By ksha001
Lilac
1. Lilac evokes the freshness of summer. It’s tantalizing, romantic, and airy. Picture the gemstone color of lilac amethyst for inspiration.
Yellow
2. The warm bright color of Yellow. This isn’t your Grandmother Kitchen paint color, but rather a power yellow. Picture a banana or the gemstone citrine.
Aqua
3. Aqua… This unusual hueadds an imaginative touch to the palette and will add as a statement piece. Picture the gemstone aquamarine aqua.
Orange
4. We can warm things up with a shade of Orange. Picture a tangerine to get the right match or the gemstone Sapphire Orange. This will elevate a boring outfit from drab to fab!
Magenta
5. Magenta is in the red-pink scheme. This can be a choice for cosmetics, especially a light blush. The gemstone Dark Rose is a perfect match.
Pastel Green
6. Ever wanted a lime margarita? Well, a pastel greenis the next color that will be significant in the spring. With the right accessories and a monochromatic outfit, it will fit right in. The gemstone Jade is an inspiration.
Purple
7. Purple, a distinct ornamental purple, exudes uniqueness and creativity. Dark amethyst gemstone is a starting point.
Blue
8. Next we look at Blueberries, a dark bold blue. This is a classic color that repeats itself in many seasons. It works as an alternative to black. Sapphire colored gemstone is a good match.
Brown
9. Brown, an adaptable blend of beige and gray, another alternative to black. Picture the gemstone Carnelia.
Beige
1o. Beige, warm beige neutral that will compliment any color in the season top 10. The gemstone Amber is a good match
To continue with the color blocking trend from 2011; try mixing Purple with Orange and Magenta. Combine Pastel Green with Lilac and Aqua for a subtle alternative, or combine Pastel Green with Lilac and Brown for a more classical variation.Yellow is best complimented with Blue. For a safer bet, add a natural neutral like Beige to the mix.
So update your wardrobe and stay current in the game with these trendy colors for Spring 2012. Live life through your style.

Hi Jewelz, I totally agree with you about body types. I design clothes as well so I do understand the mechanics about designing for a size 2. However your idea about models with different body type is great! I'm a "fashion freak" and like you I try on to see what looks best on me. Furthermore trends are not the most ideal things to follow, I always recommend buying a few pieces and working them in your current wardrobe, especially color. Anyhow thanks for reading and the compliment and I hope I somewhat inspired your inner fashionista!

Most of these are nice. Some designers I just want to ask "What drug were you on?" Not to you of course, the designers. I really like some of these though, they seem classy. Personally, I never focused too much on this stuff because of my build I have to try on clothing that suits me. I wish they would use models that had several different types of bodies, then I might buy some of their clothing. I guess that would be too challenging for them. Oh well, nice blog.
