Pantone, the leading authority on color, has decided that turquoise will be the official shade of 2010.

The blue-green hue may evoke memories of your mom's wacky eyeshadow in the 80's but was actually selected for its "soothing" properties. Pantone thought that at such a sullen time in our economy, it was best to select a color that would help us "escape from the everyday troubles of the world", a sentiment I think we can all agree to.

Although the new year has yet to arrive, the turquoise trend has already been spotted making its way around the globe.  SOURCE
