Shades of white are hot for the new year! This fresh neutral is the color of 2026, and I am loving this! While Cloud Dancer is a specific shade of white, you can really wear any shade of white in the new year, so there are a lot of options allowing you to rock this hot color trend now! Love that!

Shades of white are being paired with both pastel color palettes and vibrant hues. You can also pair it with shades of brown for an earthy look. Also, as we moved into the new year, handbags are softer, slouchy, and more carefree. Continue looking for hobos, belted totes, the pouch, east/west styles, and soft silhouettes.

Handbags are an easy way to incorporate shades of white into your wardrobe. You can easily wear this handbag color with anything and everything on a daily basis. The temperature outside doesn’t matter and the color combo you are wearing won’t matter either; the white handbag will match and be perfect with your outfit. Love that!

Move over Mocha Mousse, there’s a new color of the year from Pantone in town! Cloud Dancer is the color of 2026, and I have to admit, I am surprised! I expected a soft green, or something not so. . .. neutral shall we say? But I digress. . .

Here we are. In 2026 it’s all about shades of white. Cloud Dancer is a soft, slightly off-white hue. It reflects new beginnings, a reset in mindset, and a clean slate. As people try to get off their devices and touch grass, we are seeing a shift of getting back to reality. Cloud Dancer by Pantone is a reflection of our society’s current mindset of resetting and moving away from distractions and clutter, a yearning for simplicity.

Cloud Dancer, and shades of white in general, are increasingly popular in fashion, interior design, and daily life. Although we saw pops of vibrant color on the runways for spring, the overall vibe for 2026 is clean and fresh. We will see a continuation of neutrals, with the occasional color infused for depth and variety. So, pull those shades of white out from the back of your closet and rock them in 2026!
