1. Radiant Orchid
The 2014 color of the year is Radiant Orchid, according to color authority, Pantone. We’re starting to see this soft pinkish-purple hue appear in spring florals and knits, like this Suzi Roher scarf from Ashby’s Boutique • Denim Lab, $275.

2. Tartan Plaid
Plaid will make a comeback this season. Don’t be afraid to break with tradition and go all out with this time-honored pattern. Try a matching set in a modern cut like this Glamorous red tartan ensemble from STAXX, top $25, skirt $38. 

3. Animal Print
Animal print of every kind will be huge. Go all out with these Maison Scotch snakeskin print cords from STAXX, $129. 

4. Cross Body Bags
Cross body bags are a must have for late winter. Keep it sophisticated by choosing a simple black and white pattern like this Spartina 449 bag from Countryside Cottage, $78.
