One of Swarovski’s new colours for Spring/Summer 2015 [wow, and I was thinking…is it really mid February 2014 already? *w*] is Crystal Iridescent Green.

 

This mysterious dual-tone effect shines in a combination of blue and green, crowned with a metallic touch. Crystal Iridescent Green is unique to Swarovski. Its shifting, shimmering effects create a mysterious aura and awaken curiosity and attraction. With the high demand for metallics set to continue, this stylish and timeless hue is perfectly placed to become a popular classic.

I’m pretty excited. Recently we’ve had Moss Green (fall/winter 2014) and Chrysolite Opal (spring/summer 2012). And in 2013, Emerald was Pantone’s color of the year:

I like green quite a bit, so it pleases me to see so much green around. Incidentally, it was impossible to find emerald green curtains for our all-white bedroom so I had to sew some up myself (it’s quite a dramatic and fresh look). But for green being so popular, I’m still waiting to see a bit more of it around. Anyhow, I am excited to add the new Crystal Iridescent Green to the inventory. It will go quite nicely with the current colour of the year, Radiant Orchid:
