The Year of the Horse starts on February 17, 2026, and this is the perfect time to make sure you have something in lucky red to wear, and plenty of Lunar New Year gifts to give.

The Year of the Horse in 2026 is a Fire Horse; and babies born in this lunar new year will be independent, confident, responsible, and agreeable. They will be hard workers who are athletic, strive for success, and will rarely accept defeat.

To celebrate the year of the horse, I found a few fabulous lucky red gift ideas and Lunar New Year gifts to help bring good luck and celebrate the new year. Love!

Thanks for stopping by and have a fabulous new year!

Color of the Year 2026 Cloud Dancer

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!

For more information about the Pantone color of the year for 2026, Cloud Dancer, please visit Pantone.com.

How will you incorporate Cloud Dancer into your wardrobe or daily life in the new year?

Thanks for stopping by!
