right now, making this a great fashion dare for those who embrace a little wardrobe risk with big returns.

The bold pairing has popped up on recent runways, so it’s a great time to dabble in its striking powers. Esoterically, orange is used to attract helpful people and ignite a career, whereas black is used to welcome wealth and knowledge, so it’s the perfect color combination for job interviews, corporate events and networking parties. It is also a wonderful sartorial choice for hosting dinner parties with intelligent conversation because the orange evokes warmth and appetite coupled with blacks ability to attract intellectual depth and intuitive insight.
