Further to our thoughts about tangerine, this notoriously difficult color to wear actually works very well as an accent color, especially when paired with a neutral hue such as grey or tan or olive. Then the color really pops without becoming too cartoonish or overwhelming. As such, jewelry and accessories in tangerine tones then becomes a great merchandise to carry to complement this trend. Sasi Bon offers some great tangerine accent pieces which is just tart enough for the fashionable woman who does not want to look too fruity!
Back in January, Pantone declared that Tangerine Tango was the Color of the Year for 2012. Personally, we did not think Tangerine made a big impact this year as Honeysuckle did last year. Perhaps this is only the cusp of the trend and we will see more demand for tangerine from consumers of fashion in spring or summer of 2013. But fashion is so individual; if we were to see everyone offering tangerine, it would be terribly dull. Other tints also complement orange, like sea green, lavender, and even sky blue, so there is more than enough room for other hues on the color wheel.

We love this Spring/Summer 2013 collection from the trend-setting Alexander McQueen label, and it was obviously inspired by bees and beekeepers. Gold and black and yellow tones are the dominant color themes. Here is some Sasi Bon jewelry which would go great with this buzzing new collection; our black agate and citrine collection is right on the honey- I mean, money.
