One of my favorite aspects of fashion how color trends evolve. Now that fashion week has arrived in New York City, I am starting to fantasize about clothes. During fashion week, the designers present their collections a full six months in advance giving stores a chance to buy what they want. The fall clothes that were presented last spring showed a lot of yellow.
Not Canary Yellow
Now before you get scared off , this is not a Big Bird or tweety bird sort of yellow. This warm yellow is very soft as the name suggests… “misted yellow”

How to wear yellow this season
For those who may be reluctant to wear too much yellow near your face, this yellow is very well suited for accessories as the color goes so well with all the colors in the autumn palette. Whether for a bag or a printed yellow scarf, a touch of yellow does go a long way. Yellow used in a print will be the very popular this fall.
Yellow Prints are hot this fall, this glamorous peacock scarf is a good investment that you can wear all year. |
What the experts at Pantone had to say
Pantone is the leading predictor of trends (although a lecture I went to said this is not a “predictor” so much as a “reflection” of what they are already seeing in the marketplace.) From their website they say: Adding a ray of sunlight and warmth, optimistic Misted Yellow alludes to the promise of spring to come.
Yellow is a good investment
Looking ahead to the spring 2015 color trend report (yes, the report is already out!) There is a yellow in that palette too which they renamed as “custard” but it is basically the same color as misted yellow. So any accessories or transitional pieces you buy now in yellow will also work in the spring.

A little yellow help from my friends…
I invited my artsy craftsy friends to share their yellow creations here and you can too! Just add a link to your etsy listing or a blog post on yellow and don’t forget to tweet and like on facebook when you are done!
Your work is awesome. It's hard to do this kind of art work if you don't have the passion and talent to do it.
You have such beautiful work! 🙂 The peacock is definitely bold but has lots of class. I'd love to have something like this in my own home.
you can collect this one for only 1800. OR you can find a smaller one for less in my etsy shop: https://www.etsy.com/shop/SchulmanArts/search?search_query=peacock&order=date_desc&view_type=gallery&ref=shop_search
omg i love this in my walk in closet! just a beauty to look at everyday! amazing painting!
I want this like I really really want this. I have two peacock side lamps in my bedroom and something like this in different colors would go perfect in my room. Why can't I have $3000 dollars I would totally have something like this commissioned.
wonderful painting. Peacocks are such beautiful birds
What a beautiful painting, I love all the colors. I am sure someone will want to adopt it.
Ah bummer on the size! The peacock is really pretty though, even if it is a wee bit small for your client's order.
That is so beautiful! I would love to hang that in my living room as well.
Wow! What a beautiful masterpiece! So relaxing for the eyes to see/look at..
This is really a nice statement piece to have in any living room. It's also a good conversation starter with guests who visit.
Stunning work! Thanks for showing it in your home and your clients. I would never get a thing done as I would sit and stare at it all day.
Gahhh peacocks! LOL j/k well not really…. I'm seriously scared of peacocks…. beautiful painting though.
Wow! Your so talented. It's absolutely beautiful. I would hang it in my living room myself. I love it!
I want it! It is so pretty! I love peacocks.
That's such beautiful piece of art. It totally brightens the entire living room.
Yeah, the great thing about this painting is that with all that color, you could pretty much match it to anything.
That's a really gorgeous painting. I love peacocks to begin with, so I might be a little biased. =D
What a great job on the painting. It is so beautiful with the colors etc. and it goes with most other colors it looks like too. Thanks for sharing and hope you find a buyer which I think you will soon.
That painting is beautiful! You have an amazing talent & hopefully someday I can have one of your pieces.
How frustrating! Hopefully it sells quickly. It's beautiful!
