Spring Color 2011

I know that Spring is still technically several weeks away, and for some of us it will be a lot longer than March 21st, before any signs of life emerge from the frozen ground! However, I think it is always nice to look forward to what is around the corner....especially if it is regarding fashion and color. Today, I am previewing the top colors for Spring 2011,  as reported by  Pantone. Pantone, is recognized throughout the world as the leading source of color information, and is the  global authority on color. These are the colors that you will see  arriving in all the clothing stores the next few weeks. These are also colors that will be prominent in cosmetics, and eventually in home decor. Spring 2011 is full of vibrant happy colors, that are going to add some punch to your wardrobe! For more information about Pantone LLC and PANTONE® Products, visit www.pantone.com.
 The first hue, is Honeysuckle,  a gorgeous pinkish red that I am sure will flatter and up lift everyone after a long winter. This pretty color is already getting a lot of attention, and is said to be THE color for the season. Pair thisl with darker colors like chocolate or charcoal grey early in the season and then switch it up with white and soft neutrals like khaki for summer. Not bold enough to wear this color...then how about accessorizing with some jewelry in this color, or perhaps a scarf? Even a lipstick in this shade would be a gorgeous pop of color to your Spring face!

 How about these gorgeous combinations?
These colors will make you smile AND get rid of your Winter doldrums! Pairing cool Regatta Blue with the new "sophisticated orange " called Coral Rose,  or combining warm  Beeswax Yellow with  Blue Curacao will get you the attention you deserve! These refreshing colors remind me of a tropical vacation, and will definitely add "oomph" to your Spring and Summer wardrobe!

This playful pallet will look fabulous with any of  the neutrals for the season. I love the beautiful ethereal soft hues of  Silver Cloud and Silver Peony, as well as the deep practical tones of Russet, which is a lovely chocolate brown color.
