2015 Color of the Year Marsala
Pantone, the leading authority in color, recently announced its rich, captivating 2015 Color of the Year Marsala. Described as a “naturally earthy and robust wine red” by Pantone, this deep red-brown hue will be the must-have color in fashion, beauty and home décor in the coming year. Here’s some example pieces that you can find on Kohl’s site currently, but hurry this color sells out fast!
Marsala wine is a fortified wine from Sicily. It’s commonly used for cooking to create rich caramelized sauces. When you are wearing Marsala, you forget about the winter cold and start dreaming of the gorgeous Sicilian sun and countryside!
Kohl’s has so many different pieces in the Marsala tones, but if you see something in that tone…BUY IT! I found several of the items that I adored were gone just a week later. The marsala color is hot hot hot this year! Also visit Tanya’s Shopping Diet Blog on Facebook to see how she styled the Marsala color.
Here’s some more Marsala ideas from Kohls! #Yes2You #FindYourYes
Lipstick Feature: The Lipstick featured in this post is from Lipstick Queen–Red Carpet Edit ($55). All the lipsticks in this collection are enriched with nourishing natural oils and protective anti-oxidant Vitamin E, this hydrating trio will leaves lips soft, supple and deliciously moisturized. Red Sinner was my favorite for the collection, because it looked great with everything I put on this winter season. The Saint red was more sheer and good for everyday. Finally the Red Metal really did have a metallic look that was a fun as it was surprising!

I was watching Home Free last night. They were painting and the girl was talking about the color she chose being marsala. It’s the pantone color of the year she told them. The guys said it looked burgundy. I was happy to say I knew the color. Thanks. Plus just shows you it’s everywhere even as a paint color for the ceiling.
I’ve noticed this shade even for spring and summer. Marsala nail polish is very popular it seems and goes with everything.
I like the Simply Vera Vera Wang Crepe Faux-Wrap Dress because it looks very nice!
I would love that skirt because it would go with so many different tops and it’s easy to dress up or make it casual.
I love the SONOMA life + style® Everyday Camisole – Women’s, because it could really make a dark-colored suit or jacket pop!
I like the Simply Vera Vera Wang Fit & Flare Sweater Dress. The dress has long sleeves to keep your arms warm in the cooler months and you can always use leggings and boots with them.
I love the Marsala colored Kitchen Aide because I couldn’t live without my Kitchen Aid. I use it daily, but I want a gorgeous one, and this Marsala brings a pop of color to my otherwise functional but a bit drab kitchen
