And the winner is . . .

It's official: Pantone, the color authority, announced the Color of the Year for 2009. And it just happens to be one of my wedding colors [most likely, but not officially yet].

I just love that mustard yellow. So cheery, warm and vintage! From today's Pantone press release courtesy Apartment Therapy: "Mimosa, a warm engaging yellow, brings hope and optimism during a time of economic uncertainty and political change. Inspired by the Mimosa tree and the sparkle of the renowned cocktail, the 2009 color of the year represents the hopeful and radiant characteristics associated with the color yellow."

Now pair it up with an ash gray to create this hip and modern combination.

And that's a winning color combo!
