Blue and orange is such a glorious colour combination and I particularly love blue jeans with orange. Do you? This is what I wore to have dinner with friends last night, and because there was a lovely cool breeze, jeans were a must. I bought this pair from Modalfa a couple of months ago and they cost me just 10 euros in the sale! Bargain, right? Modalfa is part of the Continente Supermarket chain—so it’s a bit like Asda’s George, for example.
We had five minutes before we left so I asked Michael to take a few photos of my outfit. It was the first time he’d tried my new camera and I think he loved it as much as I do! Earlier in the day, we’d taken Luna (our little dog) down to Alvor to walk her along the boardwalk and I took the camera with us then. It was nice to have someone else to photograph for a change—because it’s usually me taking self portraits. Speaking of which, my latest photos are up on my other blog. I hope you’ll check it out. There are a couple that I really love! One even looks a bit steampunk! You can also see them on my other Insta account which is now purely for my photography and books.
But back to my blue jeans with orange outfit…like last week’s post about my The Child tee, this is also a really simple look. But sometimes, simple looks are the best. I was very comfortable in my Calla sandals, wide-legged jeans and Zara vest. I even matched my jewellery (amber ring and necklace, gifts from my mother-in-law) to the orange vest and sandals! Oh, and I added an orange scrunchy to my hair lol. I bought this one last week from Primark. It reminds me of the colours I wore back in the 80s when I was a kid. Do you remember all those fabulous luminous shades?!
Love it! This is perfect! Simple, classy and pretty! You are right the jeans and orange is great. Going to copy this one when it is cooler!

I like orange and blue as a color combo as well. I think it looks very sporty and chic. The sandals are super cute as well.
Your husband did a great job with the camera, by the way.
Thanks Daenel! I told him you said so 🙂

I love this color combination, and the silhouette of top + jeans looks great. Your glasses are perfection with this outfit.
Thank you so much, Sally! I do love how the glasses match too!

Great jeans!! And that coral-orange-sunset color is beautiful on you. Should be your signature shade. My favorite photo is the one of you looking straight into the camera. Cute little sideways smile curling up on y our lips. I accidentally bought an orange button down shirt embroidered with books and children reading at a library conference years ago. Accidentally in that I would never have selected orange but I think I had no choice. It fast became one of my favorite colors to wear. Of course, it doesn’t hurt that I did have a little practice wearing the color in college…the University of Tennessee, Go BIG ORANGE!!
A really great color combo! And the style of your jeans are awesome! I love how they flare.

You really make it appear so easy with your presentation but I in finding this matter to be actually something that I think I might never understand. It kind of feels too complicated and extremely wide for me. I am taking a look ahead for your next submit, I’ll try to get the grasp of it!
