In case you hadn’t heard… Pantone have revealed their 2019 Colour of the Year: LIVING CORAL. An ‘animated and life affirming hue’ that ‘energises and enlivens’; this spirited shade is equal parts bright, playful and colourfully optimistic – the perfect tinge of coral to set your minds ablaze. In honour of this year’s hero shade, we’ve compiled a list of 9 glowing inspirations that will have you living the coral life in no time.
LIP SERVICE
Take cues from Ms. Kendall and opt for a matte coral lip to brighten your face (and mood) this season and beyond. The perfect pop of colour.
HAIR PLAY
Looking to update your locks in 2019? We love this luminous coral colour by Aveda Global Artistic Director for Hair Color, Ian Michael Black.
NAIL IT
As Pantone’s official beauty partners, Butter London have released three limited edition Nail Lacquers inspired by this year’s chosen colour.
GET YOUR KICKS
Because who doesn’t love a coloured sneaker? Colour proof your shoe closet with a new pair from Vans.
FROCK UP
Olivia Palermo in Giambattista Valli = EVERYTHING. Stylists, take note.
BAG A BEAUTY
The perfect tran-seasonal accessory, a coral hued handbag is a great way to road test this year’s coolest colour. Chanel optional.
ACCESSOIRE
Likewise, pops of saccharine coral translate beautifully to accessories and clutches. Extra points for colour blocking.
CORAL CRUSH
Throwing it back to Nicole Thompson’s lush eye look for this year’s Bazaar in Bloom. Major beauty moment.
