Orange Crush

No, it's not Halloween. It's just orange-themed team Mode taking on Elle magazine in a friendly game of fashion softball during the "Ugly Betty" finale. We have so many questions we're hoping will get answered. Will Mode's team beat Elle's? Will Betty pick Gio over Henry? But most important, is Mode predicting that orange is the next big summer color? Stay tuned to find out, and read on to learn how to work this bright hue into your wardrobe.

If you want to go dressy, Rory Beca's silky Tiered Dress is a great pick. Spaghetti straps and flattering ruching at the tiers are nice details that make this simple frock feminine and fun. Keep your shoes on the neutral side -- try a light gold metallic heel or flat -- so they don't clash with the electric orange shade.

For a smaller dose of color, check out Kenneth Cole's Basic Camisole in Sunset. It's a quieter shade of orange, and camisoles are a summer wardrobe staple. Another wardrobe must-have is the stretchy pencil skirt. Urban Outfitters' Lux Knit Pencil Skirt in Rust is a cool way to put some color into your look without spending a lot of cash or taking a major fashion risk. Just throw on a white tank and you've got an easy summer outfit.
