Pantone's Emerald Green at the Inauguration

Yesterday marked a momentous day in the USA on two levels. First, it was a day to stop and celebrate the life of the late great Martin Luther King, Jr., the ideas and rights he fought for and the legacy and example he left us. We also celebrated the second term of our country's first African American president.   Regardless of your political affiliation or un-affiliation (for some folks), it was a great day to reflect on how far we've come as a country in our ideals and the execution of these ideals in terms of race relations. This is a huge deal, and I'm looking forward to the day when we can say Madam President.

Now that that's out of the way, one of the highlights of the Inauguration ceremony for me was watching Beyonce sing the National Anthem wearing Pantone's color of the year, Emerald! She looked amazing!
