Here at Yorker Towers (*sigh* if only such a place existed. Imagine how ORANGE it would be), we’re getting ready for The Yorker website launch party tomorrow night. The theme for the event is ‘orange’.

“Orange?” I hear you recoil in horror. “But I don’t own a single orange item”

Fear not Cinderella/Cinderfella (delete as appropriate). You shall go to the ball. Pick one of the items below, pop along into town tomorrow morning, and turn up looking dapper tomorrow night, ready to PAR-TAY.

Ladies

Blend into the orange around you in this orange sort-of-camouflage-print dress. Stand really still in the EXACT same position as the model all night, and no-one will even know you’re there. If you’re really lucky, 20 other girls will all have bought the same dress, making it even easier to hide.

If you want to dress casual, nonchalant, as though you aren’t bothered if you’re there or not, even though you’re clearly already bursting with excitement, this casual orange dress may be just right for you. It’s casual. It’s orange. ‘Nuff said.

Pretend you’re a piñata when you’re hanging round by the food in this ruffley, fluffley top. Also useful for smuggling things out. Not sure what you would smuggle out. No people please, we like our writers.

Catch orange pneumonia in this orange playsuit. No jacket required. Pair with kitten heels for extra ice-skating fun.

Why not make it fancy dress? Come as one of those acrobat people in the Robinson’s advert with these orange tights. Just the tights. I dare you.

Gents

Go simple with a plain orange t-shirt. They’re 2 for £10, so you can bring a friend too, or layer up against this bitter Yorkshire weather (or, you know, just buy one. Whatevs.)

I’m not sure that the orangeness of this orange shirt quite meets with Yorker orange standards, but hey, we’re not going to kick you out.

Live out your superhero dreams and wear these orange pants over your clothes. Maverick. Or show off your fierce side with these bad boys. Mmm schexy.

If all else fails, go wild with the fake bake and come in your birthday suit. Well, someone’s got to bring sexy back sometime soon. Why not you?

Yorker launch party, 8pm Friday in The Lounge (Roger Kirk Centre). More info on the Facebook event: http://www.facebook.com/events/232789893464319/

Be there. It'll be awesome.

Some gorgeous suggestions there Laura! I'm going to have a look what I can find in town this afternoon. I don't think we could have a more awkward colour!

I am going for an orange tie, although the other suggestions for the 'cinderfellas' among us are very good haha. Mind you, to find an Orange tie was a damn lot harder than I expected. While I was at home last weekend I tried everywhere for an orange tie. NOWHERE did one. But I rembered that Topman in York did so happy days. It's a bit of a strange Orange but its orange nonetheless!
