Orange-Red has long been a fixation of mine, it began with my best friend’s style icon grandmother, “Bama” and her orange-red lipstick, worn slightly askew with chunky gold jewelry. It always feels old fashioned and new at the same time,  like these timeless showstoppers, african violets,  gladiolas and carnations. There is something defiant and fiery about this electric vermillion hue,  how it refuses the eye any refuge with a love it or leave it attitude.
