Color is everywhere you look, especially in nature! It’s the bright green of a tree-frog, or the light blue of a clear sky, and even the neon yellow of a lightning bolt! Seeing these colors on your favorite fashions can bring you back to lounging in a field of dandelions or that adventurous trip to the Grand Canyon. The third and fourth colors featured on Pantone’s Fall 2013 Color Report are inspired by nature… carafe and turbulence!

In the above set, I featured a look which incorporates both carafe and turbulence. Both of these colors can be found in nature, inspired by coffee beans and boulders. For the look, I featured a turbulence check peplum top paired with a light grey textured pencil skirt and a carafe Ralph Lauren wool blazer. I love this look because although it’s an all neutral color palette, it’s still exciting and appealing. I accessorized with carafe peep-toe ankle booties and a turbulence Valentino bow satchel. The ankle booties are really cool because they’re inspired by riding boots, which ties in with our nature color inspiration. For jewelry, I chose crystal lace collar statement necklace and diamond drop earrings from Barney’s.

Do you love carafe and turbulence? How would you style them?
