For Those Who Haven't Been Feeling the Latest Color Trends: Fall 2012

Claudia

Fall color trends are deeper, inky and muted tones: eggplant, very deep teal, mustard yellow, rusted red, soft peach, burnt orange.

Cobalt and a saturated turquoise are still strong.

I love the teal, cobalt, cerulean, red and eggplant! These colors look good on me. I absolutely can't do orange, peach or mustard though. I look sickly in those colors.

I've enjoyed the brights of recent months but I love all of these - except for the cobalt.

I love those colors, although I'm still looking forward to summer and the brights, since we haven't gotten into it in full swing yet.

I love the summer brights but I will happily wear the eggplant and royal when fall arrives

Ay! I'm in big trouble this year because I love all the colors. I'm currently loving all the orange/coral...and now you show me these great colors for fall 2012. LOVE deep teal, rusted red, burnt orange, and eggplant.

So much for SYC...haha!

Yummy colors. Many of these are already in my closet, particularly the teal/cerulean and the eggplant. What I plan to change are my base neutrals. I'm relying too much on black and grey.

These look a little easier for me too, though I have to say this summer's brights may have been just the jolt colourphobic me needed to stretch my horizons a little!

Ooh, what a relief. I love these rich, warm colors! I'm ready for a shift away from brights. I guess my color love affair was short lived!

Oooh! I like brights a lot but these deep, rich, saturated autumn/winter colors are my favoites. You know I am obsessed with eggplant right now, and deep teal is my One True Love.

I love these fall variations (except peach) and eggplant and teal and turquoise are my go tos whenever those are offered. I should stock up when I see them! Was hoping to add more cobalt and reintroduce red soon.
I keep looking at mustard as color to bonce off cobalt and teal but don't really have any (except one gear tank) so should try some on to see if it looks awful (like peach) on me.

I am surprised not to see a true green but I guess that was Pantone's last year shade.

Burnt orange and primrose yellow are right up my alley. Yay cerulean!

These are beautiful autumn hues. I don't care for them on myself, but I'll enjoy watching you all rock them. At least the typical colors of summer work for me, since it's my dominant season. I'll just rely more on neutrals this fall and winter. This makes my want to keep buying like crazy while my colors are available: Oh, no! Winter is coming.....in like about 6 months! Seriously though I shop so much in thrift stores so I can find the off-trend colors pretty easily.

The fall colours look vibrant. People in the UK are starting to wear the autumn colours. I must say that autumn stock started appearing in the shops in July.

I'm good with everything but peach! I need an off-season so I can get a break from colors I love (never thought I'd say that but I'm going to go broke!). Venetian red? Royal blue? Yeah!

Love the blues especially (or maybe they love me). Do you find these colors do really magically appear in stores? Which stores do you see this most clearly? Just wondering.
