Drumroll, Please...

Pantone announced last night that the color of the year for 2013 is emerald! Which is no surprise, considering how overdone Tangerine Tango ended up becoming. I mean, that sh*t was EVERYWHERE.

A nice regal, cool color is just what people (or maybe just me) are craving. Not just green, which is lively and fresh, but emerald. Big difference there. Emerald conveys a sense of richness, formality and elegance.

Steven Stolman, president of Scalamadré, said "As the only Jewish member of the Irish Georgian Society, I feel uniquely qualified to discuss the color Emerald. It's a happy-go-lucky color. Although I've never really been comfortable with the green beer ... I love emerald green for jewelry, of course, and clothing." As a part-time Palm Beacher, he added, "I know how important it is when mixed with pink."

Not into Pantone's choice? Sherwin Williams picked a similar aloe while Benjamin Moore went with lemon sorbet.

And let's not forget one of the most iconic emerald dresses...
