Fashion Trend: 2014 Color of the Year

By Jewelrygal @1928jewelry

       

If your wardrobe has been made up mostly of neutrals in 2013, it’s time to put the old behind you and start making new style resolutions! Say hello to Radiant Orchid, the color of 2014 as reported by the color authority Pantone, so expect to see a lot of this color unfold in nail polish, makeup, jewelry, bags, shoes, home decor and pretty much everything…

Instead of wearing this lovely shade of purple from head to toe, which can sometimes be hard to pull off, try it as accent hues in the form of:

  • A blouse inside your navy or white blazer
  • Nail polish
  • Shoulder purse
  • Wallet
  • Jewelry (like the beautiful Berry Drops above!)
  • Belt
  • Shoes
  • Hair tie
And if you’re at a loss on what colors go with Radiant Orchard, why there are plenty to choose from. Opt for: 
  • Navy blue
  • White
  • Grey
  • Silver
  • Beige
  • Tan
  • Brown
  • Orange
  • Raspberry Red
  • Other shades of purple
Shimmery pastels will also be a trend like the adorable metallic purple and green frocks by Rag & Bone and Zimmerman Spring 2014, above.

Don’t be afraid to experiment. So go ahead, take out your orchid-hued pieces and have a little fun with your wardrobe!
