Fashion Besties, the clock is ticking down to New Year's Eve, and you know what that means: It's time to dress to impress, whether you're heading to a fab night out or night in. Regardless, let us help you put your party pants on.  If you're attending a glamorous party, hosting an intimate gathering, or looking forward to going to bed, (#justsayin), your outfit should make you feel fabulous and festive.   In this week's episode, Holly Katz is dishing out everything you need to know to slay your New Year's Eve look—from the hottest colors and trends to outfit formulas that will make everyone envious of your style. #duh   Download this episode now, because no one wants to commit a fashion crime on the most glamorous night of the year! (LINK)   Also: Don't Forget to check out Holly's Pinterest board (What to Wear for New Year's Eve) for her curated inspiration!   Key Talking Points   1. Trending Colors for New Year's Eve • Merlot (Oxblood/Dark Cherry): A rich, sophisticated hue perfect for elegant sweater dresses, wax-coated jeans, or knee-high leather boots. Featured brand: Toccin.   • Mocha Mousse: The 2025 Pantone Color of the Year, a velvety, light brown that pairs beautifully with navy, cream, or gold. Get on it!   • Electric Blue: A bold alternative to black, ideal for standing out in stunning sets like Clara Sunwoo's liquid leather collection.   • Seafoam Green: A refreshing throwback with modern appeal. Check out ostrich feather jackets and leather pieces at Alice + Olivia.   2. Sequins, Metallics, and Statement Pieces • Sequins during the day? Yaassssss. And always a wise choice for New Year's Eve. Beware of fake sequins- #fashioncrime (no glued-on glitter allowed!).   • Metallic leather pants or sequin joggers? Always a good idea.    • Holly's styling tip: Pair metallics with neutral outerwear-timeless and classic.    3. The Ultimate Outfit Formula • Step 1: Blank Canvas – Choose a foundational piece like a dress, jumpsuit, or top.   • Step 2: Layering Piece – Add a turtleneck, blazer, or even a lacy bra to create interest and texture.   • Step 3: Outerwear as a Statement – A fabulous coat is a non-negosh for chilly weather. Don't be afraid to rock a pattern or brightly colored dress coat. Outerwear like these will totally stop the room when you enter.   PRO TIP: (never!) Accessories are a must. Jewelry and shoes should enhance—not overpower—your outfit.   4. Avoid These Fashion Crimes • Sneakers on New Year's Eve: Hard pass. Opt for metallic boots or sparkly heels instead.   • The “Everyday Look” Trap: Don't wear the same old jeans and sweater. Treat yourself to something special, even if it's just for a casual gathering. The goal is to be the best dressed in the room. As always.   5. Must-Listen Correlating Episodes For even more style inspiration and guidance, Holly highlights these can't-miss episodes:   • Episode 118: "The Only Wardrobe Checklist You'll Ever Need" Perfect for evaluating your wardrobe and ensuring you have everything necessary for a cohesive, stylish closet.

Listen here.   • Episode 219: "How to Style Boots: Part Two" Holly takes boot styling to the next level with fresh ideas and inspiration for statement boots that will be your go-to accessory from now on.

Deep dive: In Episode 17 we touched on leak detection from the water meter. Let's get a little deeper on how to determine where the leak may be. Amy shares that there was an electronic alert from the water meter sent to the water company due to usage detected every hour for a seven day period. Usage was up as well.  How to determine if there is a leak - find the water meter. Clean off the glass. Typically two indicators and numbers. Low flow indicator will spin quickly when water is flowing. Turn the water on in the house and note the movement of the indicators. Turn off all faucets and water using appliances, note the position of the indicators. If you notice movement immediately there may be a large amount of water loss. Wait 20-30 minutes and note the position the indicators. If they have moved then there is a likely leak. Also a significant increase in your water bill or usage noted on your bill is another indication. Toilet leak test using dye in the tank. If dye flows into the bowl after a period of 20 minutes or so, the flapper is the ulprit. Color update: Pantone Color of the Year  "Encompassing the qualities of the blues, yet at the same time possessing a violet-red undertone, PANTONE 17-3938 Very Peri displays a spritely, joyous attitude." Questions   What do I use for slippery/icy deck and stairs? Coconut mats When I turn off the water to drain and clean the toilet my hand comes back wet. What would cause water to,leak by the shut off valve? Leaking valve through the valve packing, condensate from toilet tank or connection to fill valve under the tank. Dry well and check the blue shop towel.

Happy Holidays!

Pantone started as a graphics standards system for designers to provide a way to standardise how we define and refer to colours. It has become so influential that it is now a primary influencer in the colour trends followed by the fashion industry. In 2000 the Pantone Color Institute set up the Pantone Color of the Year. It has evolved into a significant trendsetting tool and now takes 9 months of research to select. Pantone describe the colour of the year as "...a color snapsho of what we see taking place in our global culture that serves as an expression of a mood and an attitude."My fascination with colour began when I trained as a Reflexologist and started to learn about energy and chakras and their relationship with colour. So I wanted to explore the combination of the selection of Illuminating Yellow as the Pantone 2021 Color of the Year and what that represents energetically to understand how I can use that to my advantage in my designs and makes for 2021. To many this combination of topics may seem a bit woo woo but if you are open to gaining new perspectives on seemingly ordinary things then I think you will find my chat with my good friend and energy expert, Sue Ricks intriguing. In this episode you will hear:> How Sue began working with colour and energy> What chakras are and how the colour yellow relates to them> Ways to incorporate yellow into your life> What types of energetic and emotional issues yellow may help to address> What our connection to different colours can tell us> How to experiment and bring colour into your lifeUseful links and resources> Pantone Color of the Year 2021> Sue with Chakra Chart > Sue with Solar Plexus Reflex PointConnect with SueWebsite: https://suericks.comSue Ricks Academy: https://suericksacademy.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/suericksacademyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/suericks_gtr/Connect with me (Jacqui)Website: https://sewmuchmorefun.co.uk/Instagram: https://www.instagram.co.uk/sewmuchmorefun/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/sewmuchmorefun/

The solid fortitude of Ultimate Gray blends perfectly with the uplifting promise of Illuminating yellow to move us forward into the New Year. No doubt, 2020 will be the butt of jokes for a very long time! And flipping the calendar to a new year doesn’t automatically make all the hard things disappear. This is so important to remember! There is no magic button. 2021 will be what you make it! So how about joining me in taking the perspective that Pantone is offering? We are entrepreneurs. Resiliency runs in our veins! So I really want to challenge you to start this year off by looking at the two partners in this color combination. Let’s make 2021 a year of strength, hope, and growth! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/savvychicdesign/support

Taylor Swift released an album while we were sleeping, The Pantone Color of the year, An amazing Home Alone gingerbread house, College of Pop Culture Knowledge, A different way to save for kids' college, FAO Schwartz is offering an overnight stay

How can we best describe the year 2020? With a paint swatch, that's how. 

Leatrice Eiseman talks color every day and will talk with us about the importance of color, the Pantone Color of the Year, and what she sees trending.

Ever wonder why there are so few blue flowers? Don't even get Matthew started! (Oops - too late) His first wishlist plant was a blue rose when he was a toddler. A few decades later, and with Classic Blue as the Pantone Color of the Year, are we any closer? Have your science textbooks handy as we delve into ways genetic modification is changing the cut flower industry, a garden favorite that changes color already, and discuss why we even want blue flowers in the first place.

What does a Georgia O’Keefe painting OR the Weber Telescope have to do with the color of next year’s fashions? More than you might guess. As Louis Armstrong sings, we live in a wonderful, colorful world and my guest today likely knows more about color in our world than most anyone else in it. Leatrice Eiseman has been called “the international color guru.” She has authored ten books on color and continues to consult, train and influence in all things color. In her research, Lee has created word association lists for almost every color you can name, but if I had to choose just one word to associate with her, it would have to be fascinating. Truly, I could listen to Lee ALL day long—and actually I have—back in 2004 when I attended her 4-day Color & Design Course which changed my life (not even kidding.) Since my in-person experience with Lee I have surrounded myself with color and used it with confidence. I have been able to share what I know, how I know it and why it makes a difference. I’m so excited for you to listen to and learn from Lee. She talks about her childhood home, who has influenced her career and what she and other color experts do to forecast color trends. In her work with Pantone, Lee says, “It’s not that we’re reinventing colors all the time, but that we are inventing new color combinations!” Listen as she talks about seeing a full-page advertisement for Gudren Sjödén in The New Yorker magazine and how that confirmed her hunches about an emerging folklorico color story. Of course you’ll love listening to Lee talk about the selection of Classic Blue as the Pantone Color of the Year for 2020. Resources: If you’re looking for a comprehensive and user-friendly introduction you’ll find it in Lee’s book, Color Harmony. My personal favorites are The Color Answer Book and Colors For Your Every Mood. Lee notes that she was influenced early on by the work of Faber Birren. You can learn much more about Lee on her website, leatriceeiseman.com or by following her on Instagram @leatriceeiseman In addition to her Color & Design Course, Lee is also teaching online. Check out her More Alive With Color course. I opened today’s episode with What a Wonderful World sung by Louis Armstrong. Thank YOU for listening. Please consider leaving me a review on iTunes!

In This Episode In this edition of “The Jewelry District,” you’ll hear JCK editor-in-chief Victoria Gomelsky and news director Rob Bates discuss the latest news, including 2019 holiday sales, the upcoming JCK Tucson jewelry show, what the stars wore to the 2020 Golden Globes, and LVMH’s recent acquisition of Tiffany & Co. You’ll also hear a positively grotesque weird story of the week that’ll be sure to make your stomach churn.   Show Notes 00:30 Rob Bates recaps the trends of the 2019 holiday sales compared to 2018. 02:30 Victoria Gomelsky is excited for JCK Tucson and predicts the colors that will be big this year. 06:27 Victoria gives the scoop on what jewelry was popular for stars at the 2020 Golden Globes. 08:25 Rob talks about what LVMH's recent acquisition of Tiffany and Co. means for brand consolidation across the industry. 18:18 Weird Story of the Week   Episode Credits Hosts: Rob Bates and Victoria GomelskyEditor: Levi SharpeProducer and engineer: Natalie ChometPlugs: jckonline.com, @jckmagazine   Show Recap 2019 Holiday Sales It was a decent year for sales at the end of 2019. Rob comments on the main difference between the 2018 holiday and the 2019 holiday. While physical stores continue to face challenges, there were still plenty of discounts this year. Rob confesses his biggest shopping steal.   JCK Tucson and 2020 Color Predictions JCK Tucson is just three weeks away, and Victoria has some leads on what colors might be big this year ahead. The Pantone Color of the Year, Classic Blue, is an obvious go-to, but does Victoria think it will it make a difference in the world of gems in 2020? She lets us know what other colors to keep on our radar going into the new year and beyond. What Was Hot at the 2020 Golden Globes There’s one jewelry style that stood out at the Golden Globes. Can you guess what it was? The statement necklace! Victoria lets us know who made a statement and who didn't. And, she reveals the star known for her minimalist style who chose to go big with diamonds at this year's show. LVMH Takes Tiffany: What Is Industry Consolidation Doing to Us? LVMH took over Tiffany & Co. toward the end of 2019—and Rob has mixed feelings on this new ownership. Should we be putting all of our eggs in one basket? Victoria cites a 2014 article called “Jewelry Industry in 2020” that predicted more industry consolidation. Was this new ownership written in the stars? Will more companies consolidate sooner than later? And will Tiffany remain the traditional American company it always has been or will it lean into more French style? Weird Story of the Week Eek! It doesn’t get weirder than this. Rob lets us in on this newest weird story originally reported by two British newspapers. A Japanese man—and perhaps the more squeamish shouldn’t keep reading—took an entire year of this fingernail clippings and turned them into an engagement ring for his significant other. He made a YouTube video of the entire process—and Rob describes it in detail for those of us who would rather not see it for ourselves.

Jennifer Bänziger and Ramona Kroker are the masterminds behind Atelier Zweigestalten, an interior architecture and planning office. These two women bring energy, knowledge and boss power to the table and are 150% committed to their company. They don’t shy away from challenges, but they know what to look out for. Whether that’s filling out insurance paperwork, working for free and trying to go with the flow. Gender vs. Age, Jennifer and Ramona consider the latter more of an issue (due to experience). Why is being a young business owner seen as critical? Why do women think too much? And how do they feel about their Pantone Color of the Year (Coral) painted wall?  Since we’re celebrating Switzerland’s Independence Day (August 1st), let’s also celebrate these two bossladies, who both happen to be (partially) Swiss, and let them tell you how they became independent business owners, and how they manage to work together (in harmony). ﹒﹒﹒ www.atelierzweigestalten.ch www.instagram.com/atelierzweigestalten www.instagram.com/jmt_creative

Speaker 3: 01:43 Yeah, definitely. Thanks so much for having me, Lauren. Um, I have, I studied surface pattern design in college actually. And um, when I graduated I was living in New York City and I designed for bedding and then table linens and finally for baby apparel for baby gap. And then I wanted to leave New York City. I'd been there for about nine years. And so, uh, my husband and I moved down to Raleigh, North Carolina and I went into freelance. So I have been freelancing for about six years now. And I, um, have a lot of different types of clients, do a lot of client work, um, for party paper so you can see my work in party city, um, for like wrapping paper and gift bags, a lot of stuff in different, I'm like Tj Maxx and Marshall's and target and kind of all over the place. And I also licensed my artwork, so greeting cards and rugs and also give bags and wrapping kind of stuff, a lot of stationery. Um, and so that is kind of a Speaker 1: 02:53 me in a nutshell. Awesome. And for those of you who don't know me, I'm Lauren. I have been a senior textile designer for the past 10 years. Um, and I'm really excited because my outdoor rug designs are selling at target this season. So if you're in need of our raw, go check that out. Um, but now, uh, starting as of February 1st this year, 2019, I'm starting as an independent surface pattern designer. So I'm really excited to go to blueprint in New York and meet a bunch of other surface pattern designers. Um, but yeah, so let's get into some of the trends. So first we're going to start talking about, um, Elizabeth Atlanta Gift Market Trend PDF. So if you sign up for her newsletter, you get all sorts of really great trend insights that she puts together and kind of does all of the research ahead of time for you. Um, so to get the free pdf, you can visit her website and sign up for her email list. I'm, the link is here and I'll also link it in the description below. Um, so let me pull up whore, uh, here is her pdf. Okay. And so Elizabeth, um, if you don't mind going ahead and kind of explaining, um, what is important about America's mart gift and home show? I'm, why is that important for surface pattern designers? Speaker 3: 04:15 Definitely. Thanks so much. Um, yeah, so I went to, uh, in Atlanta, um, they have a two times a year is America's mart gift and home show. And they have like three buildings in downtown Atlanta that have showrooms of gifts, companies, home decor companies, uh, rug companies, um, apparel companies, all kinds of like giftable things stationary. And they have a permanent show rooms down there. And so they have different shows throughout the year. But the gift and home show is a time when they also, people who don't have permanent show rooms can also come down and kind of set up a temporary showroom and they're all showing their wares for people, uh, for buyers who mmm. Who buy for their stores, you know, for their gift stores or their home decor stores or their both teaks all that kind of stuff. So it's a all in one place to, it's basically like going to 150 gift show, uh, gift shops at once. So it's like a perfect, you know, opportunity to see what's going on in the gift world, in the stationary world, in the home decor worlds. So, um, I had gone since 2013 and so I wanted to check it out cause I'd been going to Sirtex every year and this year I decided to skip Sirtex and go to America's mart. Speaker 1: 05:43 I see. Okay, cool. So for those of, um, for designers who are kind of new at discovering trends or finding trends, how did you, out of, you know, you said this is like going through hundreds and hundreds of gift shops. How do you decide what's a trend Speaker 3: 05:58 versus something that's not a trend when you were just kind of overwhelmed by seeing so many days for art and gifts patterns, you figure out what is a trend actually quite overwhelming I have to say. Um, and also I would note that like this is the stuff that's like going to be in stores shortly. You know, they're selling their current line, but it was designed probably a year ago at least, you know, six months to a year ago. Um, you know, and then it had to be produced and then it's, you know, the samples are ready and they're hoping people are ordering it and it's going to go into stores. Right? So this isn't necessarily like the cutting edge things that are coming. Right. You know, out of, uh, you know, very trend for a person's brain necessarily. It is stuff that's probably a little bit older, but still it hasn't fully gone into stores and trends kind of do tend to last at least for a couple of seasons are a couple of years. Speaker 3: 07:00 And one thing I noticed is there is, you know, there was definitely a lot of stuff that we've seen before, stuff that, you know, wasn't brand new. Um, one wrap up or like roundup that I read, uh, you know, kind of hypothesize that the reason for that is that people are, you know, a little bit nervous that, um, you know, they want to see something that has sold already and it is a proven, you know, good bestseller or whatever. And so they're a little bit scared maybe to jump into new things. The wrap up that I was reading was talking about, you know, like for economy reasons, but I don't, you know, I don't know. But there is a lot of stuff that we've seen in before. So like the farmhouse trend with a lot of like home decor stuff with, you know, big script lettering, brush script lettering, um, and sort of like the, uh, like galvanized metal and wood, you know, whether it would, and sort of that, that sort of style was, you know, really prevalent, um, saw a lot of stuff that I'm sure you could recognize like flamingos and llamas and Unicorns and mermaids and all those kind of like a fantastical creatures that we've seen a lot of, you know, in, in the, in the market. Speaker 3: 08:20 Um, and the big thing that we see at all these places, all these gifts shops are a Christmas trends, right? Christmas is a big, big seller. And so, yeah, you can see, I'm kind of talking about some of the things that we've seen already. Um, Christmas Pharm House was a big thing. And, um, you know, buffalo plaid, I say that green buffalo plaid was a little bit newer, but red buffalo plaid was definitely still in there. And lots of chemicals. Um, some really, you know, things that we've seen in past Christmases, the kind of like vintage red truck with the Christmas tree is still out there. Um, but to find, to figure out what is, you know, a trend, I think that for me it's just kind of what pops out, like, um, you know, as something a little bit newer that I've, that I see, uh, you know, a couple times more than more than just like one little interesting thing. Speaker 3: 09:19 So he having, you know, studied trends for the past couple of years with my newsletter, it's like, I feel like I've seen it all. So if it's something that kind of like perks my interest and says like, oh, that's kind of weird, or like, oh, I haven't seen that. Like, even if it's just one like animal off to the side, it's like, oh yeah, you don't usually see like, you know, I don't know what animal, but that if I then see it again later in the day and then again, then I'm like, Hey, okay, that could be something. And so I try to highlight trends that are, um, that could, you know, spark something sparks some creativity basically. And that aren't necessarily like everywhere. Um, you know, I'm not going to feature unicorns because everyone has seen a million unicorns and it is still trending, but that's not really what I do. Speaker 1: 10:10 Right. I think that as a designer, once you sort of get into that process of researching trends, it's almost sort of intuitive. Like something that does, like you said, kind of perk your interest or you are kind of responding to innately then you know, and especially if you start to see it over and over again, you know, they say that in order to buy something you have to see it seven times. And so I think that as, as designers it's like, well, you know, we are sort of picking up on an evolution of thing is too, like one design trend could naturally evolve into something else or it could marry with another trend. Um, I don't know. Like I remember just in rugs, um, the trellis and lattice patterns were so big for a long sort of the two color. And now they're sort of starting to be a little bit dated, but it's like, okay, how, you know, how can we evolve that trend? How can we maybe make it three collar or multicolor or, um, maybe make it a little bit more global, you know, there's different things you can do to a trend once it starting to kind of get some age on it, I guess, um, to make it evolve and grow the I agree. Okay. Okay. So, Speaker 3: 11:27 so this first page, um, just for fun was kind of things that I couldn't make a full like trend board out of, but I just kind of want to call it out because again, I kind of pricking my eye and I thought they were sort of interesting. So, um, last year for 2018, um, I did