Pantone Top Colors Spring 2014

Pantone is giving us a glimpse into the dominating colors we’ll see in the next year.

You’ll find many shades of blue on the list, but the Dazzling Blue ranks number one, being the color of 2014. Dazzling Blue is the color of Facebook logo. So, it will be mandatory for all of us to have this color in our wardrobes.

Violet Tulip came in second and Radiant Orchid landed third. The other 2014`s colors in the list are: Celosia Orange, Hemlock, Freesia, Paloma and Sand.
