The Pantone Color Institute is a world authority on color for fashion, home decor, paints…and the Color of the Year! In 2026 it’s named Cloud Dancer. They’ve based this choice on the social mood worldwide, deciding on a shade that they believe is “a whisper of peace in a noisy world.” I believe most of us would agree that is a perfect goal for these times. So I’m taking a look at how to use this in our outfits, keeping in mind its therapeutic qualities.
Let’s clear our minds, purify ourselves, let our dreams guide us and flow like angels in the clouds. Let’s replace heavy trudging with dancing, light and free. The way you dress gives off a vibe that stays with you all day and emanates outward toward others around you. Age doesn’t matter.
Below, discover Cloud Dancer. Wearing white may sound like a simple thing, but we can all benefit from exploring special ways to wear it in our outfits. You’ll find the psychology of this color at the end of this post. For its healing properties, see “How to Dress Yourself for Immunity Using the Amazing Powers of Color” HERE.

As I write this, we are nearing the end of winter in my part of the world. I, myself, am continuing to enjoy the winter with hygge living. (For more on that, see my post “It’s Always a Good Time to Explore Hygge Style” HERE.) But most of us are looking forward to spring. It’s still cold and warm clothes are necessary, but wearing white can feel fresh and remind us of spring and summer. Fashion no longer dictates that white is restricted to those seasons; white is now worn year round. So the question is: how to wear white when it’s cold outside?
We can use color to signal the coming of spring. Why don’t you try creating outfits with white and then as the first flowers bloom, add pops of spring colors to what you wear every day? You can get inspiration for that from my post “Want to Know How to Use Spring Colors Now?” HERE. When dressing by color, one size fits all; so age doesn’t matter.
Besides, mother nature looks beautiful in sparkling white snow. Why not take a cue from her and sparkle yourself, perhaps in white faux furs and crystal white jewels for instance? Let’s take a look at the different ways to get cozy in shades of white.
