00:00Welcome to Five Stars, where we put new trends to the test. Today, it's all about the Pantone
00:05color of the year, Mocha Mousse. As its name suggests, Mocha Mousse is a true neutral. It's
00:10more of a camel than a chocolate brown. It'll make you think of delectable foods like warm cookies,
00:15flaky croissants, chocolate mousse. Pantone describes it as a warming brown hue imbued
00:20with richness. I start my day wearing a foamy nude coat, a darker toned scarf, and a chocolatey
00:26dress. I don't want to give too much away, but my oat mocha was probably the hottest part of my
00:30day.
00:31My first impression? It's brown. It's not revolutionary, but it is refreshing in a way.
00:36It feels classic and put together. It pairs well with other neutrals, and there's enough
00:40variations to suit many skin tones. A midday outfit change for science makes me feel like I've been
00:46dipped in a vat of caramel. I personally prefer these darker, nuttier tones since they wash me
00:50out less. That said, I can't ignore the fact that I'm blending into my surroundings. It feels a little
00:55bland. Here's my verdict. Mocha mousse is a classic wintry tone. It's more fun to style it from
