The Colors of Spring

After declaring honeysuckle pink the color of the year, Pantone has now come out with a complete palette for spring fashion. As usual, they had some fun naming the colors; coral rose is neither coral nor rose, but orange; and peapod—a muted greenish shade—looks more like a swimming pool than something you’d eat.

But enough of semantics. The vintage-loving fashionista can get in on the fun as well. Here are some lovely pieces in my five favorite colors from the Pantone 10.
