Poll: Team Burgundy or Team Orange

Angie

Burgundy is definitely more popular than orange with my clients. Does the forum swing the same way? I suspect so, but lets put it to the test.

I bat for Team Orange and do not wear burgundy. I have a splatter of burgundy in my wardrobe - on this hectic twin set - which I wear with tomato red to make me happy.

Over to you. Which Team do you bat for? Not batting for both sides, but do sit this one out on the bench with fish burgers in you can't pick a side.

Burgundy for me! It's one of my very favorite colors. I'm not sure I have any orange in my wardrobe, though I do like it in small doses.

Burgundy. Orange doesn't even get close to me as a color, only as a fruit.

Burgundy! I can't wear orange. I like orange more than I used to, though, at least in combination with other colors.

My first post! I definitely bat for team orange and find it great as an accent colour. I have an orange scarf and orange bag which are two of the most used accessories in my wardrobe.

As a color, I prefer orange. Sadly, it doesn't like me as much. I am trying to like burgundy, because it suits my coloring and wardrobe better.

Team Orange checking in! I don't have any burgundy either, just a bit in a few accessories. I do like berry shades but don't wear or own them often (except in lip colors).

(Of course if we're doing Orange vs. any color, I'm going orange )

Another burgundy here. Much as I love the color orange in nature and on others, I cannot wear it. Burgundy, on the other hand, is downright flattering and my closet has quite a bit of burgundy going on.

I'm going to go with burgundy because I can wear it head to toe. Besides, I have burgundy hair and would never dye it orange.

My wardrobe is surprisingly low on burgundy at the moment though. Must fix that.

Although today's ensemble (and many recent ones actually) have me really wanting a pair of orange sandals.

Burgundy. Although I like orange, as I've gotten older and my complexion has cooled (even exercise doesn't bring a healthy flush of color) and I just can't wear anymore.

I'm sitting out - I can wear either and enjoy both!

Burgandy! No contest when it comes to which color looks the best on me.

Team burgundy for sure, but may I bat for burgundy that is occasionally combined with orange accents? Cognac stands in for orange sometimes, especially leather goods. I think that is a fab combination and it does something to make the burgundy look richer.

Burgundy, but I used to love rust orange. Like Unfrumped said, I think burgundy pairs well with cognac and orange accents.

I'm on the fence. I don't have either in my wardrobe at present, and I'm not planning to add them because they aren't part of my current wardrobe color palette, but I have been able to wear both in the past because my skin tone skews neutral.

Burgundy for me, as far as clothes go! I love the russet-y and peach-y shades of orange, as well as cognac, but they don't love me back.

Burgundy because it looks a lot better on me than orange. But I do love orange and have pops of orange all over my house.

Burgundy! It's one of my favorite colors. I have an orange cardigan that I enjoy wearing but that's my only orange piece. I love the idea of orange shoes after reading today's post though.

Team orange! I can't think of one burgundy item in my wardrobe while I do have some orange (and tomatoey-orange) I adore.

Definitely burgundy! I do have an orange handbag that proved surprisingly versatile, but it's not a color I gravitate towards. And burgundy clothing items work better with my yellow-toned complexion + dark hair.

Burgundy for me. Orange does me no favours at all.

See what I mean. STRONG preferences for burgundy. But fun to see I'm not the only member of Team Orange.

Team Orange all the way for me. It's a color that makes me happy, plus it suits my complexion much better than burgundy. I did buy a burgundy satchel last year, though, and like it a lot.

Team burgundy, but I love an earthy burnt orange and will happily wear the two together
