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 would like to get the Croft & Barrow® Essential Tee in painted lines purple.
Columbia Sportswear Solid Fleece Jacket – Women’s. Columbia makes quality products. I’m always cold and another fleece jacket wouldn’t hurt 😉
My favorite Marsala colored item is Chaps Embellished Faux-Wrap Evening Gown – Women’snn. It is simply gorgeous and would look beautiful on my daughter.
Chaps Floral Sheath Dress is as close as I could come to Marsala red. They must not have many. Mostly they have basic red or Lakehouse red. Why aren’t they advertising the color of the year, unless maybe no one is making it in Marsala.
I do love clothes at Kohls. Its where I shop since JC Penny really dropped the ball a few years ago and cheapened all their clothes.
I like the Simply Vera Vera Wang Crepe Faux-Wrap Dress – Women’s at Kohls!!! In the picture above I love that handbag!!
I would love to have a purse but also the cookware. I need some new cookware but I also need a new purse. The one above is my style.
Kohls has nice things to buy.
I love the marsala sweaters because sweaters are the only thing I can think of right now when it is below zero outside. I need more sweaters and I love the new marsala ones like the Croft & Barrow® Mixed-Media Sweater Jacket – Women’s. Thanks for a great giveaway!
Juicy velour set. My daughter would like it.
I love the Olga full figure bra. The color is beautiful and I’m tired of wearing white ones!
I like the dishes.
The AB Studio Striped Sweater Dress is cute!!
I like the twill leggings! kohls.com/product/prd-1759367/simply-vera-vera-wang-twill-leggings.jsp I can jazz them up with a great top and make a nice outfit!
I like the Apt. 9® Midi Scuba Pencil Skirt – Women’s – perfect for office wear and love the purple Henna color. thanks!
It was hard to find a product that had the true beautiful color of marsala, but I think that the Tek Gear® Printed Yoga Capri Leggings – Women’s in Floral Purple print qualify 😉
I love SONOMA life + style Women’s Comfort Ballerina Flats in merlot. They would work perfectly with my new coat I will be getting.
Juicy Couture velour set because they are so comfortable
I really love the wine glasses, I love this color!
I could see myself rocking that color in purses 🙂
