Goodbye Honeysuckle Yellow, hello Tangerine Tango, or you may prefer to call it 17-1463, announced as Pantone’s color of the year for 2012.

According to Pantone, “Tangerine Tango marries the vivaciousness and adrenaline rush of red with the friendliness and warmth of yellow, to form a high-visibility, magnetic hue that emanates heat and energy.”

It is a color, Pantone goes on to say, that is “a bit exotic, but in a very friendly, non-threatening way”.

There are so many gorgeous colour combinations possible here – you can really let your imagination run wild.
