Pretty in pink
If you were thinking hot pink or the fuchsia family, then keep reading! Only one pink will make the list this spring — honeysuckle. Voted as the color of the year by Pantone, it’s described as the “brave new color” that’s for everyday wear. Pair it with turquoise or neutral tones.

I’ve got the blues
Something old, something new, something borrowed, something … Because the newest member of the royal family, Princess and Duchess Catherine Middleton, abided by the old English wedding rhyme, you know you’ll definitely need something blue this spring. With a hint of high-voltage azure, you can never go wrong.

Keeping it neutral
This spring also welcomes a cooler hue in contrast to the other turn-up-the-volume colors. Who’s going to object anyway? These wearable earth tones are light and breezy just like spring. They’re going to transform slightly from sand to rusty-red this spring — I guess there’s still a little spice after all.
