Everybody's tangoing...


to Pantone's just-announced Color of the Year, Tangerine Tango. (Elisa, if you read this blog, thanks for tipping me off!)

I could never wear this shade of orange--it would turn my skin a ghastly yellow. And as I've blogged about previously, I'm partial these days to Longhorn orange, which is really more of a burnt umber.

Many in the beading world are opining on this color this week, but the best post I've read is by color magician Beverly Ash Gilbert.

  1. A friend directed me to designtaxi.com to read a March 22 entry about Pantone's new partnership with Sephora, creating a makeup line based on Tangerine Tango and it made me think about this blog entry.

    The color for 2008 was "Mimosa," a saturated warm orangey-yellow that rivals "Tangerine Tango" in vibrancy…I'll be interested in seeing how they continue this makeup line based on future colors.
