May this periwinkle purple (very peri) shade bring a “happy and warm” energy to 2022
Pantone has spoken, and the real color of the year for 2022 is Very Peri (regardless of what other outlets may say). The “happiest and warmest of blue hues,” we hope this periwinkle purple shade brings the same energy to 2022. It may not be the easiest color to wear, but hey we’re always up for a style challenge. All in the name of keeping our hopes up and fashion. Ahead, four ways to introduce Very Peri to your wardrobe, from purple accessories to a head-to-toe lavender look.
PURPLE PROSE
The easiest way to wear color, especially for the color averse, is through bags, shoes and other accessories. Choose one or color coordinate your bold extras but keep the rest of your look in muted or neutral hues.
