5 Ways To Wear "Very Peri," Pantone's 2022 Color of the Year

Pantone has announced "Very Peri" as 2022's Color of the Year. A periwinkle, purple tone, the shade is described to be the "happiest and warmest of all the blue hues." As we prepare to ring in the new year, we've put together five ways to wear the new trending color.

For those who usually opt for neutral, muted palettes, an easy way to introduce "Very Peri" to your wardrobe is to style with black or white items. For a fun, casual look, you can also pair the color with pastel yellow. Elsewhere, we're playing around with different textures and finishes including sparkly sequins and faux fur.

If you're someone who doesn't experiment much with color, simply pair your purple item with black. Here, we're styling Gimaguas' Mariona Top with Proenza Schouler's straight-legged leather pants. Add an extra pop of color with Amina Muaddi's lilac slippers, and finish off the look with YUNSÉ's crossbody bag, a pair of golden earrings and chic sunglasses.
