Mauve Makes a Comeback

The Return of the "M" Word - It's mauve. Remember mauve? An old color that looks new again, in dusty violet shades, mauve works as an accent but also serves now as a neutral, punched up by those bright Asian accents (orange, turquoise, teal, red, and yellow.)
The Chocolate/Pink Mod Squares container by Boxco, although certainly in the pink, suggests the rosy return of mauve is making headway.
According to Color Marketing Group, the top color choices for 2009 have been influenced by both our concern for the economy and our optimism about the future. CMG predicts more evolution than revolution in color trends for the coming new season.
"We're finding comfort in colors that are familiar, and yet, at the same time, we're embracing colors that make us happy -- especially as accents," said executive director, Jaime Stephens.
