The Great Colors Continue!

Lucite Green is what they' call it. It's a soothing green shade. Fresh. Clarifying. Cool and refreshing. It's got a "minty glow". Works well with both classic and scuba blue - and you'll see them all in so many prints this season. We're so excited to watch the store transform over the next weeks and months. We really love this time of year.

Another Color of the Season - Pantone Spring 2015 Looks Great!

"Scuba Blue or Turquoise is another great color this season. It's an invigorating turquoise that conveys a sense of carefree playfulness. Even though this is considered a "cool" shade, the vibrancy of scuba blue adds of splash of excitement to the palette. It offers a feeling of escape as it's reminiscent of a tropical ocean. This stirring and energizing shade takes us off to an exotic paradise that is pleasant and inviting, even if only a fantasy!"

Lead Color for Spring - Aquamarine

Aquamarine is a lead color of the season. It's an airy blue with a dreamy feel. Cool and calming, ethereal aquamarine is a shade with a wet and watery feel. Open and expansive, this restful blue also acts as a stress reducer. We've seen the color in accessories a LOT this season.  A great stand alone color - that also works well with a couple of the other colors this year.



Here's a sneak peek of a couple of the other colors in the Pantone palette this year. Lucite Green, Glacier Gray...All So FABULOUS!

It's that time again. Pantone's Spring Color Announcement. Believe it or not, our customers ask about it! I think that, like last year, we're anxious and enthusiastic to see some color after the long and cold Winter.

So, without further adieu... "This season there is a move toward the cooler and softer side of the color spectrum. An eclectic, ethereal mix of understated brights, pale pastels and nature-like neutrals take center stage as designers draw from daydreams of simpler times. Remembrances of retro delights, folkloric and floral art, and the magical worlds of tropical landscapes restore a sense of well-being as we head into warmer months."
