We've been missing out on the Color Marketing Group's chosen fashion colors for 2004! (Yes, non-fashionistas, a group of freaks, err, executives get together and pick colors from their opium-induced dreams and foist them on design and fashion industries.) Apparently, this is what you were supposed to be wearing this summer:

"Vanilla - Create your own sundae with this go-with-everything color.
Hortensia - This casual blue dresses up and goes to work.
Phthalo Green - Good luck! This scarab green will protect you.
Bijou Red - Ooh la la! At the Moulin Rouge, rubies are a girl's best friend.
Giraffe - Stick your neck out and go for this Serengeti brown, inspired by copper, arts & crafts, and African block prints.
Nougat - Sticky sweet and so delicious. It s blush with undertones of copper."

We've got a hot color for fall. It's "Bile - Ooh la la! Can you feel it rising?"
