There is no shortage of color for the Spring/Summer season of 2008. The trend for blue has been slowly growing and this season we can say Blue is Back and with a vengeance. Manufacturers are working to produce a wide range of attractive tones for the 2008 Spring/Summer season. Royal blue will be there show casing it’s brilliance on jackets and parkas. Of course denim is always fashionable. If blue is not your favorite hue, a blue chambray shirt is a must have for Spring Summer 2008.

Spring 2008 continues last autumn’s theme of lilac, magenta and purple puce. The purple mauve tones have been a very strong fashion color trend since 2007, and now there is a tonal merge with orchid lilac to bluebell. Frequently the purple color group is set against the hot pinks, cerise and softer pink orchid tones

Spring has a great color palette with pinks frequently mixing with other bold brights. Designers have used pink next to orange, coral, rose amethyst, purple and surprisingly, lemon yellow or green. Tie dye and painted fabrics are all the rage for Summer 2008. Merged dye colors easily create fantastic color schemes, which are often enhanced with painted watercolor effects. All the warm colors show their lively brilliance, from coral to soft peachy watermelon. By Fall, burnt tangerine will emerge from the soft and delicate peach tone offered this spring.

Like it or not yellow is sneaking back into the color palette for Spring Summer 2008. Yellow is a tone you either love or hate. I feel that if you are fair you will love lemon and yellow. The lemon yellow tones are mingling too with mustard, olive and khaki greens. Think of the mixed citrus skin on a lemon that veers toward lime. This is the yellow green color palette.

Tribal fabrics are often brown based, but with jolts of added color for bands and straps. Creamy coffee, taupe, silver gray and mole mixtures work well in tribal mixes especially when teamed with bold trims of red or yellow, bringing sunny heat to the latest 2008 print fabric designs.

These coffee cream colors easily blend with the dusty and subtle orchid pinks of the spring summer 2008 fashion color palette. This is the neutral, grays, creams, and coffee tone palette.

Black and White Monochrome Options is a continuing strong trend. And guess what? Beads come in so many shapes and sizes and all of these color palettes. You can design and make your jewelry to coordinate with the latest fashion color trends. HAPPY BEADING
