How to Incorporate Pantone’s Verdure Palette into Your Home

May 01, 2017

While Pantone’s 2018 color trends are very bold, their Verdure palette is all about those “vegetal” tones. Think: Celery and Foliage hues with a modern twist of berry-infused purples and eggshell blue. If you’re looking for a decor change, but aren’t quite ready to bid adieu to those pastels, the Verdure palette might be just what you need. Color-blocked artwork, bold kitchen cabinets, and plenty of indoor garden goodness await you in the 15 fab rooms below. Explore onward!

1. Abstract Love: Don’t you just love it when all you need is one piece of artwork to nail every shade in a new color palette? Hunt down a piece with lilac purple, warm greens, and soft blues, and then pair it with fresh, solid-colored bedding for a quick bedroom makeover. (via Leah Bartholomew)

2. Half and Half: A bold, half lilac wall will ensure that your dining room of clean lines and solids is far from dull. Complement with some greenery and pops of blue for the prettiest room ever. (via Inside Out)

3. Cool Tones: Something about the contrast of light purple and bold blue feels so crisp and refreshing. This monochromatic gray and white palette becomes the perfect place to play around with a single accent color from the palette. (via Greenhouse Interiors)

4. So Fresh: Your breakfast nook becomes a statement-maker with the help of graphic patterns and colorful dining room chairs. Keep the facelift going by accessorizing your heart out with funky dishes or a big bouquet of cheery blooms. (via Home Beautiful)

5. Color-Blocked Cabinets: This kitchen doesn’t shy away from mixing traditionally dominant colors. Throw in a set of light purple dish towels and a lilac tea kettle and you’ve nailed the Verdure palette to a V. (via Brett Mickan Interior Design)

6. Vibrant Tiles: Anyone else totally digging that lilac, retro-chic breakfast nook peeking out at the end of the hall? Paired with white cabinets and floor-to-ceiling green tiles, this space screams spring. (via Lonny)

7. Dark, Muted Greenery: Don’t be afraid to go dark on your walls with a deep shade like the dreamy green-blue pictured above. The trick is to fill the room with soft pieces — like flowy green curtains and pastel accents — to keep things light and airy. (via Line Klein)

8. Cozy Hygge: Take a more subtle approach to the palette with sky blue walls. But remember that paint, wallpaper, and blankets aren’t the only way to bring that Foliage color into your space — a few plants will really make that Verdure look shine. (via Spatial Code)

9. Bright Balance: Subtlety is totally key in this calm and serene living room. The soft, solid accent pieces make the space feel alive without disrupting the chill atmosphere. (via Black Lacquer Design)

10. Coastal Influence: With a color palette focused on shades found in nature, it only makes sense to turn to beachy decor. The light blue-ish gray sofa and chunky wooden coffee table are perfect accents for the laid-back style. (via Amber Interiors)

11. Greenery Galore: Having a minimalist space doesn’t mean there’s no room for a Verdure-approved arrangement. The colorful lamp and junglicious indoor garden have just the right amount of subtle *pop.* (via Eve Wilson)

12. Patio Porn: Sometimes all you need is a killer tablecloth. Okay, and maybe a teal chair or two. This outdoor space rocks all the colors in the palette with a fab selection of throw pillows and plenty of plant life. (via H&M)

13. Refreshing Contrasts: The Verdue palette is ideal for that coastal-chic vibe you’ve been dreaming of. Just curate a mismatch of pastel throw pillows, a rustic coffee table, and a rug with a touch of textured flair for one seriously fab area. (via Style by Emily Henderson)

14. All About That Art: If you’re kind of an artsy #girlboss, pick up a giant canvas and try your hand at making a Verdure color-blocked masterpiece. Paired with natural fibers, like fluffy wool and unfinished wood, it’ll be the star of your decor. (via Leah Bartholomew)

15. Airy Getaway: If you’re not totally convinced by the wonders of the Verdure palette, test it out with a more minimal approach. Just a few throw pillows and potted plants are the perf way to bring the lineup into any decor style for a mini refresh. (via Target)

Why Timothée Chalamet Abandoned “Good Friend” Austin Butler’s ‘Elvis’ Method For Bob Dylan Role

Austin Butler as Elvis, Selena Gomez as Linda Rondstat, and now Timothée Chalamet as Bob Dylan — there will never be enough biopics for me! (The real question is when are we going to get a Taylor Swift movie?). When pictures from the set of the new Bob Dylan movie, A Complete Unknown, hit Twitter, I had to do a double take because Timothée Chalamet looks so much like the musician I couldn't believe my eyes! You can watch the A Complete Unknown trailer here.

Timothée is going to be joined by Met Gala queen Elle Fanning, as well as Top Gun superstar Monica Barbaro. Here's everything you need to know about the movie — and our favorite Bob Dylan songs to listen to while you wait for its release.

Keep reading to see the latest updates from Timothée Chalamet's Bob Dylan biopic A Complete Unknown.

Timothée Chalamet stars in A Complete Unknown, coming to theaters December 25, 2024.
He's joined by Elle Fanning and Monica Barbaro.
The movie follows Bob Dylan's career in the 1960s as he rises to fame and later shifts from folk to rock'n'roll.

Did Timothée Chalamet take inspiration from Austin Butler’s Elvis?

