Color Report: Deep Teal

Today in our continuing series on Pantone's top 10 colors for Fall 2011, we take a look at deep teal. I don't know about you, but I already have several outfits in this gorgeous color because it's just that beautiful. A perfect hue for the darkness of fall and winter, this color easily lends itself to a fashionable ensemble:

Color Report: Phlox

Today in our continuing series on Pantone's top 10 colors for Fall 2011, we look at Phlox. Like its flowery namesake, this rich shade of purple contains a great deal of magenta, tipping it close to the warm side of the color wheel. It's noticeably warmer than the deep purples of the amethyst gemstones, but both amethyst and purple glass will complement phlox-hued fashion accessories for a fun purple-splashed outfit.
