Every year Pantone  the colour company releases their “Color of the Year,” after studying and analyzing trends online and offline. This year pantone has selected ‘marsala’ as the color of the year. Pantone describes this colour as an “earthy wine red” .

Now if you are wondering if Marsala is even a name of a colour? Well actually no, Pantone has actually named this deep Earthy red colour as marsala after fortified wine.Pantone Feels Marsala is a natural fit for the kitchen and dining room – making it ideal for tabletop, small appliances and linens throughout the home. They also say that this stylish tone is universally appealing and translates easily to fashion, beauty, industrial design, home furnishings and interiors.

I have been following the Pantone colour of the year trends for past two years. In 2013 it was Emerald and in 2014 it was Radiant Orchid. I loved both these colours but this years colour is so not my Thing. I like it all girly and fun and marsala is too dark for my liking.

Marsala in beauty as a lipstick or shadow is definitely out of question for me . But talk fashion , accessories and clothing , well for that iam set to rock the earthy red. Marsala is esecially a great warm colour for the winters.

But bollywood is loving this earthy red for a lip colour. I have spotted Deepika Padukone , sonam and even Jacqueline do the bold lip more than once off late.

Celebs have also been seen in Marsala outfits and this sure is the colour to rock this year.
