2015 Fall Fashion Colors

Clothing colors don’t just look good on you or not; they do so much more! You’ll find lots of references about how color can be very healing, give you emotional support as well as help you express yourself. Consider choosing a color when shopping this coming fall season with the qualities associated with it. The color you wear could easily effect your mind, body and soul!

The Pantone Colors for Fall 2015 are a combination of calming, dramatic, and exciting. Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director of Pantone Color Institute; describes each of the following colors for fall in this blog.

I know we are in the middle of summer, but before you know it you will be seeing all of these wonderful fall colors on the racks and in the store. I am so excited to share with you some of the incredible, rich colors. When choosing a color, just because it is the color palette of the season does not mean you need to have every color in your wardrobe. Incorporate the color you love and is right for you; in accessories, jackets, skirts, and outerwear. It is so much easier for many of us to wear our favorite colors in the summer and then rely on the dark grays browns and blacks in the fall.

I’d love to help you make great choices for you and your lifestyle. Give me a call and we can focus on what looks right on you but also what will align with your personal goals and emotional needs. Clothes can be a great counsel when you let them!

 

Camdium and marsala
“A nod to the 60’s and 70’s Cadmium Orange evokes a sentiment of optimism, fun and fantasy. Both playful and sophisticated in its appeal. Cadmium Orange is a warm welcoming and subtly dramatic hue that is striking enough to stand on its own or act as a bold contrast. A play on the 60’s with a twist of today.” (credit: Leatrice Eiseman)

Orange is all about creativity, enthusiasm, and stimulation. It’s a great color to wear around children when you want them to join you in your fun activities. Wear orange to express joy. An orange jacket is a great pick-me-up, makes you look alert, and radiant. You stand out in orange jeans (when indigo would be the easy choice), an orange handbag (when black would be practical), or orange loafers (because brown would be expected). Be the life of the party!

 

Biscay Bay
“A lush and elegant Teal Biscay Bay splashes up against more heated tones with it’s cool touch. Combining the serene qualities of blue with the invigorating aspects of green. This cool and confident tone inspires thoughts of soothing tropical waters, transporting us to a place that is pleasant and inviting” (credit: Leatrice Eiseman)

A scarf or necklace is a good choice for wearing this color around your neck.
