Dig or Ditch? Color of the Year, Radiant Orchid

Drumrolllll please!!!

It’s been announced!! The color of the year for 2014, according the experts at Pantone, is Radiant Orchid.

Not quite purple, not quite lavender, maybe a little fuchsia- & definitely a stand out shade.

My thoughts? Well… you know how I feel about color (all black everything), but I think I am kinda digging it. I can’t promise I would rock it head to toe cause that’s just not me w/ any color, but for a pop- I am all for it.

How about you?! Dig or ditch… sound off.

1. I am pretty much dead over this drawstring pouch bag, not totally as bright- but still in the radiant range. Great way to ease into the color for all the goths out there, aka me (LOL).

2. I have a hook in my ceiling of my new place that really needs something hanging from it. I was first thinking a terrarium, but now I am leaning towards this pretty purple hanging votive holder. I am all about the vintage flair mixed w/ modern decor.

3. Cork your beloved bottle of vino in style with this to-die-for Amethyst bottle stopper. I am envisioning it on my bar cart as we speak.

4. I said above I probs wouldn’t rock this shade head to toe, but I do kind of love this uber bright maxi. It’s be hot hot hot paired with a leather jacket & layers on layers of boho necklaces.

5. Today I counted my beanies, & I am actually embarrassed to say it’s up to 30… but I still can’t stop buying them ever & I don’t have a slouchy purple one yet ;).

6. See ya later dainty flower crowns, it’s all about the huge huge huge rose crown. Channel your inner Frida Kahlo.

7. & if you’re reallllly anti-color, start super small w/ Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Suspira polish. This is actually a color I own, & one of my all time faves.
