Colorful Jewelry Picks for Spring 2014
Radiant Orchid
Pantone’s 2014 Color of The Year, Radiant Orchid (color No. 18-3224) is a lovely blend of fuchsia, purple, and pink undertones. This feminine and pretty color is the perfect shade to transition you out of the winter blues and into Spring.
Placid Blue
Reminiscent of a picture-perfect sky, Placid Blue is a soft and dreamy blue that brings on feelings of peace and calmness. This pretty pastel mixes well with other soft hues, such as cool mint, coral, white, and creamy peach, as well as deeper shades like black and indigo.
Violet Tulip
Featuring a mix of blue and purple undertones, Violet Tulip is a close resemblance to periwinkle. Romantic and whimsical, this pastel purple was paired with bold hues (yellow, orange, and red) on the runway to create a colorful equilibrium.
Hemlock
This pale, decorative hue is very different from the vibrant Emerald green that was 2013’s Color of the Year. Hemlock is a soft shade of green similar to that of spring foliage that brings a fresh, clean feel to any look.
Sand
The prefect neutral for spring and summer, Sand is a light shade of brown similar to beige. Just as its name implies, this color is sure to conjure thoughts of the warm sandy beach.
Paloma
Think of Paloma as the new black. This pale grey color is the ideal neutral for the warm spring and summer months. What’s more, this subdued shade is attractive enough to be worn alone and lends sophistication when paired with any other color.
Cayenne
This spicy red hue is a bold break from the season’s palette of pastels. Fiery, romantic, and eye-catching, Cayenne is sure to make a statement. This hot color blends well with others, but also looks great on its own.
Freesia
Freesia is a warm and energizing yellow evocative of tropical flowers. This bright hue illuminates muted colors like Violet Tulip, Hemlock, and Paloma, yet shines just as brilliantly alone or paired with bold Cayenne or Dazzling Blue.
Celosia Orange
Celosia Orange is another warm and lively color for spring. This captivating orange conjures visions of a summer sunset and brings a touch of optimism and spontaneity to the stage. Celosia Orange pairs well across the spring palette, but is especially gorgeous with Violet Tulip and Radiant Orchid.
Dazzling Blue
Strong and vibrant, Dazzling Blue should be a staple in your spring and summer wardrobes. It’s the perfect companion to pastels and white, and adds confidence and energy when mixed with other bold shades.
