This makes me so happy, I’ve been waiting for a “white color” to be named Color of the Year by one of the major players. I actually thought white would be named the color of the year for 2015. It was a toss-up between an olive color or white color for me. I thought it was a stretch for a White color get the honor just because most people don’t view white as a color but white is such a key essential color for any space from paint to accessories to furnishings. White often times is the color that brings continuity to a home through a trim or ceiling color.

We saw white emerging in fashion a couple of years ago as a top trend especially in the little white dress, and this season it’s all about the white top. White isn’t going anywhere … it’s a classic I’m so glad it’s having its day.

White home accessories are really gaining momentum as well as white paint colors.

My all-time favorite white paint color is Capitol White CW-10 from Benjamin Moore, I just can’t get enough of the creamy rich white paint color from their Williamsburg Collection.
