Hey, y’all! I’m not sure if it is the influence of the very colorful runway or the fact that I’m wishing for warm weather and tropical vacation, but I’ve been SO into color lately. Which, if you know me, is weird. I am a neutrals girl through and through, but lately, I’ve been feeling a pull toward mixing it up and incorporating fun colors. Here are five colors I’m seeing all over the runways, stores, and trends for 2022! Would you wear any of them?

Neon Pink

I can tell you that I audibly gasped when I saw the Valentino FW22 Collection which was a dual-gender collection created almost entirely in “Valentino Pink PP,” a hue that color specialists Pantone developed exclusively for the Italian label. Valentino Creative Director, Pierpaolo Piccioli, decided on a monochromatic collection to “eliminate the visual shock” and allow “the unique character of the person and the fashion (texture, shape, and decoration) to remain the sole focus.”

The same color is already finding its way into everyday wear and retailers. Check out some pieces in this iconic hue below!

Hot Orange

I recently purchased a pair of Jimmy Choo sandals (at a major discount - check it out here if you missed it) in bright orange and I’m obsessed! I love that you can pair them with a neutral look for a pop of color or go all out like in my outfit above in a color block outfit. Hot orange is making a strong play this season and I love it for accessories, dresses, and of course vacation wear.

Lavender

This time of year lavender can seem like an obvious choice. Pastels and lighter hues are pretty popular in Spring, but. lavender is taking it to the next level this year. While it might be easier on the eyes than some of the other colors listed here, it still is attention getting and different than usual wear for most people. Stand out in a classy and elegant color this season!

Illuminating Yellow

This color definitely grabs your attention and sometimes can be as bright as neon, but for spring 2022, illuminating yellow is a color to watch and gravitate toward. Invoking warm and bright feelings, this shade of yellow is perfect for warmer weather and as a base color for your outfits. Go classic with a button down or make a statement in a highlighter pump. No matter how much you incorporate this color, you’re in for a fun and cheerful look.

Kelly Green

This hue of green lives between emerald and lime green, this bright and playful green can also be very elegant and sophisticated. I think this color is gorgeous in pretty much any category, but we will see it mostly in dresses, shoes and pants! Pair it with hot pink, black, or go with a full monochromatic style for a chic look.
