Spring 2011 jewelry trends - color Honeysuckle
According to Pantone, “Honeysuckle is encouraging and uplifting. It elevates our psyche beyond escape, instilling the confidence, courage and spirit to meet the exhaustive challenges that have become part of everyday life.”
Honeysuckle is likely to be the seen-everywhere color in 2011. So you may want to include it in the color schemes of your jewelry lines.
However, remember that people will also need jewelry in other colors that accent all the cheery reddish-pink clothing that’s likely to be popular in Spring and Summer 2011.
Also, here’s a sample of the 10 colors in Pantone’s color palette for Spring 2011:

Cate Adair about the inspiration for setting fashion colours -
Costume Designer, Desperate Housewives
"It's not any single geographical location. In fact, it isn't a place that you can go to. Or come from. Or even be in. Rather, it's a place that is deep inside each and every person, a place that provides the pulse of our time – the human heart. For where the heart is, there is hope. And in today's difficult world, hope more than ever is the fuel we must burn to carry on. And more than any city or landscape or physical surroundings could do, hope still moves us to create beautiful things, even in the face of adversity.
Spring 2011 fashion will be marked by soft, fluid and romantic accents. Not to recall a bygone era (even though we all take comfort in old treasures and what we perceive perhaps as more authentic times), but to speak to a hopeful future. A future full of the promise that all will be well, if we only seek out the real, simple things in life. And the color palette of clear, strong pastels mixed with soft, weathered hues and dappled, filtered shades blushed with light all combine to create a mood that is honest, clean, bright and, above all, optimistic."
