Pantone Colour of the Year 2011: Honeysuckle

A Color for All Seasons
Courageous. Confident. Vital. A brave new color, for a brave new world. Let the bold spirit of Honeysuckle infuse you, lift you and carry you through the year. It’s a color for every day – with nothing “everyday” about it.

While the 2010 color of the year, PANTONE 15-5519 Turquoise, served as an escape for many, Honeysuckle emboldens us to face everyday troubles with verve and vigor. A dynamic reddish pink, Honeysuckle is encouraging and uplifting. It elevates our psyche beyond escape, instilling the confidence, courage and spirit to meet the exhaustive challenges that have become part of everyday life.

Hideous Airport Fashion

The plethora of hideous things people wear when traveling boggles my mind. Here are a couple of photos taken by my friend Stephen of perpetrators caught in the act of a fashion crime! As if the sandals wasn’t bad enough, he had the courage to wear it with socks (above). And bleached out and over tanned lady here with her full on animal print onesie (next part of the post).

Fashion: Crop Tops & Meggings (Man Leggings)

Judging from Emporio Armani and Frankie Morello’s Spring/Summer 2011 collections, crop tops & leggings-inspired pants are the new trend. Sorry skinny jean haters but your gross bootleg pants are still not back in style. Apparently, it’s all about skin tight pants that almost look like leggings. I can’t say I hate this look because as a costume, I’ve worn leggings hiked up to the knees with hitop sneakers and I do love the look.

You’d have to be super fit to sport a male crop top and I’m hoping this trend does not trickle down to the average-bodied masses. It would be an explosion of “muffin tops gone wild!” This look definitely will only suit a very specific body type (ie. male models) so if your body is nowhere near that of a male model, don’t even think it!
