Pantone color of 2012 is Tangerine Tango. However, while I don't have anything against orange (it is not a favorite), I prefer colors like Farrow & Ball's Red Earth or Ointment pink, which are slightly subdued colors with lots of orange in them.
I like to use orange accents with lavender.
Farrow & Ball - Cinder rose
Sherwin Williams - Brave Purple, Wisteria & Magical
YOLO (Eco friendly paint) - Air.07
Lavender goes with almost anything.
Green, yellow, blue, orange, white, taupe, red any color!

You can see a client's home where I used Lavender in the master bedroom & adjoining bath + the living room in the last 4 pictures.
So tell me what is your favorite color?
I would like to hear from you.
Love,
Peggy

Beautiful images Peggy and I love the subtle use of the colour in the last 4 shots tying it in from bedroom to bathroom!

My favorite color combo is blush and gold, but generally speaking, I am usually drawn to cool colors-aqua, lilacs, periwinkles. They are just so beautiful!
