To me, July is peak summer. June marks an exciting beginning to the season, and August hosts the long dog days, but July? July is steadfast, full of sunshine, and the idea of holidays, picnics, and long evenings seems endless. Which all leads me to believe that Livingetc's color crush this month was no coincidence. Mango Swirl is a zesty orange that bleeds into all of the best moments of summer.
Mango fruit, oranges, tropical flowers — when this shade appears in nature, it leaves a memorable impression. And the same could be said for using Mango Swirl in your interior design. Who forgets an orange-drenched room? Yet, decorating with orange is too often avoided. The color gets a bad reputation for feeling dated or distracting. I get it, orange is intense, but when you give a shade an identity, it becomes more palatable.
