Tangerine
Marc by Marc Jacobs, Vivienne Tam and Jennie Packham Spring 2012 RTW
Pantone named tangerine the color of 2012, so get ready to see this bright hue everywhere this spring. Tangerine is a highly-saturated orange with a reddish undertone, which makes it a flattering shade on most skin tones. Once the warm weather hits, try wearing a bold dress, top or bikini in this shade. However, if you’re feeling a little color shy, start small by rocking a tangerine mani or accessory.

Mint
Chanel, Vera Wang and Rodarte Spring 2012 RTW
Pastel colors are going to be big in general this season, but mint is the trendiest hue of the bunch. This frosty shade is a lovely mix between blue and green and gives off a light, airy vibe. Mint pairs well with many colors, but we especially love how it looks with yellow, pink and teal. Mix and match a mint-colored item with one of those shades for a gorgeous and spring-appropriate look.Get the Look:

Kelly Green
Jo No Fui, Diane von Furstenberg and Akris Spring 2012 RTW
We’ve been lusting after this color ever since Emily Blunt rocked a kelly green frock at the SAG Awards a few weeks back, so we’re ecstatic it’ll be über-popular for spring. This bright green shade is definitely a head-turner and we can’t wait to wear kelly green shorts, sundresses and sandals throughout spring and summer.
