2011′s Color of the Year
by aviva
Experts have agreed that the hottest color in the new year will be one they dubbed “honeysuckle,” a bright, warm pinky-red shade. The Pantone Color Institute, which sets trends for the fashion and home industries, chose it for its liveliness, saying that it “lights a fire to the senses.” They also describe it as hopeful, and I agree that it is definitely an upbeat hue.
The experts who chose it suggest pairing it with white rather than black, and predict that honeysuckle will appear in materials with complimentary colors like blues, greens, and oranges – look for striped bed and table linens, for example. Expect honeysuckle pink accessories to be hot items all year long. Here are a few of the items on coveryourhair.com that will help your look stay up to date in the new year.
- Check out the animal-print tichel shown above!
- This pink lily flower looks perfect on a white baby headband. It’s also adorable on a green kufi hat.
- For a versatile item, try this feathery flower that can be used as a ponytail holder, a hairclip, or a pin.
- Our new ribbed knit beret will definitely rev you up!
- Try our ultra-trendy zipper headband in this hot color.
- A wide leather belt will add some pop to a plain outfit.
- Stay warm and elegant in this pink and white print hat.
P.S. If, like me, you think of white, yellow, or orange when you think of the term honeysuckle, check this out; it definitely does come in bright pink!
