Hello.

In my recent WIW post Lots of Zella Joggers for Fall SaraD8 suggested I try pairing my grey thunder capsule with the rust redwood pants.

Of course this had me going down a rabbit hole of what other solid colors I own that would work well with the orange pants too.

Here are the color pairings!

#1 and #2 - Zella Lift Off High Waist Ankle Pants in Rust Redwood and Zella Echo Ottoman Rib Zip Hoodie in Grey Thunder
I would never have thought to try this pairing together, a big thank you to SarahD8 for the suggestion. It's a strong color contrast that I'm digging.

#3 and #4 - Rust Redwood with Navy
Pairing navy with orange seemed a logical next step to try. The navy's are slightly different shades here (the Zella hoodie is Navy Evening while the Caslon tee is Navy Blazer) but it's close enough to my eye.

#5 and #6 - Rust Redwood with Pink Violet
A while back Angie recommended pairing the pink violet tunic with the navy/pink Adidas sneakers (suggestion made in the post here). The pinks of the tunic and sneakers are not a perfect match but I rather liked this combination.

#7 and #8 - Rust Redwood and Butternut Wood and Rubber
The hoodie is called "Rubber" and the tee color is called "butternut wood." These various brown shades were an interesting combination with the orange pants.

Overall, this was a fun exercise. I'm surprised at how versatile the orange pants can be to create outfits which fit perfectly with my current style moniker of casual/soft, sporty, playful.

Thanks for looking!
