Color Of The Week: Sodalite Blue

This week's featured color from the Pantone Spring Color Trend Report 2012 is "Sodalite Blue" designed by Barbara Tfank.

The inspiration behind this hue: "The early films of Elizabeth Taylor who has always been an enormous inspiration to me — I wanted to offer a tribute to her".

Anytime I see a deep blue such as this shade I think of one word - Regal. Much like the inspiration behind this color of Elizabeth Taylor I too find it to be chic, classy and bold. Although it is a bold color it can easily be substituted for a neutral. Instead of khaki or black pants sub it for this deep blue with a color top or black and white.

If your outfit of the day is simple and needs a splash however you don't feel like having that vibrant hue, this shade is perfect for a ribbon in the hair, nail color or the color in your shoes!

Lastly, a great aspect of this color is that it works all year during all seasons!
