Play with Spring Colours - 2014

What better to do in a snowstorm, than look forward to spring. Pantone is the colour authority everyone trusts to set the tone for the upcoming season, and this year's pallet is easy to live with ...

Centered around the colour of the year - Radiant Orchid- is our need for stability and
"reflected in the composition of the palette, the inherent versatility of the individual colors allows for experimentation with new looks and color combinations" commented Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute® .You can easily add some accents to your home or wardrobe to feel updated. Fashion is about having fun with your wardrobe, so if your style has always been softly neutral, try adding just a couple of new shades.

Soft pastels of Placid Blue, Hemlock and Paloma Grey are the perfect counterpoint to the hot tropical colours of Freesia, Cayenne and Celosia Orange. It is no wonder our shop is full of oranges and corals this cruise season, moving forward they will mix perfectly with Sand or a Dazzling Blue for spring.

Equilibrium is what Pantone was hoping to achieve with this pallet, the neutrals are more lively (Placid Blue-Paloma-Sand), and your pop of colour can be as bold or complementary as your personal style is comfortable with.

Try adding shades of the Radiant Orchid to your wardrobe, either in solid colours, or combined in a print. I love how it can be paired with the Hemlock or Paloma.

Dazzling Blue is the favorite for spring, try it with the Placid Blue or Paloma for a soft approach. Or a brighter denim to easily update your current tops and sweaters.

Take some time during the next snowstorm to clean out your closet, and look forward to adding some new colours.
