Did you hear? Recently, Pantone announced its spring 2014 color and PPG picked its fav for the entire year. First Pantone’s pick: Dazzling Blue, which is described as

a “peppy shade of cobalt.”

The word Pantone appears in white text in a black box on a blue background.Material Girls Blog

As for PPG, they picked pale yellow for 2014. The example they use from their color deck is Turning Oakleaf:

Calming after a busy day, this color can go just about anywhere. From kitchen to bedroom . . .
