It is the first time that two colors were selected for a year. This is in light of the pandemic where everyone, no matter the status, race, and location were affected. The chosen shades denotes strength and hopefulness. The colors are uplifting and enduring, two things that we need to overcome the uncertainty we see in 2021.

Color Pick Process

The executive director of the company selects the Pantone of the year. He said that he looks for colors that can be used more broadly. Their yearly color of choice is used not only in apparel but also in the cosmetic industry. The chosen color also has a profound underlying meaning. As we have mentioned, this year was a symbol of hope and strength. The 2020s color represents the shade of dusk. The color was defined as a color of anticipation of what will happen next, and boy, what a whirlwind experience it was!

Gray

Why gold and silver

Gold

Gold has been a figure of splendor and sparkle that ever since the ancient time; it was linked to the sun. A versatile precious metal, when alloyed with other metals, produces an array of shades while maintaining it glorious golden luster and appeal. Gold is comparable to us humans in a way that we are each other's source of light. Each of us is precious in our own right that we shall continue to shine even when covered with mud. We just need to wash all the negativity away, for deep inside, we are still as precious and will sparkle like gold.

Silver

If gold is associated with the sun, silver, on the other hand, is linked to the moon. Silver represents strength and focus, a precious metal also associated with wisdom, positivity, and mystery. Silver hair is another term for old people with white hair. This may be the root of silver as a mark of wisdom. We have proven that we are strong, especially when we unite as one. Silver is not a perfect metal as among the precious metal, it is the only one prone to oxidation and corrosion. However, silver jewelry was once more valued among them, and even as of now, silver in sterling form remains a sought after jewelry. What is unique about silver is that it is the spirituality it is linked to. Dubbed as a mirror to one's soul and believed to be a purifying metal absorbing negative energy from the body as it supplies positive energy in return.

Earrings for Men

Silver is much preferred by men when it comes to jewelry for its understated glam. Silver studs and huggie earrings easygoing character appeals to the younger generation.
