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 really like the Juicy Couture Velour Tracksuit – Women’s but I can’t see if it’s in marsala. I can’t see anything with marsala on it.
I like these Vera wang pants. kohls.com/product/prd-1759367/simply-vera-vera-wang-twill-leggings.jsp?pCode=1759367
I need a few accent pillows for the living room. I prefer an interesting print and there were a few differing ones that suit the bill in the Marsala family.
I must be overly tired, but I could not find anything with the Marsala color. So, I found this Dana Buchman Wolcott Leather Crossbody Bag. It’s in a cherry color, so I hope that’s close enough to the Marsala color family. I hope the link works so you can see it. It’s really nice, not too large, and I like shoulder bags.
