And the Pantone Colour of the Year 2010 is...

Yes, it's that time of year again ! For the past 2 years we've been shedding the light to our blog readers on what the Pantone colour of the year is. But why? Well, not just for fashion reference - Pantone is THE institution in colour referencing the world over. Highly respected in their field, Pantone know a thing about colours so when they announce their colour of the year, its big news. Enough of the suspense...this year's colour is...

Pantone 15-5519 Turquoise! A big change to the colour of '09 which was Mimosa - a warm and 'optimistic' colour, symbolising hope in a time of worry. This time around it's all a bit brighter. So - product has already started to trickle through in this colour way - keep your eyes out for more and remember where you heard it first! 

Are you a fan of Turqouise? What would you have as your personal colour of 2010? Perhaps something to match those New Years resolutions...? Thoughts below.

Michell rocks the ‘Brooklyn cool’ look. Good use of streetwear and contrast materials on the jacket. Very Kayne West. P.s Backpacks are the way forward people…

These guys are taking it easy. Simple, clean & fun. Jeans, black trainers and some exclusive Topman CTRL T’s.. Can’t go wrong

Model Luke is owning the grunge look. A mixture between Pete and pavement. A mix of L.A and Paris. BTW he’s head to toe in Topman.

Party promoter Lloyd looks great in all black and his gold trainers really boost this simple but chic outfit. Killer Topman bowtie!

James must have got the memo that blown up animal prints are hot this winter. This wolf jumper is an easy way to make a statement whilst at the same time keeping practical and warm.
