Friday Five // Fall Color Palette
If you’ve been holding onto summer with everything you’ve got, I hate to tell you, but I think it’s time to let it go. We are without a doubt in the throes of fall (at least here in Minnesota), and while it’s a bit heartbreaking to put away those sandals and sundresses, I’m totally okay with embracing my warm and cozy layers again. Of course, this time of year is also the start of a new season of color, and I’ll admit, fall’s palettes are some of my favorites. So if you’re wondering which shades are on trend and classic for your home or wardrobe this year, read on - my must have fall color palette details await!
Green 2. Tissue Pink 3. Peppercorn 4. Dark Blue 5. Deep Wine
NO. 1 GREEN
Green is incredibly popular right now, and for good reason. It's the absolute perfect color to welcome in fall, but by the same token, it's also a color that's amazing year round (so you won't feel tired of it come spring). The earthy and ultra saturated vibes feel timeless and full of life, and with a deep and muted tone, it's guaranteed to be a cold-weather winner.
NO. 2 TISSUE PINK
While moody hues are the norm this season, it's always important to balance them out with a little "palette" cleanser (ha - see what I did there?). Tissue Pink is my current fave because it gives off just the right amount of femininity without being overtly pink, and yet it feels like a neutral at the same time. Irresistible!
NO. 3 PEPPERCORN
Need a dark neutral to add to your palette? Go for Peppercorn. It's such a stunning and bold grey, yet it doesn't feel too dramatic like a true black would be. The softness of this shade is beyond inviting and has "cozy" written all over it. I don't know about you, but I'm completely and totally swooning.
NO. 4 DARK BLUE
Blue is known for its calming characteristics, and it doesn't get much more calming than a vibrant dark blue. Not only does it bring to mind deep and lulling ocean waves, but it's also reminiscent of those early twilight hours of the upcoming winter months, and I can't think of anything better to get my house ready for all the holiday vibes ahead.
NO. 5 DEEP WINE
Of course, every good palette needs a nice infusion of warmth, and a Deep Wine hue is the perfect solution. It's muted, yet vibrant, and colorful, yet subtle. Basically, it's a glass of your favorite cab in front of a roaring fire. And with an inherent aesthetic like that, it's no wonder it's a go to for so many people this time of year. Sign me up!
Do you have a go-to palette you stick to year after year? Or are you like me and crave a switch up every now and again? No matter your style or color preference, fall is here, so go ahead and embrace those new shades - it’ll feel oh-so-refreshing, guaranteed!
