One of the things I love that happens each year at this time is the color transformation from the dark colors of winter to the bright and cheerful colors of spring. It is so refreshing!!

Here are the key color trends for this coming Spring and Summer and what I am seeing coming through my back door right now!

First of all, we need to go over the Pantone Color Of The Year: Peach Fuzz

This is a fresh approach to femininity that is soft, subtle and tender, all at the same time. 

The key pops of color to up your style this season: From left to right, top to bottom on the picture at the top of the page

1. Horizon Blue: This is a light blue hue that is airy but with enough pigment to still pack a punch of color.
2. Strong Blue: Imagine the deep sea, and you will have captured this versatile and elegant color.
3. Bistro Green: This rich and earthy forest green is a comforting color and often used in awnings at your favorite coffee bistros.
4. Spicy Mustard: This is your pop of warm yellow for the season. Imagine a gourmet mustard display and you will have captured the richness of this color.
5. Chutney: Warm and deep, this brown isn’t as dark as coffee, but has a rusty elegance.
6. Sun Orange: This color reminds me of apricots or tangerines. It is zesty, citrussy, and adds an amazing pop of color to your outfit.
7. Fiesta: Think party in Mexico with rich, red accents, and you will know the bright and brilliant red that is this color.
8. Charlock: This cool and sunny yellow is a classic spring color and a breath of fresh air that is light and airy.
9. Burnished Lilac: This version of lavender is combined with grey to make it light and the ultimate pastel pop of color this season
10. Taragon: An earthy and herbacious green, this color pops your look like the color lime but without the harshness.

The key classic colors to look for this season are:

1. Brilliant White – a bright, crisp white
2. Boulevard – a deep asphalt grey
3. Moth – a light tan
4. Deep Well – a black, black
5. Blue Fox – a medium grey, similar to rain filled clouds
