Pantone 2011 Color of the Year

Have you heard, the 2011 color of the year is Honeysuckle!?

This week Social Work Couture brings you a week of ways to incorporate honeysuckle into your wardrobe and home!

I'll admit that I just learned about this color of the year business, but turns out this stuff is for real, based on how much I'm seeing it in stores!

P.S. In case you were wondering, the color last year was turquoise!
