According to Pantone Tangerine Tango is the color of 2012. 

I do believe that tangerine tango is a great color on almost everyone.  It is more of a reddish orange rather than a yellow warmer orange.

If you feel that the color is too overwhelming to wear alone you can use tangerine tango accessories  to make your outfits pop.  Looks great with Navy Blue, Steel Gray and if you are really daring you can go with an emerald green.

“Color is really emotion,” agreed Beth Eckerstrom, director of trend and product development at Crate and Barrel. “Everyone thinks it’s a physical thing, but it’s really emotion.”

About the PANTONE Color of the Year
The color of the year selection is a very thoughtful process. To arrive at the selection, Pantone quite literally combs the world looking for color influences. This can include the entertainment industry and films that are in production, traveling art collections, hot new artists, popular travel destinations and other socio-economic conditions. Influences may also stem from technology, availability of new textures and effects that impact color, and even upcoming sports events that capture worldwide attention.

For more than a decade, Pantone’s Color of the Year has influenced product development and purchasing decisions in multiple industries, including fashion, home and industrial design, as well as product packaging and graphic design.
