Ultraviolet
For many, the famous Pantone color of the year sets the tone for fashion and design all year long. This year's hue is Ultraviolet and we're seeing it in everything from drapes to furniture to runway fashion.
Pastels
Often called "Ice Cream colors" pastels are making a comeback, as are many things 80s. Light oranges, blues, pinks, purples and yellows are all in for interior decor in 2018. Use them in everything from furniture to towels, bedding to accent cushions. If it looks "sorbet" go for it. Check out more.
Ombre
Ombre uses hues of the same color to create a monochromatic fade effect, from darker to lighter or vice versa. While 2018 is seeing this largely in hair and nail trends, it also applies to decor, blankets, bedding, wallpaper and paint styles. Read more.
Geometry
You may have hated geometry in math class, but you'll love its place in design for 2018. In everything from wallpaper to bathroom tile, curtains to fashion, geometric patterns are force this year. Learn more.
Going Green
This green is both stylish and eco-friendly. While greenery was Pantone's color of 2017, this year's green trend is vegetation, literally. And by the looks of things, you can't overdo it. Pick up some big, bushy plants, ferns, ivy, spider plants, and more, and let em hang. Mirror this in furniture, accents, throw cushions, and wall art. Just be to keep up on the watering for this design trend.
