Spring is the perfect time of year to embrace colour. From the new bright flowers popping up everywhere to incredible spring fashion, colour is all around us and is something to celebrate. There are a ton of colour trends to love in 2017, including Pantone’s choice for colour of the year.

Pantone Colour of the Year
Pantone selects a colour to represent each year, described as “a symbolic colour selection; a colour snapshot of what we see taking place in our culture that serves as an expression of a mood and an attitude.” For 2017, Pantone has selected “Greenery”, a “zesty yellow-green shade that evokes the first days of spring when nature’s greens revive, restore and renew.” Read the full Greenery description here.
