HOW TO “BLEED ORANGE” By Hayden Pigott Longhorn Life
Looking for the perfect game day outfit for OU Weekend or next week’s Iowa State game? Or maybe you really struggle finding burnt orange in stores or online? Or maybe you just don’t know how to pair burnt orange with anything in your closet? It can be a difficult process but don’t worry this is your go-toguide for everything Texas you could possibly wear. LADIES: Outfit #1: The Dress Finding a dress that fits, makes you look amazing, and is the right color of burnt orange can be one of the most challenging things you ever do. And let’s be real, the ones at the Co-op aren’t always ideal because everyone has them. One of the best local boutiques for burnt orange apparel is Longhorn Fashions. They have dresses in basically every style but watch out for sizing because they can run a bit small. This dress with these boots and this necklace would be perfect.

Outfit #2: The Hot-Game We’ve all been there, it’s the middle of October and the high is 90 degrees (insert grimace face). But you can still look cute without causing yourself a heat stroke. A lot of burnt orange clothes that fill your closet will have to be purchased online because it is such a difficult color. Instead of searching for “burnt orange clothes” type in “rust colored clothes” and it genuinely helps. Pair these shorts which are on sale, with this top, these sandals, this bracelet and these face tattoos.
Outfit #3: Wait…Texas Gets Cold?! That Thanksgiving game always sneaks up on us (even if it is a Friday this year). And it will surprisingly be in the 50s and then drop down to the 40s while you sit in the stands. Texas weather, right? But the University Co-op your go to for warm, burnt orange outerwear. Pair this sweatshirt with your favorite pair of jeans, these boots and this scarf GENTLEMEN: Outfit #1: Meeting the Parents Game We all have to meet the parents of our significant other at some point and because this is Texas it often happens during a football game weekend. You need to support your Longhorns but you have to hang out with the mom and dad of your s/o. If you wear this shirt with these shorts and are guaranteed success, but good luck just in case.
Outfit #2: That Strangely Cold OU Game It happens every couple of years, OU will start off cold and rainy and everyone is very confused. But you looked at your weather app while you were packing and you are prepared with this jacket, this shirt – you love emulating Charlie Strong, these pants, and these boots.
