Coral

A soft, bright pink with just a hint of orange, coral is named after the beautiful marine creatures that share its color. The orange undertones evoke joyous energy while the muted quality of pink provides the essence of tropical locales. While this shade is a natural choice for a flowing sundress or a vacation-ready swimsuit, stay on trend by using it in unexpected ways. Think a tailored blazer, chunky athleisure-inspired sneakers, or form-fitting skinny jeans. This optimistic hue will also be a favorite for lips and nails. Welcome guests to your home with a wash of warm coral in your entryway. Soft turquoise is its complementary color, so pairing these shades brings out the best in both. Add clean white trim and accents for a beach house-inspired look. Try this shade of pink with lavender as an unexpected palette for your bathroom for pastels that look modern, rather than stodgy. In a departure from the standard pale pink and baby blue, coral can also create a contemporary nursery for your new little one.
