It’s officially Fall– time to break out the blanket scarves and plaid. It’s also the perfect time to introduce this Jolie Signature Neutral, Espresso! Why get caught up in pumpkin spice that only comes around one season a year, when you can always have espresso?! As a neutral, Espresso is here to stick around with all of the other neutrals one would usually consider, but it really gives extra warmth where the others are lacking. This deep brown looks best when embellished with Jolie Finishing Wax in Black.

It looks like dark wood and we love using it on table tops to mimic dark luscious woods or as an anchor piece in a room that has loads of color. Espresso pairs well with all colors, but we particularly like it with warm orange-y pinks or blushes.
Espresso also plays nicely with gold gilding wax, or even gold leaf! It is such a versatile color that often gets overlooked. The next time you’re looking for a neutral, consider this warm, rich color!
