Monaco Blue

Monaco Blue

Monaco blue is 2013’s Spring choice of colour stated by Institute Of Colour, Patone, the authority on everything that is colour. The classic Monaco Blue is versatile and elegant, full of depth and can be combined with colours such as emerald green and lemon zest.  This classic but modern colour is set to be hot this year.

Other close matches and close runners up to being the colour of Spring include colours such as Dusk Blue and Greyded Jade. All these colours are great for infusing a sense of well-being.

African Violet

African Violet

African violet is a neutral colour and mixes well with other neutrals such as Poppy Red and Dusk Blue. This hue of purple compliments all skin tones well and can be compared to black or navy. In other words, everyone looks good in it! You can also mix it with different shades of purple to create depth. It is set to be one of the most romantic wears of next season.

Emerald Green

Emerald Green

Emerald Green is a clear, fresh and crisp colour that is perfect for early spring and has been crowned as ‘colour of the year’ by Patone. According to them the colour is described as energizing and radiant, making it a must have this season. By mixing the emerald with colours such as the Greyded Jade and Tender shoot, this creates an invigorating, cool and refreshing look.

Lemon Zest

Lemon Zest

This optimistic and cheerful colour is great to add a bit of playfulness to the Spring season. Associated with daffodils and baby chicks, Lemon zest is all so a great look for one that feels festive over the Easter period. Yellow is a colour that represents the sun, so it will defiantly be keeping you shining throughout the spring. 

Poppy Red

Red is known as a bold, passionate colour and is great to add a bit of warmth to the Spring months. Poppy red  works great with ivory and black, but be sure to make the Red your colour statement.  It is vibrant and sexy, working well with all skin tones. If going all red isn’t your thing, don’t be afraid to experiment with accessories, less can also be better.
