PANTONE COLOR FOR SPRING: TENDER SHOOTS...

Another one of my favorite colors from the Pantone Fashion Color Report for Spring 2013 is TENDER SHOOTS. This is a vibrant yellow-green that is invigorating and cheerful, very reminiscent of the renewal Spring promotes.



Here's how this chartreuse color translates in fashion now and in the past milleninum...

Although Poppy Red is an obvious compliment being opposite on the color wheel, Tender Shoots is well suited with Nectarine, African Violet and many grays as well. Paired with black & white, Tender Shoots can be extremely graphic and yet fun. 

Here are some rooms where the designers have incorporate this vibrant hue very successfully...











Happy trend spotting...


Peace and Blessings,
