The rays of the sun are soon to shine.   The bronze tones are soon to appear on the skin.  And most importantly, the fabulous colors of the year, and more specifically of the season, are coming into play when accessorizing our wardrobes for spring of 2012.  Tangerine Tango has been selected as Pantone’s hottest color for spring of 2012.  When viewing the color palette on pantone.com, it is not your archetypal tangy orange color you’d imagine, I would go as far as categorizing it closer to a coral color tone. 

This spring, pair Aurelie Bidermann’s Enamel Choker Necklace, priced at $3,365, with a simple, white classic day dress.  You can’t go wrong with this vibrant color.  This unique piece is modestly deeper toned than Pantone’s more muted ‘Tangerine Tango,’ yet still lies in the shade’s vicinity and spring’s prevailing style.

Another adored piece I marvel at is this very natural looking Jasper Necklace, at a budget-friendly $395.  The stone motif also resembles that of the coral motif in the previous jewelry piece, emanating that outdoor, beachy feel.  While the description says "pink" it looks to be a more muted orange. These patterns and color combinations are the hottest jewelry trends we will see ubiquitously in spring of 2012!

I found this atypical Marc by Marc Jacobs Star-Sliced Bangle to be drool-worthy.  Paired with a more edgy ensemble, maybe a black sweater dress, tights, and a pair of black leather boots, this piece price is quite easy on the pocket at $48. 

Just as the sun continues to shine each spring, so do the warm tones in our wardrobes and accessories. Do you have a favorite piece of jewelry in your closet in the Tangerine Tango shade?  Or do you have a substitute spring favorite color for 2012? Let us know at @PierceMattiePR.
