2010, A New Year with New Colors




There is no better way to start off the New Year then with color. I always look to Pantone color systems to see what their picks are for both fashion and home. This spring 2010 fashion color report from Pantone has some colors that I really like. And here they are:



The top pick is Turquoise Pantone #15-5519


2. Tomato Puree Pantone #18-1661

3. Fusion Coral Pantone #16-1543

4. Violet Pantone #16-3320

5. Tuscany Pantone #16-1219

6. Aurora Pantone #12-0642

7. Amparo Blue Pantone #18-3945

8. Pink Champagne Pantone #12-1107

9. Dried Herb Pantone #17-0627

10. Eucalyptus Pantone #15-0513
