Pantone's color of the year, Marsala, is an earthy and sophisticated brownish red hue that is reminiscent of the marsala wine commonly used for drinking and cooking. It was chosen as the color for 2015 because of its appeal to both men and women in clothing, accessories, and decors. What makes it so great for accessorizing is that it matches with almost anything!
