I like almost all of these colors quite a bit, so I'm happy. I have been seeing some of these colors in stores already. That last pinky/purply color throws me. It just doesn't seem to go with the rest.

Thanks for the link. It is always interesting to see what colors Pantone has selected for the season... but I rarely see their picks reflected in the merchandise sold by our local retailers. I am personally loving the Aurora Red, Spicy Mustard, Lush Meadow and Potter's Clay shades.

Ooh, love that spicy mustard. Nice blues, too.

The last one is called "Bodacious" -- gotta love a color with that name!

This is like the entire color scheme of my house. Except that last purple one. I'm not there yet.

Loving the dusty cedar....not sure about the spicy mustard! The palette reminds me of the 70s for some reason!

I've always enjoyed seeing the colors of the season. I really like Riverside. I will certainly be incorporating that color into my Fall/Winter color palette.

love the sharkskin (gray) and the Bodacious. Actually they are all quite nice but those two are my favorites

I like the Spicy Mustard, Bodacious, and the Lush Meadow green. The sharkskin is a nice neutral. The others are a bit too muddy/earthy for me.

These include some really good colors for me and some not so good. I can definitely do the blue shades, the gray, the purple and dusty pink shades. I currently have a lot of the blue and gray but not the purple (bodacious) or pink (dusty cedar) but would be willing to think about adding something in one of those colors. Aura red, lush meadow and potters clay are a maybe depending on the undertone. Warm taupe and spicy mustard are a no for me unless I'm just seeing the colors wrong on my screen.

I like all the cool colors: Riverside, Airy Blue, Sharkskin, Lush Meadow and Bodacious, as well as Warm Taupe if it is less warm. My absolute favorites are the Airy Blue and Bodacious and hope to wear a lot of both.

Love the blues, gray and taupe with a bit of dusty cedar.

I'm trying to get more blue and gray into my fall/winter wardrobe in lieu of all the black I gravitate to.

Club Monaco has been adding items in a colour they call "rouge". It looks like it could be dusty cedar like but I haven't seen it in person yet.....it may be more reddish.

All of the colors feel too soft and dusky for my liking. Of all of them, I might consider Bodacious (I'm a purple girl at heart) and maybe Lush Meadow.. The colors also look a bit dated to me. Maybe I"m just stuck in my own little bubble though.

I like the spiciness of Aurora Red and Potter's Clay, and the forest-like quality of Lush Meadow.

The two blues, sharkskin and audacious bodacious will work for me.

The colors seem a little dusty? for me, but some of them look more saturated in the clothing examples. I like the green clothing, for example.

I have and will add more airy blue and lush meadow if the opportunity arises.

I like the airy blue. It's close to a shade of blue that makes my eyes pop. The dusty cedar is appealing, too.

I like the palette; reads more fall than winter though these colors could easily be taken into winter, too. Similar to colors I already wear though I opt for the saturated versions of all of them. The two blues strike me as faded denim which is exactly how I wear those shades. And I do prefer a lighter shade of gray but I like the clear tone of what they're showing.

Airy blue has the word Serene in the description! Should be perfect for me. I like lush meadow, it reminds me of my Jason Wu dress. Riverside is okay. Sharkskin is a more vibrant bluish grey IMO, and I like it. I also like the warm taupe. I could make an entire wardrobe out of these colors! Oh, I already did! kind of!

Fun to see...

I don't really dress according to season (fall and spring can often be the same colours/wardrobe for me), and I try not to choose colours according to fashion - but am limited by what is available in the stores of course.

I do like the slighty "off/muddy" tones in some of these colours..

Bodacious. What is not to love?

They are growing on me. My phone has finally calmed down and allowed me to read the whole report (it's ghosting). They strike me as early harvest colours, but that IS fall, so... Anyways, they are growing on me because they're quite different from the usual suspects...
