It’s a new year and that brings the new trends in fashion and decor. This year hosts a cool palette of hot new colors and one of the hottest colors is a fierce jewel tone dubbed Cockatoo. As with most fashion trends, Cockatoo will transition from the runway to the bridal world quickly, becoming a first choice for 2012 nuptials.
Sometimes referred to as Peacock Blue, cockatoo is an elegant, versatile, and an ultra flattering color for all skin tones. Cockatoo works well with other colors too. A bride might like to pair it with other cool neutrals, such a grays or silvers, or if you are wanting a more vibrant look, perhaps the deep, vivid purples or warm oranges for a dramatic effect.
Don’t limit Cockatoo just for wearing, it can make a bold statement when used in wedding decor as well. Take a cockatoo ribbon and accent it in a beautiful floral bouquet for a subtle touch but still keeping on trend. Another idea would be to use peacock feathers in your centerpiece floral arrangements to create a unique and memorable splash to your wedding decor. [Love it]
Okay, if you are thinking Cockatoo is way too much color, don’t decide against it so quickly. Here are some favors in shades of blue that will compliment the cockatoo shade wonderfully.
Brides are always looking for her “something blue” and Cockatoo may be just the right fit for you! Keep posted for more Wedding Trends For 2012.
Cheers