a trend guide of a roundup of SIRTEX and a national stationery show and one of my trends was called anatomy class and it was sort of about a female anatomy, uh, you know, like naked ladies boobs. Like, literally, there were cards out there with like, you know, like the whole, like female anatomy, like, like a real, like ovaries and stuff like that. So, um, so that is, you know, has been trending. The female form has definitely been trending, but, uh, this little, um, this first image with the like really, really happy jumping around naked ladies just made me smile. Speaker 3: 12:22 And so I just wanted to kind of call it out because it's sort of, you know, it reminded me that that trend is still going and they just seem like they're loving life so much that I was happy about it. Then the second one is I had also recently in my newsletter sent out a, a trend about floral crowns on animals being so huge in illustration and greeting cards and things like that. And one interesting thing that I saw, um, it was a green box, uh, which also like it's kind of owns oopsy daisy and they do wall art, right? And so one of their artists, actually a couple of their artists, um, had, you know, floral crowns was still big with the animals, but one sort of like evolution of that, again as talking about how to make it something newer and different and kind of bring it forward was I'm having sort of dessert and food items as crowns on animals. Speaker 3: 13:15 So I thought that was interesting. Take. And then the last thing that I showed there, it and that I saw a couple call outs of at the gift show, but couldn't really find enough reference to say it was a trend was the sort of the idea of pills and pharmaceuticals as like a little bit of a joke or just like something, something kind of interesting. So that card says hope they give you the good drugs and get well card by Lionheart prints. Oh, cute. Cool. Okay. So my first trend that I, um, wanted to call out as called plant ponds. And um, as I say here, uh, food ponds have been around for a while. We've seen, you know, Tacos and Sushi and pizza and give me a pizza, my heart and that kind of thing. Um, but I saw a big, uh, you know, a big showing of plant ponds because house plants have been a really big trend. Speaker 3: 14:13 Um, and now that's sort of evolving. So now we're getting sort of the two things together. The food ponds or the ponds I should say. And the house plants are coming together and these planters and different products have all these kind of, you can see, oh yeah. And here to make fronds and just like all these kind of like silly little ponds on plant life. So that was my first, um, call out. I left Penn. So this is making me really happy, you know. All right. My second one is called masters of Maine and this was a trend that actually I think it started probably in the home decor worlds. Um, and maybe with your rug experience, you've kind of been seeing it around, but I sort of pay more attention to gift and stationary because that's sort of my, um, you know, lane for what I designed. Speaker 3: 15:06 So I hadn't really noticed it necessarily, um, until it sort of started seeping into what I do. Um, but you know, I guess are ready in home decor is seeing these kind of, um, Ming vases and these, uh, uh, Chanel Zari vases with this, you know, like traditional Chinese look to them. The blue and white, um, has been, you know, those vases have been, you know, a decorative item that you can get for your home for a while. And now sort of it's becoming a surface pattern thing where you could see their feature featured is like, you know, uh, a tray that has those vases and, you know, Napkins and prints were those vases are being drawn out and illustrated and use for, you know, for artwork. And, um, I also liked the kind of the take on it where it's like sculptural pumpkin's up in the top right. Um, where yeah, they use the kind of imagery, but they put it on a pumpkin. And so that's just kind of, you know, something a little bit different. So I thought that was, I noticed a lot of that around, um, markets. Speaker 3: 16:15 Cool. Yeah, I've definitely seen this in home decor and um, there have been trans in rag with a kind of related to this more bent, a little bit more like Shibori or teak or things like that. The indigo thing is definitely been around and yeah. Shit. Yeah, you're right. I agree. And then the last one is sort of, I think it's, I think it's going to kind of emerge. I sort of hedge my bets when I talk about it and uh, in the uh, intro, but it's been sort of a graphic design trend for a little bit. Um, Paper Cup progress is what I'm calling this. And so it's sort of these paper cut paper sculpture, um, flowers which are really beautiful. And you can buy something like this on Etsy. The very center image is like an Etsy image that you can buy this kind of decor for your wedding or your party or whatever. Speaker 3: 17:10 Um, and the top, uh, center. And then the top left are both sort of the graphic design, um, versions of it where, you know, it's a, um, poster for one of the gifts companies and the center one was an invitation and that's where the, that kind of imagery was used. But then going around the show, I was seeing a lot of the home decor companies had these sculptural wall are that looks like Paper Cup florals, you know, they were made out of ceramic or resin or whatever, but they kind of looked this 3d paper cut look and then kind of looking it, I saw a couple other references, a wallpaper like that looks like a foe. Um, the bottom left is like a wallpaper that looks like cut paper. And, um, and I, I'm seeing it a lot per like decoration, um, decoration items. So I think that if there's a way, I'm not sure because I mean, I'm an illustrator, I'm not, you know, uh, paper sculptures. But you know, if there's a way to sort of give that cool flat flat turning 3d look to some of your flowers in illustration or whatever, it could be a really cool technique. Speaker 1: 18:26 Yeah, the dimension there is really interesting. I haven't seen that. Speaker 3: 18:30 That's cool. So those were my three big trends that I took away. Now I wouldn't necessarily say those were the biggest trends of market because like I said, some of the biggest trends, the farm house look and you know, um, I, I still saw a lot of lamas and that kind of thing. Um, those were, you know, bigger trends, but those are ones that we've seen before. So what my trend book kind of highlights is that, you know, hopefully something that's a little bit new and kind of sparks your creativity and you know, makes you ready to design some new stuff for your clients and for your portfolio. Speaker 1: 19:05 Did you see any spots? Yup. Yup. Definitely. Still off Speaker 3: 19:12 Kenny and not quite as many. I think that one might be fading, but, okay. Speaker 1: 19:16 Well, I don't know. Hopefully, if that's my opinion, it's, I'm going to Costa Rica on Saturday for my honeymoon. So I'm going to get in to see some real slots. Awesome poster. He gives the best. You've never been. So I'm excited. So fun. Okay, so next we're going to get into the trend of the month, um, which if you're a part of Elizabeth's newsletter, then you're going to get this every month from her. So we are in March and she recently released a new trend called sunshine day. So Elizabeth, can you explain this trend and kind of the impact that that has also on surface pattern designers? Speaker 3: 19:52 Yeah, definitely. So, well, we're all ready for spring, right? I mean this is, it's still, yeah, today here and rainy in Raleigh, North Carolina, but we're ready for spring and I had been seeing a lot of sunshine lately. I've, uh, in on gift products. So you can see from this board, there's a whole array of like rugs, reading cards, mugs, wall are all kinds of things here. And there are all kinds of sporting that, um, bright sunshine. Uh, look with the rays coming out of it. A lot of wordplay and puns. I'm not on here, but I on this board, but there was one that I saw the girls just want to have sun, which I love. And um, I think it also goes back to uh, we'll be talking, you can see there's some, you know, orange and pink and like it's got that living coral vibe and the top, but also mustard yellow is so huge. So it's kind of perfect. Um, that this, this ties right into that too. Speaker 4: 20:51 Cool. Speaker 1: 20:53 All right. So, um, also, and those of us newsletter, she mentioned that apartment therapy has just released a pattern of the year, which they've never done before. So I was really intrigued by this and had to look at APP. So I'm going to actually pull up there web Speaker 4: 21:11 Paige. Speaker 1: 21:13 Um, we can start on that for just a minute. Um, because I was really intrigued by this and good job for Elizabeth for finding it. Speaker 3: 21:23 Cool. It's, I'm happy because, you know, we've, of course we've been hearing color of the year for a long time, but as they explained in this article, they were just, you know, they're like, all right, enough with his color of the year, we're ready for the year. And I'm like, as a surface pattern, I'm totally for it. So, um, they kind of described, I mean definitely a link to the article, you know, hopefully, but check it out because they talk about their process of kind of narrowing it down and some of the other contenders, which were, uh, I think did, they said blush botanicals was a big one that they thought about. Um, and trying to remember what other things, but basically the pattern that they named was, uh, animals, but not the animal prints that we think of in a traditional way, but the full animals. So leopards, zebras and a Cheetah's kind of, you know, walking around. Speaker 3: 22:15 And I've definitely, I agree with this. I have seen this for the past year or two at featured, a couple of these, um, in my newsletter. In fact. Uh, so I, I definitely agree that this is, this is up and coming. I've seen it as wallpaper, it looks to me and saying, and um, when I was at America's mart, I didn't necessarily see that many cats kind of like walking around necessarily, but there were still a lot of like animal prints more than I was really expecting for the gift world. So I was kind of seeing, um, you know, a part of that, a version of that. Speaker 1: 22:52 Yeah. I'm really loving this and I've been seeing a lot of, um, like big cats as well. Like whether it's like tigers or leopards or 100%. Yeah, I've seen this a lot. So it's really interesting that apartment therapy called this out, especially because they have such a big focus on home decor. Um, I dunno, like coming from a rug that, and obviously we, you probably wouldn't put this on her drug. Um, I dunno, you know, Speaker 3: 23:17 crazy. It is crazy, but it's also not, you know, I don't know how scalable it would take a minute for like, you know, everything takes a while to kind of seep into like what people are going to put. Like a rug is a big investment. Right. Speaker 1: 23:31 Right. Could probably pull it off. But other than that, Speaker 3: 23:35 yeah. But it's not going to be, you know, definitely your trellises or you're kind of more safe option, but right. Some of those more trend forward places might start featuring this and you know, as it, if it has legs, we'll have to find out, you know, we won't know until next year or the year after that if it's still kind of around. But it, I could see it seeping into, you know, some rug fashion. Speaker 1: 23:57 Hmm. Okay. So yeah. Apartment therapy saying, but it's a big maximalist but we're seeing a shift away from the stark minimalism, which, I mean, that kind of resonates with me as well because I have a little bit of a hoarder too. I think every artist is with all their supplies and whatnot. Um, but yeah, I love maximalism. I love kind of that Boho global feeling. So, um, but yeah, they're saying that, you know, even in pattern and I'm like surface design that it is a bit maximalist and [inaudible]. MMM. I think also the idea of kind of layering patterns together, coordinating patterns together in the home is going to kind of be a big trend coming forward to definitely. MMM. Yeah. So here is this, um, other big cat on like the bathroom wallpaper. It was really cool. Um, and I'm sure we'll see it in like throw pillows, like that'll be kind of an easy way for people to incorporate this trend. Oh yeah, definitely. Um, but yeah, they kind of just talk about like, you know, why a pattern of the year, like you said, we've always heard about the color of the year. Um, and I will link this article in the description below so you guys can check it out on your own. But Speaker 3: 25:11 yeah. And it has some good, uh, when you read it as some like suggestions of kind of like I said, what they were there other contenders were. So those are other kinds of big things that are happening. Um, so yeah, little hint as to what's going on in the home decor world and also, you know, it translates to gift and stationary and, and kind of everywhere. Speaker 1: 25:33 Yeah, definitely makes sense. Then gift in stationary for sure. Um, but I love seeing it. I love seeing home decor, get more creative like this too. So it's fun. Definitely. All right. Um, okay, so, um, I'm going to touch a little bit on living coral because it is the pillar of the year and we just talked about the pattern of the year from environment therapy. So I couldn't leave out living coral and I do have a nother youtube video, the owl, um, I'll put the slide up for you guys. Um, so this is also in my youtube channel if you want to watch the full video, but I'm just going to give like a really quick summary over living coral. MMM. So living coral kind of embodies our need for a playful expression. I see it as a very happy color. Um, it's very bright and fun. Speaker 1: 26:24 Um, and representing the fusion of modern life. Pantone and coral is a nurturing color that appears in our natural surroundings. So when I first heard this, I thought, what natural, like, you know, when I think of nature, I think of Greens and kind of Browns, but maybe that's just because of where I live, but then when I started to think about it, yeah. Was kind of like, oh yeah, like I guess coral really does exist in the sea, but I'm not in the seat all the time, or it's in a sunset and things like that. So, um, Elizabeth, do you agree with this? Who would you think of coral as being like a natural color? Speaker 3: 26:57 Uh, yeah, I think I'm on the same page as you. Yeah. I wouldn't necessarily think that it's, to me, it's sort of like that pop of color, you know, w um, a little bit different than what I, what I normally see in my actual surroundings, but I guess depending on, yeah. You know, sort of in the Caribbean or wherever, they have a lot brighter colors, um, around them. So it sort of depends, I guess. Speaker 1: 27:22 Yeah. I mean, I definitely see it, like you said, Caribbean. I see it as a happy, like beachy color and it, I, it even reminds me of weddings, like I feel like bridesmaids dresses and things like that, but I just don't usually associate this well or with nature. But again, yeah, I mean it could be, um, a flower, you know, color for flowers, things like that. But I just generally, I think of like more neutral stones and, Speaker 3: 27:45 um, I think we just need to leave the east coast and moved to Hawaii and then we would be living the living coral lifestyle that we all dream for. Speaker 1: 27:57 Ah, I like that idea. Let's do it. But yeah, this is kind of how I traditionally see coral being used. Um, just like in, you know, kind of beachy weddings or as prom dresses, things like that. But, um, when I started to do, so I'm trying to research, I did see how living coral was starting to influence home decor, which was really cool to see. So again, this is kind of how I traditionally imagined coral being used in the home, if at all. Um, and again, I am on the east coast, so I kind of saw it as, uh, you know, in southern coastal homes, kind of a little bit of a preppy vibe. But, um, as I was doing my trend research, I was beginning to see it being used in these like fresh, modern ways that still looks like very sunny in tearful, but kind of gives a thorough back with a mid century modern looks or just kind of like the modern art on, which I thought was really fun and new. Speaker 1: 28:49 It felt very fresh. Ooh. And then also seeing it as kind of this smart and fluid evolution from millennial pink, which has been so big over the last, you know, two to three years. Um, it makes it a very commercial choice as well, which we don't always see pantone making a commercial choice, but you can see it even in, you know, this rug or a pillow or dishes. Um, it's just, it seems like it's a very kind of easy color to incorporate with colors that people and consumers have already been buying over the last couple of years. Definitely. Um, it also looks great and an outdoor patio space. If you're, you know, not this bold inside, then your patio is a perfect place to kind of bring some personality and some pop in it. It's, I'm going really well Speaker 4: 29:42 with soft textiles. I like drapery as well. That gives your indoors a little bit of a pop if you're, um, feeling a little bit bold and want that bright coral color inside, uh, in the navy and indigo blues can a pair really well with the coral as do teals. Okay. Speaker 1: 29:59 And also I was noticing some exterior uses, um, bringing some vibrancy and some personality to the outside of that home. And again, it kind of depends on, I think where you live, where this would be suitable. But, um, even if you just painted your door a fun pop color. Yeah, that can be great. Yeah, that can be really fun. Okay, so to watch the full video, I'm going to leave or I'm linking this other video here so you can just click on that to watch the full video of living coral. Okay. So next I wanted to let you guys know about my trend guide for 2019 so I did a ton of trend research and I'll let you know kind of what I was finding in terms of colors and then we'll touch on a few other things. So this is my ultimate 2019 trend guide that I'm giving away for free. So you can download the pdf and I will link that in the description below, so be sure to check that out. Okay. So some of the color trends I've been finding for 2019 include this blush and forest green combination. And like I mentioned earlier, millennial pink has kind of been out and about for quite a while now, but we're kind of seeing these muted tones coming into the blushes and seeing it kind of contrasts really nicely with [inaudible] this, sorry. Um, is really beautiful. So that's in one color combinations. Speaker 3: 31:30 Sorry, I love this combination. This is, this is kind of, yeah, like a new look. Um, that I think is really pretty. I think, um, what I was seeing a lot of last year as the stationary show was um, sort of millennial pink and like cobalt and this is just kind of pushing it a little bit farther towards the, you know, obviously towards the green and then the pink is a little bit deeper and it's kind of again, like a nice evolution but really a unexpected. Speaker 1: 31:59 Right. And um, what was it two years ago that pantone is called the green? Um, it wasn't this crane but it was a green. So I think it kind of got everyone thinking about Greens a little bit more seriously because we didn't see, especially in home decor, we didn't see a lot of Greens. But also the house plant trend I think has kind of influenced us to think about yeah. Speaker 3: 32:18 And tropical, all that tropical patterning that we've been seeing for years. Speaker 1: 32:23 Yeah. So shades of green I think are definitely going to be here for a little while. Speaker 1: 32:29 Okay. So the next slide is hello yellow. So I'm a, I'm a lover of yellow anyway, but I was really excited to kind of see some different of yellow coming out, whether in clothing they, we have sort of some muted like butters and mustard colors, but also even in these hair trends you're seeing this like really, really bright fluorescent yellow almost, which was really fun. Yeah. So iridescent Schein is the next color trends. So this isn't exactly one color, but you're kind of this mother of Pearl. Look, we're seeing everywhere whether it's in these hair trends or um, and clothing or indifferent like kind of home decor accents. Um, Speaker 3: 33:14 it's really a hundred percent. And in the gifts in the gift market and stationary market, hologram foil is so huge like that. A couple of years ago that was like the new thing and it's still holding on like the metallics of like gold and silver and copper are still big, but the Hologram foil and that you a destined look is, is big in those markets. Speaker 1: 33:34 Oh, so fun. I love it. I feel like I've even seen it and I'm a silverware. Speaker 3: 33:40 Oh yeah, definitely. Yeah. I had a trend like this a couple of like a last year called oil slick and it was sort of the like rainbow effect on and the same thing. I had some silverware featured as well. Those sort of like a deeper version of this. But I'm similar. Speaker 1: 33:54 Yeah. Cool. I'm really pretty. Okay. So the next color trend is lavender loves. So again, I think that millennial pink has been so big for the last two to three years and this is sort of another evolution of the millennial pink. It's kind of the softer lavender's, um, and kind of soft purples. And again, last year was ultra violet for the 2018 color of the year. Now, this isn't ultra violet, but I do think it is a spin off of that to get people thinking again about purples. What purples are people excited about? What do they want to see on their clothes or their shoes or in home decor or in you know, stationery and gift. Um, so I think that these colors are a little bit softer and they're kind of easier to use. So here is millennial pink that we have been talking about that a lot and I don't think it's going anywhere quite yet. Again, we are kind of seeing these evolutions and kind of be spinoffs of millennial pink, but I think these colors also kind of playback and work well with millennial pink and I don't really think it's going away yet. Like I think that pink is still big, big, big. Yup. Speaker 3: 35:06 Agreed. And like now a hot pink is coming into, into play. I think after like award season, right. There was so many dresses out there. I don't really follow fashion too much and you have a lot of like fashion inspiration and home decor inspiration. Whereas my trend boards tend to be really like gift and stationary and a little bit of home decor. So that's kind of like my, my perspective on it. But I, um, from award season, I know that all the like dresses where this like hot pink Fuchsia. So that's, you know, another thing kind of mix in there. Speaker 1: 35:38 Cool. Yeah, I love seeing all the different shades of pink and I love the bright colors too. This is a little bit more soft and muted, but um, yeah, I think especially in home decor, we were seeing sort of the blushes come through a lot. But I'm hot pink. I love, so that's exciting. Okay. So pastel perfection. So I feel like pastels have been out for a few years. It's not like the most new thing, but I do think that some of these color combinations in the pastels are a little bit new and different. Um, so I was really loving just the softness of this and love seeing it. Also on kind of more winter items like this winter coat for example, or more long sleeve thinking. The pastels. Traditionally we, I guess we think of pastels as being associated with Easter time or spring. But yeah, seeing these pastels being applied and like totally different ways as exciting. Speaker 1: 36:37 So peach perfect is the next color trend. And I think that this is sort of related back to live in coral. It is a lot softer and more pastel. Again, I'm going to say it again, but I think it is related kind of to another evolution of the millennial pink seeing kind of what plays with that or how it could shift and change a little bit. But I think these soft peachy colors are just on point and I really love it. They play nicely with a lot of other colors. Okay. So the pink, green and gold is just another sort of color combination I was seeing over and over again. Yeah. Speaker 1: 37:18 And the, I called this royal blue sign because I felt like the cobalt blues, the Royal Blues, we're mixing really nicely and having that amazing contrast with these really bright sunshine colors, these yellow colors. And I feel like, yeah, we're seeing it in all different ways, whether it's in fashion or in an artwork or um, in these bottles or stoneware, whatever's at the bottom left. I can't remember exactly what that, what product that was. But yeah, I feel like we were just seeing it all over. It looks gorgeous. Yeah. Okay. And soft sage. I feel like what we were just talking about earlier with all the Greens, the house plant trends, um, the tropical trend and greenery being the 2017 pantone color of the year, it's just really gotten people thinking about Greens in a different way and really paying attention to Greens more. Um, so I was noticing this kind of soft sage trend come up all over the place, whether it's in house, how paints or sofas and home decor or fashion. Speaker 1: 38:25 Um, and just again with these, um, succulents, they kind of have that exact same color. So I agree. I have heard that stages is trending as well. And I feel like I haven't seen it as much in my work, but it's probably just a matter of time cause it's probably starting in fashion and home decor and that it's going to kind of filter in. Gotcha. Yeah, I think it feels really fresh. So I love it. But yeah. Okay. And so the next one is called spice turmeric earth. And I think this is just sort of a new, a new neutral if you will. I think that gray is starting to finally kind of make its way out and we're turning towards these really hot neutrals. Um, I don't really see the chocolates coming back in yet, but I think that's kind of where we're headed. But I think first it's going to be more of these kind of like spicy colors, um, that you would see in your kitchen. Um, but it is coming into fashion. I think first most of these images are fashion images. We kind of tried to play with this in home decor. I don't think they were quite ready yet because everyone's at this point bought a gray sofa. So it's not going to matter. Speaker 1: 39:39 But I do think this is where it's heading and you know, it's a great color for like leather furniture, things like that. So I think we are going to see it coming up more and more over the next few years. Okay. So you got all of my color trends, but I wanted to go over some of the other trends that I've included in my free trend guide. So I've included illustration trends that are not going to share with you. You'll have to go download the pdf in the description below to get these trends.

