12 Easy Ways to Infuse Pantone’s 2019 Color of the Year Into Your Home & Wardrobe

We have officially hit the mid-month mark of January 2019, and although the “new year, new me” feelings may be fading, 2019’s color scheme definitely is not. If you’re like us, you always look forward to both learning and exploring Pantone’s annual color of the year. For 2019, they have named “Living Coral” as the year’s bright and vibrant shade, and we cannot get enough! This bold, feminine hue is both playful and unique with nature-inspired oranges, pinks and reds perfectly combined to create a signature coral shade. We like to think of this shade as fuschia’s cool younger sister — full of life and excitement with a bit of a twist.

That said, coral is an often intimidating color to incorporate into your wardrobe and, even more so, your home, but don’t fret! There are a few effortless and understated ways to do so. So, we’ve scoured our favorite sites to find a few items that can offer colorful inspiration while easing you into a coral-colored headspace. These home decor and fashionable pieces will sprinkle your life with a bit of orangey-pink goodness. From heels and sweaters to lamps and throws, here is how we’re infusing Pantone’s 2019 Color of the Year into our life!

INCORPORATE PANTONE’S 2019 COLOR OF THE YEAR INTO YOUR WARDROBE

Now that your space is set, let’s coral-up that wardrobe! Pinks, oranges and reds are flattering shades on most skin tones and hair colors, making coral an easy shade to add to your closet. We suggest using coral as an accent piece in your outfit, especially if you’re more drawn to neutral colors. A pair of statement heels, an on-trend furry jacket or some jewelry, like coral-colored hoops, is a great way to achieve this. Here, we’ve rounded up six of our favorite current coral pieces, all of which are under $200.

As the chilly months aren’t leaving anytime soon, we simply had to showcase this coral jacket ($51) and cowl-neck sweater ($128) as a fantastic way to bring light and color into a normally subdued winter wardrobe. Additionally, this midi-skirt, ($50), which can be styled year-round, is a gorgeous option to pair with a neutral top and shoes for a fun creatively coral look. If colorful accessories are more your style, these Kendra Scott earrings ($120) are the perfect way to rock coral as are these to-die-for Jeffrey Campbell ruffled heels ($89.95) and glittered block heels ($49.95). However you incorporate it, you’ll be thankful for a pop of modern color!
