After a year that was a lot, to say the least, the Pantone Color Institute is giving us a color trend that forecasts our hope and perseverance going into the new year. The Pantone Color of the Year is two shades — Ultimate Gray and Illuminating — "a marriage of color conveying a message of strength and hopefulness that is both enduring and uplifting." This unexpected color combination looks great together and you're sure to see it everywhere from runways to home decor. While we all probably have a cozy gray sweater in our wardrobe, have you considered illuminating your winter wardrobe with a pop of yellow?

Don't worry! We have you covered with some great selects for you to be colorblocking in Illuminating and Ultimate Gray from Gap. Plus, with the site having a major sale (we're talking up to 75 percent off with the codes BIGSALE and ADDON), now is the time to get these great deals while they last.