1 | LIVING CORAL EXPLAINED Unlike what many many initially think, no crystal balls are in use when Pantone selects the color of the year! They collect color information from street trends, fashion, retail, the runway, social media, and travel. Pantone carefully researches cultural shifts, political dynamics, and takes historical events into account. Groundbreaking stuff, huh? Vibrant yet mellow, Pantone describes Living Coral as “An animating and life-affirming coral hue with a golden undertone that energizes and enlivens with a softer edge.” It is a color that is warm and nourishing. “[Living Coral provides] comfort and buoyancy in our continually shifting environment.” Part of the reason they chose it is for its sociable and spirited qualities. It symbolizes optimism, the pursuit of joyful ventures, and encourages light-hearted activity. Pantone’s color choice in Living Coral directly relates to the “onslaught of digital technology and social media increasingly embedding into daily life…” This seems to be a recurring theme for Pantone, though not an irrelevant one. Living Coral embodies our need for playful expression. I see it as a very happy color. Do you agree with this? Pantone says, “Representing the fusion of modern life, PANTONE Living Coral is a nurturing color that appears in our natural surroundings…” I see it as a happy, beach-y color and it even reminds me of weddings, but I never associate this color with nature.  Pantone says that “Living Coral emits the desired, familiar, and energizing aspects of color found in nature.  In it’s glorious, yet unfortunately more elusive, display beneath the sea, this vivifying and effervescent color mesmerizes the eye and mind.” I guess that is technically nature. ;)    2 | HOW DOES LIVING CORAL INFLUENCE HOME DECOR IN 2019? My first slide with the oversized chairs shows how I would have traditionally imagined coral being used in the home. I see it being the perfect color for Southern Coastal homes. However, we are beginning to see it being used in fresh, modern ways. It still looks very sunny and cheerful. (See: Slide with coral, yellow, and green chairs.) I also see it as a smart, fluid evolution from Millennial Pink, which has been so popular over the last 2-3 years, which makes it a very commercial choice. It looks great in an Outdoor Patio space as well as soft textiles like drapery. The Navy or Indigo blues pair very well with coral. As do Teals. Exterior uses also look lovely, bringing vibrancy and personality to the outside of the home.    3 | CURRENT EVENTS THAT EVOKE THE COLOR LIVING CORAL Let’s recap some of the colossal current events that took place in 2017 and 2018.   IN 2017: President Trump was inaugurated Women’s March Jan 21, 2017 Brexit North Korea Escalation Self-Driving Cars Self-Learning A.I. Artificial Intelligence Las Vegas Shooting 58 dead 851 injured Wikipedia   IN 2018: International Women’s Day March for Our Lives Organized by survivors of the Parkland, Florida school shooting. Civic Engagement  Popularity in voting and importance of midterm elections. Lots of women were voted into Congress including the youngest woman ever to serve in Congress, the first Muslim women, and the first Native American women. The World Cup The Royal Wedding Nelson Mandela 100 July 18 marked 100 yrs since Nelson Mandela was born. Remembering: Aretha Franklin, Stephen Hawking, and Burt Reynolds.   IN POLITICS “Lying at the center of our naturally vivid and chromatic ecosystem, PANTONE Living Coral is evocative of how coral reefs provide shelter to a diverse kaleidoscope of color.” Do you think this is an echo of how the current u.s. administration has handled immigrants crossing the border? Erica Ilene did not think so. The terminology “provide shelter” really stuck out to me and it could mean a variety of things. Pantone chooses their words very carefully and I do think the concept of providing + seeking shelter is very important in our current events.   IN THE ENVIRONMENT is this color choice meant to call attention to coral reefs being endangered? National Geographic says that our Coral Reefs could be gone in 30 years.  A UN study found that unless global warming is reduced, coral reefs will die of heat stress. Reef expert, Mark Eakin, calls this catastrophe, “heartbreaking” as it’s already happening. According to National Geographic, 25 reefs (3/4 of the world’s reef systems) experienced severe bleaching events, the worst to date. Eakin says, “The Great Barrier Reef damage we’ve seen is greater than anything we’ve seen in the past 20 years.” And, “The last 3 years have been extremely depressing for me.” Source.   4 | HOW WILL SOCIAL MEDIA BE INFLUENCED BY CORAL IN 2019? There’s no doubt creates a liveliness that is very relevant and effective within social media realms. Do You See Living Coral As Being “Instagrammable?” If yes, leave me a comment at the bottom of this blog post and let me know! I’d love to see your screenshots and examples, too.   5 | HISTORY OF THE COLOR CORAL Coral reefs were first harvested for jewelry by the ancient Egyptians, and worn in Rome to ward off evil. Renaissance paintings of baby Jesus often depict him holding a coral amulet (assumed to also ward off evil). Before the 16th century, Chinese and Europeans would have labeled this color yellow-red.  Europeans learned the Sanskrit word ‘naranga' via trade in the late 15th century, which later became orange in English. By the mid-18th century, iron-oxide pigments could be mass produced for painting red, orange, and yellow shades. In 1840, the more chemically stable color, cadmium yellow, was created, followed by cadmium red in 1920 - both flooded the market while making the full range of orange hues possible for the very first time. Coral became a favorite among Impressionists and the rest is history. In the Victorian era, it was carved for cameo portraits. Coral was prized in sleek Art Deco jewelry during the first half of the 20th century. Hippies of the 1960’s and 1970’s treasured it’s raw form. Source.   6 | HOW YOUR PERSONALITY FEELS ABOUT THE COLOR CORAL   CORAL LOVERS So how do you feel about the color Living Coral, or coral in general?  (I am so-so on it.)   But I seem to do this every year where I'm a little resistant to Pantone's color choice and then as the year unfolds it starts to really grow on me.   Here are a few funny revelations about how your personality handles this lively color. Because Coral is a blend between Orange and Pink, we’ll have to draw some conclusions from both of these colors. A pink person is less ostentatious than a red person, but still has style and perspective.  In softer tints, it is pure, demure, and sweet.  If you love pink, you are generally talented, but not pushy or overly ambitious. Lovers of orange work and play hard, are expansive, extroverted, and have original ideas. They are good-natured, adventurous, and enthusiastic with strong determination. They are pretty agreeable and happy. Orange-lovers can be fickle.  Their newest friend is often their best friend until the next shiny new person comes along. Success in business can often come from this gregarious, charming person. Coral-lovers will find themselves in somewhere in the middle of the scale - perhaps loving to be social on the weekends, but preferring to stay in during the week.   CORAL HATERS If you hate pink, then it’s innocence is quite annoying to you.  You consider it weak.  Hot Pink is too showy for you and you’re just not a person with that much audacity who needs to be the center of attention.  You prefer sophisticated and friendly colors staying safe in the realm of neutrals and muted blues. If you hate orange, then nothing flamboyant appeals to you.  You are not a fan of partying, hilarity, loud people, showing off, or public displays of affection.  You may be a bit of a loner, although you prefer to have a few genuine friends and once you’ve made a friend, it’s for life.  You are very loyal and sincere. Coral-haters will find themselves in somewhere in the middle of the scale - perhaps you have some boldness inside of you when necessary, but you prefer to keep it reserved for extremely important situations.  Maybe you enjoy a nice party from time-to-time, but you would never host a large party yourself. Source: Colors for Your Every Mood, by Leatrice Eiseman, 1998.   5 | HOW LIVING CORAL CAN AFFECT YOUR BUSINESS IN 2019 Before you get totally carried away on the Coral train you have to know your customers and your brand. Is coral relevant to your target audience and does it make sense with what you’re ultimately selling? For example, I highly doubt Ford is going to come out with new coral sedans next year. However, see if you can work it into your existing assortment or product offering. If you are selling gifts or accessories this is an amazing accent color! See if you can use it as a pop color on a small detail. The exact shade of coral can be flexible. Perhaps, you want a dull version of coral which suits your customers better. This could work well for textiles and home decor products such as rugs and pillows. Coral can also be a great shade for marketing and advertisements. It is easy to incorporate into your social media strategy. And if you can’t physically incorporate coral tones into your business, you can always develop into the overall meaning behind Living Coral by bringing a sense of environmental consciousness to your business messaging.   TAGS Living Coral Living Coral 2019 2019 Pantone Color of the Year 2019 Pantone Color Living Coral Pantone Living Coral Pantone 2019 Living Coral Pantone Color of the Year Living Coral Pantone Color of the Year 2019 Pantone Color Living Coral Pantone Color of the Year Make Up Living Coral Pantone Color of the Year Nail Polish Living Coral Pantone Color of the Year Fashion Lauren Lesley Studio Design Tribe Living Color Coral color of the year 2019 pantone 2019 color of the year pantone Color of the Year

