How to style Living Coral & co

… and the winner of the title Color of the Year is Living Coral. Most of us haven’t heard the name before like it was the case before with many of the fashion colors. Remember when we wondered how to look up-to-date in greenery? We riped our hairs and somehow worked arround it with a trendy accessory or whatever. Like Greenery, this year’s Pantone pick – Rose-quartz and Serenity – isn’t my cup of tea.

But, thanks goodness, there are some fashion shades that call my name. First let me introduce them to you with the collage below.

Aspen Gold, Tumeric

… play well with white for a summery vibe. Best as a sort of yellow and white polkadot dress.

Princess-Blue

… style it like Royal blue. Great gemstone shade for cocktail dresses and special occassions like a formal wedding or to dress for succes at a military ball.

Living-Coral

works with all of this spring/summer Pantome colors as well as with the typical corporate neutrals.

Jester-Red

In my opinion, this color is a great neutral for all those who know the secrets of cool neutral looks. It also works great with eclipse (or navy), black, gray, or even mango-mojito.

Mango-Mojito and Fiesta

These variation of orange are probably not everybody’s favorite as it is hard to pull off in everyday life. Go with a blue to colorblock or try wearing with analogous colors.

Eclipse,Toffee, and Brown-Granite

Treat eclipse, toffee and brown-granite like navy, dark tan, and brown, respectively. Perfect for a corporate dress code for suits, skirts and trousers. Style with the usual corporate tops in white, light blue or fashionable sweet-lilac, sweet-corn or soy-bean. These combinations will make a great great for job interview outfits. For the daring try Aspen gold or living coral for a fashion-forward work attire.

This fit-and-flare dress is my newest update for my spring/summer wardrobe. Since the air is still below the freezing point in the morning, I combined it with floral tights to go with the idea of spring at least. For the commute to work, my denim coat kept me polished and well insulated. You know an Alaskan spring look looks like a great southern winter look.

Just a last thing. Also remember to use clothing in colors that are similar to the current It colors and use them to create Pantone colors inspired looks. Which is your favorite of this warm season Pantome shades? Just curious.
