Happy 2014 everyone! Not only is it the year of the Sochi Winter Olympics games but it is also the year of Radiant Orchid. Personally, and Olympic year is a bound to be a good one, but when the celebrated color is in the pink/purple family, I know it is going to be fantastic.
Today, I want to show you my latest fashion find. I went shopping the other day and found this wool peacoat for a great deal. If you find yourself looking for a new winter jacket at the first sign of winter, wait. Stores know that you will be dying to get your hands on the latest trends as the temperatures begin to drop. Prices however, remain quite high. You may be lucky and score a deal during a Black Friday sale, like my best friend Sarah did. If not, do not let the temptation of a new jacket take over your willpower and your wallet. After Christmas sales are the best places to score deals on items featured in the store windows. Why? Because designers are anxious to get their spring lines out for the new year therefore must clear out sweaters and other hallmarks of winter wear. By going shopping the week after Christmas you are guaranteed to score a good deal in department stores. Keep reading to see my deal....

Color of the Year 2014
Early December: this is always my favorite time of year, not just because the holiday season is blissfully upon us, but because Pantone releases its "Color of the Year".
Following 2013's Color of the Year, Emerald, Pantone selected Radiant Orchid to be 2014's celebrated hue.
According to Pantone: "Radiant Orchid blooms with confidence and magical warmth that intrigues the eye and sparks the imagination. It is an expressive, creative and embracing purple—one that draws you in with its beguiling charm. A captivating harmony of fuchsia, purple and pink undertones, Radiant Orchid emanates great joy, love and health." Want to know more? Check out Pantone's Radiant Orchid page.
How do you feel about the this jewel-tone purple hue? Personally, I think it is a color of optimism and provides us with motivation to break into 2014 with excitement and enthusiasm.
Looking to add some "Radiant Orchid" into your style routine?
Try some lip gloss or even nail polish:
Will you embrace it?!
