Since it is October, time to start thinking about Pumpkin. A pumpkin is a fruit harvested in October. While bringing nutritious flavor, it also has many other benefits.
Pumpkin Color
How to wear the color? Pumpkin is a bright color. Brighter in color than any piece of pie you’ve had. Like orange, the color stands out. It is distinctive with attitude. Pair pumpkin with black, white, tan, navy or gray. In addition, the color looks vibrant paired with chocolate brown or forest green.
