I found some Very Peri for your wardrobe

Ever since Pantone announced Very Peri as the Color of the Year for 2022, many of you have expressed enthusiasm for adding it to your wardrobe. This is a great color for you Summers, though some Winters may find the “icier” versions work for them.

It’s been my experience that Pantone’s designated colors for any season don’t necessarily translate to what’s available on the racks. But I am starting to see versions of this color bubble up as spring collections come in.

Very Peri

Most of what I’m seeing that’s close to Very Peri is a softer, less saturated version of it, in a range of shades between lavender and blue.

Soft peach

Though not on Pantone’s list of colors, I’ve been noticing lots of peachy shades in the mix for spring. Great for us with warmer palettes!

J.Crew just introduced a new version of their popular sweater blazer. This one has a one-button closure and I’m intrigued with this light apricot-peach color. (I have this on order, and am hoping the color is really as it looks here.)

Here’s another gorgeous peachy sweater. This one is a cotton/Lyocell blend, so wool-free. Available in XX-Small to X-Large.

A lightweight quilted jacket has been a real workhorse in my wardrobe. Here’s one in a pretty peachy pink, available in Misses, Petite, and Plus sizes.

What do you think of these colors? Would you wear either of them?
