The Style Watch: The Pantone color of the year


The Pantone Color Institute is known for their authority on all things color. 
This year the Pantone color of the year is Marsala. The first thing that came to mind was chicken Marsala ,yummy. I then thought of wine, deep reds and strangely enough, rust?

I’m not one to follow trends, but in comparison to the color selections in the past , this one is unusually beautiful . Now that I’m starting to get into sewing (still a beginner), I’m starting to think about how certain colors would look on certain fabrics. For Marsala, I prefer heavier fabrics like wool or a little lighter with tweed versus on  silky materials . I picture hints of  Marsala in the bedroom as a comforter , a rug , a curtain, lamp shade or in a nice pair of flats like the ones below..

What do you think?
How do you feel about marsala
How do you see yourself incorporating this color?
What other colors would you pair it up with? 
I would love to hear from you in the comment section below!
