The Colour of 2013!!

Happy Monday everyone,

Hope you had a great weekend. Our big guy is on day 8 of battling this nasty flu. Ugh, its brutal! We're going on vacation in about a week so I'm just hoping we all get on the plane healthy! Fingers crossed.

However, to raise the sicky spirits...Pantone Color Institute (they create colour standards for the fashion, beauty and home industries) has announced the colour of 2013.

EMERALD is the colour of 2013!

Ooooh-la-la! Indeed, the vibrant shade has been a fashionable favourite for some time, from the sleeved, sequinned Versace number worn by Angelina Jolie to the 2011 Golden Globes to the sleek, silk Mulberry dress donned recently by the Duchess of Cambridge.

I can't think of anywhere in our home that we have the colour emerald. I don't think I'll be splashing my walls with it but I'm open to picking up a few accessories to add. These hits of the green in these rooms are fresh and pretty...

And, I'm sure HomeSense will be stocking their shelves with this jewel colour that allows you to add trend to your home for little moolah. Or, if you love the colour than splash those walls with the vibrant hue!

A laundry room would look great with pops of emerald. FRESH!

Don't forget to add a little vavavoom green to your wardrobe. I'll take one of these any day :)

Keep it Beautiful.
