Let me tell you a tale, dear reader, of the specific pastel’s we’re going to see in 2019. It will be the dominant color story of the year, and here is why: 

First, the concept of pastel’s outside of spring is #trendy. Its different and we’ve already seen it in cotton candy-colored coats bopping all over the runway and the New York City streets. Second, courtesy of Pantone’s history-making double pastel Color of the Year in 2015, pastel’s have really laid the groundwork to seep into all aspects of our lives. Living Coral chosen for the 2019 color of the year is an update, and with the easiest transition slips into simply a powerful pastel. Next on the horizon? Butter yellow.
