Urban Decay 24/7 Eyeliner Pencil in Asphyxia || $19 – Urban Decay makes some of the best of eyeliner’s that I’ve tried. They glide on so easily and yet don’t smudge and they will stay PUT! The Asphyxia eyeliner shade will give you a nice pop of the Color of the Year where ever you decide to put it.

Michael Kors Selma Large Leather Satchel in Fuchsia || $358 – A Michael Kors purse is on my dream wishlist. I would love to have one but right now it’s a bit to expensive. That being said, for those who can afford it, this purse is a nice way to incorporate the Color of the Year if you don’t think you can pull off the makeup.

Color Club Nail Polish in Wicker Park || $12 – I’m loving Color Club nail polishes, they have good lasting power and the formulation is great. A shade that is close to the Color of the Year that can put on the fingers is toes is great!

MAC Eye Shadow in Creme de Violet || $15 – For those who are brave enough to incorporate the Color of the Year into their makeup routine this MAC eye shadow in Creme de Violet is the way to go as it has a bit of shimmer in it too.

MAC Lipstick in Up the Amp || $15 – And for the those who are really brave, MAC has a lipstick in the shade Up the Amp that would be awesome to try.

How would you incorporate the Color of the Year into your routine?

I would love a jacket or sweater in that color family, it’s so pretty. I’m going to have to try some Urban Decay liner, liner always runs on me and looks like I’ve been crying, I need something that stays put.
Robin (Masshole Mommy)

That lip color is HAWT! I am a big purple/orchid fan, so I have lots of accessories & clothing in that color!
Kita

I am loving that purple omg just those colors alone have me interested. I am more concerned with the purse than the makeup though lol I need that purse.
Virginia @thatbaldchick

That Michael Kors Selma Large Leather Satchel in Fuchsia is GORGEOUS!
Lindsey @ Redhead Baby Mama

So awesome. I did a Radiant Orchid post today, too! I would be most likely to try it in an eyeshadow first – a spot of color. I look better in browns.
Jessica

I love anything purple especially that gorgeous Michael Kors bag! I am not sure if I could pull of that purple lipstick but it sure is a beautiful color.
Kristine Foley

Crushing hard over this color! Beautiful picks! Thanks for the inspiration and eye candy this morning!
Melanie

I LOVE THAT COLOR! I’ve been thinking about doing an accent wall in our house in a purple shade.
brett

Melissa

Great minds think alike as I posted about the new color of the year today as well. haha! I really love that MK bag.

  LOL I saw that and laughed while I was commenting on yours. Isn’t it a gorgeous bag? I just wish the price was a little cuter 😉

    I know right! I don’t make it a habit to spend hundreds of dollars on handbags often or like ever. haha

I got hooked on Urban Decay eye shadow several years ago and have used it ever since. We finally got an Ulta at our mall so I know longer have to order it from sephora.com.
Mina Slater

I love Urban Decay eyeliners! Okay well I love almost everything by Urban Decay lol. I think I’m going to throw a lot of radiant orchid into my wardrobe more than with my makeup because I think it just looks so beautiful in fabrics. Plus I need to step away with my obsession with mint, coral and cobalt…radiant orchid is just the color I need to switch it up!
Jaime

I’m dying over the nail polish. I’m a sucker for purple-ish nail polish! I don’t tend to wear a ton of eye makeup because it irritates my eyes (and that lip color just wouldn’t work well on me, unfortunately!)
April

Loving the MAC eyeshadow and the urban Decay eyeliner. Sephora here I come (tomorrow)!
Laura MyNewestaddiction

I am so excited about this color of the year. It won’t be hard to work this one in to everything!
Jenn @TheRebelChick

Purples don’t really compliment me, but the color makes my eyes pop! I love the eye shadow, I bet it would look fantastic with my green eyes!
Jamie

Now this, this is my color! I received a plum from Marykay and I love it! I will look into this!
Liz @ A Nut in a Nutshell

I love that lipstick color, and I think I love the nail polish even more than that! Gorgeous color on these things.
Onica Cupido

I think this is such a pretty color. Easiest way for me to add this color to my life is by nail polish. That’s always a fun way.
Joanna Sormunen

I love the radiant orchid color. And I think this make up will look great on a lot of people. I personally don’t use make up, or almost never use it.
Melanie S.

I could see myself doing this color in a nice turtleneck sweater. I love turtlenecks. 🙂
Melissa

LOVE the color! That eyeshadow would be popping!
Janel

I love this shade!! So different! I’ve been hearing that kelly green and purples are coming in!
Ashley M

EVERYTHING on this speaks to me but ESPECIALLY the Michael Kors leather satchel.
Piera

I love the color Radiant Orchid! I really love purples! I would probably incorporate in eye shadow and clothing and accessories.
Liza @ Views From the ‘Ville

I was really excited to see this chosen at the color of the year. I’ve been doing lots of Pinterest searches for items in this hue, because I love it! That Michael Kors bag is gorgeous!
