About Gabrielle Johnson
When shopping finally becomes an Olympic event, editor Gabrielle Johnson is pretty sure she’ll take home the gold medal for Canada – after inquiring about the availability of other colours (lilac? chartreuse?) and politely requesting a discount. Every week, she shares a glimpse into what’s on her style radar.
When Pantone named Tangerine Tango its Colour of the Year for 2012 earlier this week, I was instantly smitten with the chic, juicy reddish-orange shade. I love how bright and sexy it is, and how fabulous it looks paired with neutrals (or royal blue if you're feeling bold).
Because I haven't been able to get the fiery hue out of my head since Monday's announcement, I decided to get a jump on the new year by tracking down 15 Tangerine Tango-inspired fashion and beauty finds:
