The Color of the Year is Here!!

This year, for the first time, Pantone has chosen a combination of two colors as the Color of the Year. Rose Quartz and Serenity were chosen as symbolic colors to serve as a snapshot, in color, of what is going on in our culture right now. Many parts of the world are currently seeing a gender blur as it relates to fashion. This is leading to a more unilateral approach to color selection in clothing and accessories.
In describing these two shades, Pantone reports, "Rose Quartz is a persuasive yet gentle tone that conveys compassion and a sense of composure. Serenity is weightless and airy, like the expanse of the blue sky above us, bringing feelings of respite and relaxation even in turbulent times."
Both these shades are fun and flirtatious. They look great paired together and they hold their own all by themselves as well. Look out for these two colors as they'll be appearing in clothing and accessories all year long.

When only one of the colors appears in a top, adding accessories in the other hue creates a standout and fashionable combination.  
This tropical dress combines both Serenity and Rose Quartz in perfect harmony.
