Orange really is the new black. For stylish Houstonians and Houston Astros fans alike, the vibrant hue is having its moment.
No matter where you're cheering on the 'Stros, you'll want to put together a look that is not only stylish but also stadium-approved. Fortunately, these Houston accessories and apparel shops and events have everything you need for through Game 7.
Customize your denim jacket or bedazzle your Astros jersey with patches and embroidery galore. The father-daughter duo recently added custom visors to their repertoire.
Debbie Clemens' Hyde Me Purses are handmade with genuine leather and fit all the essentials you'll need while watching the Astros #TakeItBack. She is the wife of Roger Clemens, former Houston Astros pitcher, and her accessories can also be found at DASH, the home décor and gift market.
What's better than cheering on your favorite baseball team while wearing sapphires and diamonds? We'll wait. "For a World Series-worth ring of your own," Deutsch carries a Picchiotti sapphire and diamond eternity band. If earrings are more your style, check out sapphire halo earrings from Kwiat Ashoka. Astros-themed and traditional cufflinks will "knock the ball out of the park," a representative for the brand tells CultureMap.
The American accessories brand is covering all the bases with its officially licensed MLB Collection, including double zip satchels, wristlets, crossbody bags, wallets, and backpacks. Shop online or at the Astros Team Store at Minute Maid Park.

Kyle Tucker launched a three-run homer and matched a season high with four hits against the team that traded him in December, and the Chicago Cubs routed Houston 12-3 on Saturday night to stop the Astros' five-game winning streak.
Tucker also scored four times to pace a Cubs lineup that pounded out 15 hits, including three by Dansby Swanson. Seiya Suzuki, Michael Busch and Nico Hoerner also went deep.
Chicago hit three homers in an inning for the second time this season during a seven-run fourth. Busch and Hoerner had back-to-back solo shots to put the Cubs on top 3-2, and Tucker’s drive made it 7-2.
The offensive outburst came in support of Colin Rea (5-3), who allowed two runs and five hits over five innings. The only blemish on his line was rookie Cam Smith’s two-run homer in the third, which briefly gave the Astros a 2-1 lead.
Smith, part of the package Houston received for Tucker, finished with two hits and has homered in consecutive games for the first time in his career.
Lance McCullers Jr. (1-3) came off the injured list and allowed eight runs on seven hits over 3 1/3 innings.
Isaac Paredes, also part of the Astros' trade return for Tucker, hit his 17th home run.
Tucker’s three-run homer in the fourth that put the Cubs ahead 7-2.
McCullers has a 10.89 ERA in five home starts this season, but hasn’t allowed an earned run in three road starts.
Houston LHP Framber Valdez (8-4, 2.88 ERA) opposes RHP Jameson Taillon (7-5, 4.77 ERA) when the series concludes Sunday.
