Living on Cloud Nine: Pantone Color of he year 2025

What a special post we have today! That is because not only does it involve fashion, but it involves a blog hop with 4 of my closest friends, fellow bloggers, otherwise known as The Blonde Squad ! We are styling the beautiful 2025 Pantone color of the year: Mocha Mousse.

Mocha Mousse, a super warm, rich brown color that feels neutral, comforting and relaxing.

Unlike the rich, deep browns of early autumn, Pantone is forecasting a teddy bear-esque '70s shade to take center stage.

Mocha Mousse isn’t meaty but rather a plant-based hue, one that mainly calls to mind sweet rather than savory. It’s a nutty brown, the color of flaky almond pastries and almost the exact match for a cup of Swiss Miss.

I’m so excited to be styling several mocha mousse hued pieces. I’ve included dressy, with a satin slip dress, some fabulous athleisure and a cute, casual outfit with a sleeveless, versatile sweater vest.

This satin slip dress is an elevated Take on a regular slip dress. The twisted side and braided strap add such a fun element. Pair with a blazer and you are all set! I kept it simple with some neutral heels.

Let’s talk about the perfect accessory for the color mocha mousse! A beautiful light beige crocodile leather bag from Teddy Blake! I’m so happy that Teddy Blake is also offering coin purses that match. Look how beautiful this Nina Croco 12" Tote in Light Beige! Ahhh my love of TB runs deep! The Italian craftsmanship with the suede interior and gold toned detailing is so rich and elegant! This luxe bag comes in 8 colors, and you can use code: TBAndreaN for 10% off!

The light beige color of the bag is a perfect complement to shades of mocha mousse. Teddy Blake also has bags in camel, brown and dark brown that would be beautiful with the Pantone color too.

I like this one and this one too!

This vest is simple and sweet! I thought white completed that shade so much! The Teddy Blake bag looks so chic with this outfit.
