No need to walk down any yellow brick roads—in 2013, every city is an emerald city! The Pantone Color Institute annually scours the world for inspiration in order to bring us their official color of the year and in 2013 it’s bright, flattering emerald. A rich color that inspires insight and promotes balance and harmony, Lee Eiseman, Executive Director at Pantone, says this color is appropriate for 2013 because it promotes change, renewal, and clarity in a complex world, but we love it for its style cred! Celebs from Kate Middleton to Kristin Wiig have already been spotted in this bright jeweltone, and our host Jessica Stam has all the best (and affordable) emerald picks for your closet this year!
