If most people think of the number 13 as unlucky, Pantone is out to neutralize that. This 2013, the color authority has declared none other than lucky emerald green as the Color of the Year.
Emerald: a color reminiscent of leprechauns, pots of gold, and four-leaf clovers. In spring/summer, emerald green is lush and vibrant. Then, in the fall/winter, it transforms into a luxurious and elegant jewel tone.
