January colours

Orange colour has been popping up all over.  I keep finding orange shoes and clothes, orange colour for make up and accessories and orange accents in design and decor.  And if you are wondering why there is so much orange around, the answer is simple - PANTONE named Tangerine Tango to be the colour of the year.  So after last year's honeysuckle (pink) we'll have an explosion of orange in 2012.
