The nineties will forever be remembered as the age of the Tamagotchi, chokers, plastic jackets and trousers, pop bands like the Spice Girls and the Backstreet Boys, and amazing teen movies –I mean wasn’t Clueless the best movie of all times? Ok, I’ve got to chill. What I want to say is that some trends and events come to represent a whole decade. But why do we do this? Is it because, literally, those are things we remember? Or do we just pick the most fashionable and popular things of that time and decide to pine over them? I’d be more inclined to the latter; however, no one could argue with me that in today’s world trends spark and fizzle in the space of a few days. From Pokemon Go, which was a hit for a few months, now we have the fidget spinner, which I give it a couple of weeks if not less, and, of course, Millennial Pink, the color that’s supposed to represent a whole generation. This color made us run to our favorite store and get anything in that color (yes, I actually bought a couple pieces in that hue). However, it became so fashionable that most people don’t really get which is the exact tone or its meaning. Moreover, the upcoming styles opt for brighter colors, a completely different trend than what we have seen in recent times. Since one of the most relevant things about fashion is actually moving forward, we present six colors that, according to Pantone, are going to be key for the rest of the year. So, are you ready to leave millennial pink behind and start setting new trends? Niagara
Niagara is very similar to the classic denim color, and it will be one of the Pantones that will dominate fashion in the coming season. Its cool undertones make it easy to combine with other elements, so you can wear it with either white or black. It is a great neutral foundation for any of your outfits.
– Yellow Primrose
People tend to think that yellow is a very difficult color to wear mostly because it can wash people out or it can be too loud. However, this trend is all about contrasts, so it’s fine to combine it with other bright colors. If you’re not so sure about this particular hue, you can always use it with accessories like scarves or bags. This particular yellow goes well with all skin tones and it looks great when combined with brown, beige, or green hues. There are no rules here, go ahead and experiment as much as you want.
–Flame
This particular tone has the perfect combination of yellow and reddish tones making it a unique burnt, orange color. This is definitely a color for bold people who love making fashion statements. You can pick one item in that color and make it your staple piece.
–Greenery
Last year Pantone stated that the color of 2017 was going to be green. This vibrant lime green will be one of the most popular colors of the coming seasons. Its unique tone pays homage to nature.
– Pink Yarrow
Millennial Pink might be getting outdated, but there are tons of pink hues ready to take its place. Just like Flame, this particular radiant pink will make you stand out from the crowd. Combine it with subtle tones and fabrics, and the color will pop out beautifully. You can also wear other vibrant colors for a more intense look.– Hazelnut
Last but not least, this palette includes a neutral hue that can work as a foundation. Nudes are still very fashionable, but this particular tone is dominating the fashion industry. Besides, it’s very versatile and easy to wear.–***
If you live under a rock and still don’t know the story behind Millennial Pink, this is your last chance before it disappears. Now, since trends state that bright colors are going to be essential for the next seasons, why not trying these neon outfits to glow in daylight?
