Spring Inspiration #1
Categories: Inspiration, Trend Watch
Ah, another sign of Spring…our bluebird family has returned and is setting up house once again. I love the vivid combination of cobalt blue and the rich umber on the male and the first sighting always fills me with joy. And our little bluebird happens to be quite representative of two the season’s most important color stories…
The blue family is set to be the biggest color message throughout 2010. Already in the stores for Spring 2010 we are seeing chambray, bluebell and soft denims all playing a major role. And as we move in to Summer these blues will become more intense, from cobalt to electric to swimming pool blues and azul. Flashes of inky blue, peacock and turquoise will enliven these deep midnight shades.
But the new colour family to keep an eye on is the soft browns. We will see this family emerging throughout 2010 and into 2011. From warm chestnut to spiced cinnamon, and hot chocolate, brown is set to be with us for several seasons to come.
