Pantone Has Predicted Next Spring’s Hot Hues, and Houston Boutiques Are Getting Colorful!

A versatile tank from French Cuff Boutique

THE PANTONE COLOR Institute, the trend-forecasting and color consultancy, revealed its spring 2022 color predictions during the first in-real-life New York Fashion Week shows since the pandemic hit. The range of 10 bold colors and five soft neutral shades "bring together our competing desires for comforting familiarity and joyful adventure through a range of soothing and timeless colors, along with joyous hues that celebrate playfulness," a Pantone exec said in a statement. This week, be inspired by the "in" colors!

PANTONE 14-0850, "Daffodil" Yellow is joyful and makes you smile. This versatile tank can be worn three ways: Channel the '70s with a tie close to the neck, wear it loose or completely untied. $25 (was $75!), frenchcuffco.com

PANTONE 18-3324, "Dahlia" You have our permission to use this tote for your 9-5 and on the weekend at the beach. Tailored from a hand-loomed dhurrie rug, the stand-out purple hue can be found at AG Antiques in The Heights or in Rice Village at The Hive, A Pop Up Collective. $225, sapanadreams.com

PANTONE 18-1564, "Poinciana" The Corazones drop earrings from this Latina-owned accessories boutique are so popular and always sold out. They're restocked so now is your chance to add this commanding red color to your jewelry collection. $18, etsy.com/shop/AccesoriosIxchel

PANTONE 18-4728, "Harbor Blue" "Reflecting our longing for a safe space," per Pantone, Harbor Blue is a mid-toned, vibrant color.

A moment from 'The House,' choreographed by Nao Kusuzaki

WALKING THE GROUNDS of the Heights Ironworks is like stepping back in time, making it the ideal location for choreographer and former Houston Ballet soloist Nao Kusuzaki’s immersive dance performance, The House. Created for Houston Contemporary Dance Company and running Feb. 8-10 (5pm, 7pm and 9pm), The House explores the groundbreaking accomplishments of Barbara Jordan, the first African American elected to the Texas Senate after Reconstruction, and Harper Lee, author of To Kill a Mockingbird. Although Jordan and Lee’s paths never crossed, Kusuzaki imagines them as guests at the Yale House, a five-room historic landmark built in 1903.
