I hate foods that involve Marsala because it usually means that there are mushrooms involved and I hate mushrooms because I have the palate of a 12-year-old boy. You know mushrooms don't grow like normal vegetables do, right? They grow in, like, musty woodland areas, next to trees and moss and all that other gross shit. But enough about my embarrassing taste in food. Marsala has been deemed by Pantone, the official authority on such matters, as the color of the year for 2015, meaning we should prepare ourselves to see the reddish, purple-ish hue on all matter of clothing come next year.

You gotta fucking love Patone. They're out here predicting the future success of colors like Jay Bilas is in the booth, scouting and calling out stats and the breadth of options that Marsala provides. I don't know about you, but Marsala is a dope color to me, mostly because I associate it with this Barena coat that I'm in love with. Also, peep the press release I linked to and look at some of the winners from previous years. "Radiant Orchid"? "Tangerine Tango"? Get all the way the fuck outta here with that garbage. I'm all in on Marsala. Let's go.
