EMERALD: Pantone Color of the Year 2013

My fave color is green apart from orange and red and now that emerald green is the color for next year, I might have to bring out and use my green shirts and other stuff more often than usual. We'll be saying goodbye to Tangerine Tango (color of year for 2012) soon but a nice lively and vibrant color will enter.

Emerald, a vivid, verdant green, enhances our sense of well-being further by inspiring insight, as well as promoting balance and harmony.
