Match Maker Series: Aurora

In honor of the first week of sunny days this year, today's select color for the Match Maker series is the Pantone Spring/Summer 2010 color Aurora. This season, bright yellow is best matched with equally happy colors. Some would contrast it with darker hues in colder tones set in gold, which would also work nicely. Deep purples or rich dark blues would certainly suffice and give any outfit of yellow a serious, harder look. But we're moving into the season of fun in the sun, so contrasts should be bright and fun.


A fun contrast is JewelMak's magnesite turquoise necklace pictured above. It's much like wearing a print. Against the bright yellow, this necklace definitely pops.

Of course not everyone wears yellow so boldly. You may wear prints featuring yellow. In that case, there's nothing wrong with being monochromatic either.


These hoop earrings from JewelMak's "Eclipse" collection have a texture that gives them a subtle statement. The light gemstones set within the gold overlay keeps the look light.

Spring/Summer colors of 2010

It's March already and this oddly warm weather is just going to get warmer. So let's get our summer wardrobe ready with Pantone's fashion color report for Spring/Summer 2010.


As you can see, this season's palette is generally very earthy with a few pops of brights. Which works perfectly for using jewelry accents. One can make a light summer outfit pop with large gemstone earrings or a stack of colored agate bracelets.

Wearing bright colors can be intimidating, but the summer is a perfect time for trying out new colors. If a red agate is too loud for you, start with a pair of soft turquoise drops or even a sweet coral necklace. Layering many small chains and necklaces also allows you to create a bold statement with subtle elements that will keep you in your comfort zone.