For our first podcast of 2019, I sit down with Cindy, Chivonne and Emma of SORA Interiors, which is the sister design office to CHT Architects, hence the name Sora which in Latin means 'sister.' The trio discuss the challenges and opportunities of becoming a standalone office such as fielding an Archisoccer team that is performing better than your parent office, in addition to some of the types of projects they are currently working on. The PANTONE Color of the Year for 2019 also rates a mention. That's Living Coral (PANTONE 16-1546) for those of you playing at home.

In 2000, at the age of 40, Marina Gelman lost her college-aged daughter in a tragic car accident. At the time, Gelman was a new fitness enthusiast and avid runner. Overcome by grief after the accident, however, she holed herself up for almost two years and focused only on work to numb the pain. Unfortunately, during this time, she abandoned her fitness goals, started smoking again after a long hiatus, and put on weight; reaching over 200 pounds. Ironically, it was another tragedy a short time later, the death of her Father from a heart attack, that inspired her to start training again. As it turns out, training non-stop turned out to be a blessing and a curse. Yes, she lost weight and found relief from her stress and heartache, but she was also overtraining…severely. Marina eventually succumbed to the devastating effects of chronic fatigue. Even the simple act of walking up a flight of stairs became unbearable.  In 2012, after hearing about Matt Dixon and Purple Patch from her running club, she reached out. At the time, she was 240 pounds, her heaviest. She explained to Matt that she had only two small goals: Recover from her chronic fatigue Run three miles again. That’s it. Matt set her sights higher. Not only did he give her hope, but he also gave her a long-term structured plan and a wonderful community of support. Today, Marina Gelman is a Half-Ironman finisher, with her hopes set on finishing a full Ironman in the near future. She has also lost 105 pounds and trains daily, fully recovered from chronic fatigue.   This is a story of hope and promise. Adopting an athletic mindset, regardless of where you find yourself, just may be the one spark to save your life. “Losing a child is something unimaginable to go through,” says Marina. “Sport, in a way, and running saved me from sadness for the rest of my life.”   Attention Purple Patch Athletes and Fans: We are so excited to offer our new kits with our brand new logo!  Order today as the last day to order is April 6th, 2018.  We will NOT be offering another time to order.   We worked with NYC designer and triathlete, Cesar Villalba, to bring these super sharp Wattie Ink kits to you.  The purple is the Pantone Color of the Year and is deep and rich in person.

This week Michelle wants to know how creatives can tackle their fears and if you wait until the very end of the podcast you'll hear a bit about the Pantone Color of the Year 2018! Brandi's song this week: POWERS - Georgie Justin TImberlake - Blue Ocean Floor 27:10  Creatives deal with fear a lot. What are some ways we can approach overcoming our fears? You don't ever really "tackle your fears", you just accept them and do the thing anyway knowing you're afraid If we focus too much on failure we start to believe we are failures Failure is totally subjective Blog Post on Creative Courage SeanWes "Failure is not the end. It doesn't mean that it's over, it just means that you get to continue with experience." Fear can be controlled "Whatever you believe, you are." (Thank you Boss Baby, haha)   IMPORTANT!!!!!
