Hi Everyone!
Ok so I am so so so excited for this post guys! As many of you know by now Pantone has released their color of the year and your girl has a little something to say about it.
So around this time every year those of us in the design world start speculating about the Pantone crew is gonna come out with for its coveted color of the year. If you’ve been with me for a while you know the last couple years were NOT my favorites. In fact, I haven’t been happy their release since Emerald and Radiant Orchid. I know a lot of people were on the fence about orchid, but it was my jaaaam. What wasn’t my jam….Marsala! insert side eye emoji . To say I hated its is a serious understatement. I tried yall. I really really tried to love it. I wanted to love it. But I just couldn’t ever jump on that train. Also wasn’t a big fan of the Rose Quartz/Serenity duo of 2016. This year, however…I’m definitely on board.
Hello Greenery!
Guys! I LOVE this color. This punch of color is just what ive been yearning. We’ve seen sooooooo much white…and black..and high contrast over the last couple years that seeing this saturation of a legit color is just so refreshing. You guys know I have a major crush on using and seeing green in interiors and I’m just so on board. This is a shade that will look amazing both used as accents in small doses as well as used in a major way in space…perhaps as a statement velvet sofa, or as a kitchen cabinet color. And for those of you who just cant go there with intense color in their spaces by way of paint or furniture, the easiest way to work with it by using literally incorporating greenery: plants, plants, and mo plants! This is a color that us boho lovers are going to have a field day with. This is also a color I can see as a major player in the fashion world too. I’ve rounded up some images that have me swooning.
