Pantone Fall 2012 Colour Trend Pink Flambe

Pink in the fall... what the what?!? Yep, you will be seeing this vibrant colour in the stores.  Don't be afraid, you can wear pink after labour day.

Don't you find that fall is when our tan starts to fade and the circles under the eyes start to show a little bit more and your skin is looking sorta drab. Well not if you are wearing Pink Flambe!  This colour adds life to your face and a pep to your step.

Pantone Fall 2012 Colour Trend Titanium

Continuing the Pantone Fall 2012 Colour Trend Report, today we focus on Titanium.  I LOVE all of these pieces.  There was so many to choose from it was hard to decide what to focus on.  They call it Titanium but lets be honest it is grey, a must in any wardrobe.  And why it is a must?

I find it more interesting then a basic black which we tend to get stuck wearing these cooler fall days.  As a neutral it literally goes with any colour and used as a pattern the colour is subtle but interesting.  Perfect for those trying to dip their toes in to the world of wearing pattern.  I am sitting here trying to think of a colour that doesn't work with grey and I can't think of any, can you?  Hmmm? I need more grey in my wardrobe, like Fifty Shades of Grey! **blush**

Pantone Fall 2012 Colour Trend Rhapsody

And the Pantone Fall 2012 Colour Trend report continues.  Today I am featuring the colour Rhapsody.  I am not sure how accurate Pantone was when they predicted this colour -  2 seasons ago because I did have a hard time finding examples of this colour.  

Because of this I did improvise a teensy bit and add in some bolder richer purples.  I think incorporating these rich colours with rhapsody make a bigger impact.  On it's own I do think it is some what "wish washy" but that is just my opinion... what's yours?

Pantone Fall 2012 Colour Trend Honey Gold

There is nothing that brightens your spirits on a gloomy Friday morning (like it is today here in Toronto) then wearing a bright colour.  The Pantone fall fashion report features a rich Honey Gold as a colour to watch for this fall season. I am seeing it everywhere, are you?

All over pattern Honey Gold may be too bold for most so consider wearing it as a pop of colour with some of your basic blacks, greys or browns;  a simple cashmere cardigan and a pencil skirt, a polka dot blouse under a suit jacket  or a tank under a grey sweater.

If you are the type of person who gets stuck in the black hole rut every fall/winter, use the Honey Gold accessories to lighten things up and add some funk.  My yellow faux croc purse puts a smile on my face every time I use it.

Put A Little RRRAAARRR Into Your Closet

Drink and blog much?  NO! But you may have thought I did if you receive my blog email OR saw my previous posts now deleted.  Apparently linking my blogger account and Polyvore account allowed some I items "clipped" for my boards to be automatically published.  No header, no notes, no details just the clothes and a link.  I have since changed my settings but when things like that go out to the blogger universe it can appear as if I am sitting here with a glass or two of wine. Hmmm, now that I think about it that might be such a bad idea - I will be right back!

Qdfkljhfoa nasdjlfj adkj... oh I am just kidding - just diet root beer for me.  Back to business, today we are looking at another of the colours predicted to be hot for the fall season by Pantone.  French Roast is a gorgeous rich brown that oooozzesss warmth.  Nothing says fall then a deep dark brown.  What I love about this colour is how it easily it transitions from day to evening wear, it works well as a neutral but even better in an animal print.

When I would putting this collection together I couldn't get enough of the animal prints.  They are everywhere.  Use French Roast to put a little Raarrrr in your closet.

Pantone Fall 2012 Colour Trend Ultramarine Green

Aaaannnnnddddd the summer is over (boo boo hiss hiss) and all things are back to normal - well as normal can be.  Today we take a look at a collection of clothes that are the Pantone's Fall 2012 Colour Trend Guide Ultramarine Green.

What do you think of this colour?  Meh?!?  That is what I was thinking when looking just at the colour swatch but when I look at the clothing options available in this colour, I think "yeah, okay I can do that colour".  I especially like it paired with navy - like a navy suit?  I think that would be interesting.

Fall 2012 Pantone Fashion Colour Report

Soooooo what to buy, what to buy?  Fall 2012 is arriving in the stores now so what are you planning to pick up for your new fall wardrobe.  Do you have a plan?  Wondering what the trends are for this season?

Lets start with colour trends.  Each year PANTONE®, known worldwide as the standard language for color communication from designer to manufacturer to retailer to customer, releases a fashion colour report that shares the TOP 10 colours that designers are featuring on the runway. Here is what you can expect to see in the stores this season.

I love the vibrancy and richness of the colours.  They could easily be mistaken for Spring colours with the Bright Chartreuse, Tangerine Tango and Pink Flambe. 

So where can you find these colours?  Stay tuned over the next few weeks I will be putting together a collection of these colours so you know exactly where to find your favourites.