Timothée Chalamet recently revealed that while he originally wanted to approach A Complete Unknown by taking direct inspiration from Bob Dylan, he quickly changed his tone...so to speak. "Somebody once said to me, you can't make a movie about a painter because it's not interesting to watch paint dry," he says in People's exclusive video. "Bob has that element because he's not one of these forward-facing musicians."

While Timmy saw Natalie Portman a sequence in Jackie "step-for-step exactly what Jackie did," and paid attention to "all this stuff that I saw my good friend Austin Butler crush it with on Elvis," he quickly realized "I gotta do none of this because this is not my style."

"Bob did not have a vocal coach," he continues. "He had two bottles of red wine and four packs of cigarettes. There's no way to impersonate that." One of my favorite things about biopics is seeing how a well-known actor portrays a recognizable figure. And you can see Timothée Chalamet's interpretation of Bob Dylan in theaters December 25!

Monica Barbaro Sings Her Heart Out

twitter.com

We got a look at Monica Barbaro as singer-songwriter Joan Baez, who was one of the first major artists in the 1960s to record Bob Dylan's music!

I was super impressed to learn Timothée showed up and sang live for the film. "It was important for me to play and sing on set because it was in the spirit of the movie to do it live," he says in a video from People. "Many of the artists through American pop culture that had the balls to turn their back on what was expected of them, that moment started with Bob. His words are relevant; 'Times They are A Changing' ' is relevant, 'Blowin' in the Wind' is relevant."

Elle Fanning and Timothée Chalamet In "A Complete Unknown"

twitter.com

Elle Fanning totally embodies the late '60s vibe in this fall outfit. The bold maroon blazer, the long straight hair, and the striped turtleneck — I love it all! Elle is starring this Bob Dylan movie as Sylvie Russo, a university student and artist Bob falls for in the '60s.

twitter.com

Thanks to some onset leaks, we also got a glimpse of the movie's version of The Freewheelin'! Elle Fanning and Timothée Chalamet look incredible as Sylvia Russo and Bob Dylan. I'm a sucker for any kind of recreation, so seeing this new version of the classic record cover is incredible!!

The First Pictures From Timothée Chalamet's Bob Dylan Movie

twitter.com

Timothée Chalamet has totally transformed into Bob Dylan on the set of A Complete Unknown. And when I saw the pictures of Timothée carrying the guitar my jaw dropped!! He completely engrossed himself in Wonka and Dune 2 and I'm so excited to see him do the same for this Bob Dylan movie.

What is the movie about Bob Dylan called?

A Complete Unknown Plot

Timothée Chalamet's Bob Dylan movie is called A Complete Unknown. The movie filmed around New York City in the spring of 2024, and James Mangold is serving as director (you might recognize his name from Logan, Girl, Interrupted, and Walk the Line). The movie will cover the period during the 1960s when Bob Dylan shifted from folk to rock'n'roll, changing the face of pop culture (and culture in general, TBH), forever.

"When that movie finally comes out, people are going to be shocked because you're going to think you're hearing Bob Dylan sing," vocal coach Eric Vetro tells PEOPLE. "[Timothée Chalamet] just has this uncanny ability to not impersonate, but really breathe life into it. He's embodying Bob Dylan and what he was like at that age."

A Complete Unknown Cast

The A Complete Unknown cast is incredible! Alongside Timothée Chalamet as Bob Dylan, we'll see Top Gun: Maverick's Monica Barbaro as Joan Baez, Elle Fanning as Sylvie Russo, Edward Norton as Pete Seeger, Boyd Holbrook as Johnny Cash, and Nick Offerman as Alan Lomax.

When is the Bob Dylan movie coming out?

A Complete Unknown Release Date

A Complete Unknown will hit theaters on December 25, 2024. And since Timothée Chalamet has been seen in turtlenecks, hats, and jackets on set, this sounds like the perfect cozy movie to me!

I always need some brand new music to listen to once the weather gets chilly, and I will for sure be listening to anything Timothée records.

What song did Bob Dylan write for a movie?

Christopher Polk/Getty Images for VH1

Bob Dylan wrote "Things Have Changed" for the 2000 movie Wonder Boys, which starred Michael Douglas, Tobey Maguire, and Katie Holmes. This Bob Dylan song ended up winning the Academy Award for Best Original Songand the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song!

"Knockin' On Heaven's Door," which is arguably the singer's most popular track, was released two months after the 1973 premiere of Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid as a part of the film's soundtrack.

What are some other Bob Dylan songs to listen to?

Michael Ochs Archives/Getty Images

I totally agree that one of the best Bob Dylan songs is "Knockin' On Heaven's Door," but "Blowin' In The Wind" and "The Times They Are A-Changin'" are also great songs to listen to if you're a new Bob Dylan fan. So far, "The Times They Are A-Changin'" is my personal favorite song.

His style is the perfect blend of rock and folk that reminds me of summer picnics and walks in the woods. His sound also reportedly inspired Taylor Swift's Folklore!

Renée Zellwegger & Leo Woodall Prove Age Gaps Are Sexy In 'Bridget Jones: Mad About The Boy' Trailer

If you're a rom-com fan who also can't get enough of Jane Austen's books, you've probably seen the Bridget Jones movies. The story (which is loosely based on Pride & Prejudice) follows the titular Bridget Jones, a 30-something who sets out on a mission to improve herself over the course of a year while she looks for a partner. And, in true romantic movie form, she keeps a diary the whole time. Not only can we rewatch the original trilogy as many times as we want, but we're also getting a fourth movie! Here's everything we know about Bridget Jones 4.
