Orange crazyness

Tomorrow, it's Queen's day in the Netherlands, a national holiday to celebrate the Queen's birthday. As some of you may know, orange is our colour. It refers to the Dutch royal family, the House of Orange. We Dutchmen can get really crazy with it, especially with a day like this or with international soccer championships. We call the phenomene oranjegekte (orange craze). Orange food, drinks, clothes and other stuff can be found everywhere.

Orange is a colour rarely seen in lolita and to be honest, it's not one of my favourite colours. I couln't imagine the colour combined with lolita, but I gave it a try and I looked at the possibilities with this colour. After some searching I found some pictures/dresses with orange in them and I tried to coorinate them. Supprisingly the outfits turned out nice.

What do you think of orange combined with lolita now? Do you still dislike it or do you like it now? Can you image yourself wearing orange? It would be great to hear some opinions about it!
