What is the Pantone Color of the Year?

Pantone Color of the Year 2106 Rose Quartz Serenity

“A symbolic color selection; a color snapshot of what we see taking place in our culture that serves as an expression of a mood and an attitude.

For the first time Pantone introduces two shades, Rose Quartz and Serenity as the PANTONE Color of the Year 2016. 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.” – Pantone

This is the first time they’ve selected two colors and they felt these two complimented each other quite nicely that they belonged together. I am BEYOND excited! I have to be quite honest. Radiant Orchid wasn’t my ultimate favorite, Marsala was beautiful and warm but not something I loved all year, but THIS makes me want to jump for JOY!

I always gravitate towards the pale pinks/blushes, and the baby blue is just as lovely. I think it’s so flattering on so many, from lighter skins and lighter hair to darker skin tone and dark hair. They’re beautiful together and stand alone.

If you ONLY knew how many light pink bags I have! Maybe I just seem to have good foresight! (wink!) Those two colors seem to catch my attention at the stores quite often. I stumbled across this look I put together…
