Pantone, the color consulting firm and manufacturer of graphic arts, fashion, home and paint-related products, named mimosa the color of 2009.

Mimosa is described as "a warm, engaging yellow" color, named after the mimosa tree and the yummy cocktail.

Though we're in the middle of winter, you can still add the mimosa color to your wardrobe for instant cheer, style and inspiration.

  • Wear with jewelry made from natural elements, like wood, for a complementary look that blends well with other colors.
  • Easily incorporate mimosa into your wardrobe with a simple scarf, nail polish or bright headband.
  • Consider a coat in a bold gold or mimosa color to brighten up your everyday winter look.
  • Layer over gray tights or tees for a pretty transition into spring.
  • For the spring and summer, add pops of coral or turquoise to look fresh and tropical, without going overboard.
