Fall 2026 color trends from Pantone at NYFW

Color swatches c/o Pantone /

The color trends from the New York Fashion Week runways are here! We are starting to see more color going down the runways in addition to the neutral hues designers and consumers have been favoring over the past few years. This signals a trend towards re-adding color to our wardrobes. Love that!

The colors from NYFW for the fall/winter 2026/2027 season are offering a mix of traditional autumn hues and spring/summer shades. I love seeing “Neptune” and “All Aboard” mixed in with autumn colors such as “Red Mahogany” and “Burnt Olive.” This gives us leeway next fall to really play with the colors we choose to wear.

The top five neutral colors are also a mix in vivid, classic colors which play well together and also mixed with the vivid top ten hues from the runway. Love it!

You can learn more by visiting Pantone.com. What do you think of the fall/winter 2026/2027 color trends from the New York Fashion Week runways? Do you have a favorite hue?

Zazil and night lights

The weather was clear and spring-like this past weekend so we decided to enjoy a meal out at Zazil on Santana Row. We were lucky to get an outside table where we could the music from El Jardin, the night lights, and the overall evening buzz.

I was in a mole mood, so I ordered the Plantain Croquettes with mole sauce, and my husband enjoyed chicken enchiladas. As usual, the food was delicious. If you are local, and you haven’t been to Zazil, I highly recommend going; and order something with mole sauce! Yum!

After dinner, we enjoyed the overall mood of a weekend night at Santana Row and took some photos in front of NetApp’s digital art.

I wore my cozy peacoat and barrel jeans, which you may have noticed are a huge favorite of mine this season! Cozy cozy!
