I'm stressed. You're stressed. We've all had it with 2020 and everything that has come along with it. Hopefully, you've developed some relaxation techniques by now, which might involve calming beauty products or a little something extra in your coffee. From a fashion perspective, wearing cozy pajamas isn't the only way to get zen. Have you ever thought of strategically choosing relaxing colors to wear? Well, I tapped a certified expert to offer an expert opinion on the subject.
In my interview with Pantone Color Institute's Executive Director, Leatrice Eiseman, she suggested five soothing colors to wear when you're stressed. Scroll down to find out which specific hues made her list and browse my shopping picks for each color.
1. Light Buttery Yellow
"A subtle yellowish off-white, Pantone 12-0713 imparts a smooth, mellow demeanor."
2. Menthol Green
"Pantone 13-0117A is a mentholated green that cools and soothes," Eiseman said.
Something to look forward to.
3. Cerulean Blue
"Pantone 15-4020, reminds us of the color of the sky on a serene, crystal clear day," Eiseman toldBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing .
These pajamas have rave reviews onReplica Store because they're so comfy.
4. Dusty Pink
"Pantone 16-1511 is a gentle dusky pink that exudes a sense of composure," Eiseman told us.
In case you watch to switch out your black leggings every once in a while.
5. Ultramarine Green
"Pantone 18-5338 is a deep, calming blue-green that restores poise and self-assurance."
In case you're looking for a new designer investment, you can't go wrong with this looker.
This deep forest green hue is almost black but will show its true colors in the sunlight.
Next, Katie Holmes wore controversial drop-crotch jeans and pulled them off like a pro.
Erin got her start as aBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
