Goodbye January! Spring is just around the corner. Even though that groundhog shmounghog said six more weeks of winter–evidenced by the endless winter storms the first week in February–, I’m over this ongoing wintery mix. Let’s focus on the fashion forecast for spring!
In my Springing Forward with Kate post, I reported on the emerald green as the 2013 Pantone color of the year. Once again, Pantone Inc. (drum roll, please), the global authority on color, announced radiant orchid as the 2014 color of the year.
Radiant Orchid is undoubtedly soon to become a timeless classic with an edge. In a press release from Pantone, the color institute’s executive director stated, “While the 2013 color of the year, Pantone 17-5641 Emerald, served as a symbol of growth, renewal, and prosperity, radiant orchid reaches across the color wheel to intrigue the eye and spark the imagination.”
