Color trends Fall/Winter 2025/2026

 Welcome!

I thought it would be fun to look at the color trends for this Fall and Winter.

The first 2 I want to feature are Lemon Grass and Lyons Blue. Both are a little different than what we all expect for Autumn shades. Computer/phone screens are not always accurate with colors, so do look up the colors somewhere else to get the best idea of the true colors.

Lemon Grass describes the color pretty well. I would place it in the warm arena, but just barely.

The next color is Lyons Blue.

It is definitely on the warm side of the color spectrum. This makes it easier to coordinate with the other colors. Always try to stay in the same palette of warm OR cool colors and you will increase the likelihood of looking sharp and coordinated.

I pulled all these photos from Pinterest. Some are from Etsy, but most do not have any identifying information about them. If there is, I post it.

What makes a color warm? It’s all about undertones. Warm colors have a yellow base, cool colors have a blue base. If you were to mix paint, you would add in a dab of yellow to make a color warmer. Similarly, to make it cooler add a dab of true blue.

In between Lemon Grass and Lyons Blue we have Brandied Melon. Take the color peach and throw in some pale bronze and you have Brandied Melon. It’s not tan. It’s not peach or pale coral. It does have highlights of orange in it, but very subtle.

It was difficult to find this color for examples.

Next is Winterberry. I personally love this color! It is similar to burgundy, but not as rich and less red.

By the way, I really need these shoes, don’t you think?

The final color I will feature today is Primrose Pink.

Primrose Pink is not just a pale pink. Like the other seasonal colors, it has a slight warm undertone to it. You might think it only goes with Winterberry, but actually it can go with the other shades also! 

Experiment with color. You might find a new combination that is fresh for the coming seasons.

That’s it for today!

‘Til next time,
