Need help with label element.

I can't see where I am getting this wrong.

The instructions say: "Add a label element to the select menu with the text "Shirt Color.""

The error reads, "You need to add a label for the 'color' select element.

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>HTML Forms</title>
  </head>
  <body>

    <form action="index.html" method="post">
      <h1>Shirt Order Form</h1>
      <select id="color" name="shirt_color">
        <label for="color">Shirt Color:</label>
        <option value="red">Red</option>
        <option value="yellow">Yellow</option>
        <option value="purple">Purple</option>
        <option value="blue">Blue</option>
        <option value="green">Green</option>

    </form>
