Note: We know that looking at a blank page is sometimes a great way to provide inspiration- but not when it comes to fashion! Next time we’ll learn how to save our posts before letting them go live. Here’s the long-awaited way to be a green machine…
With St. Patrick’s Day approaching next week the number of people looking to incorporate green into their outfits seems to have doubled in size. Of course, it helps that a ton of green seems to popping up in spring fashions and this year’s greens are bright and springy, which may leave some fashionistas clueless as to how to incorporate all these brights into their wardrobes. St. Patrick’s Day just seems like the perfect excuse to figure out how, and it doesn’t have to involve shamrocks.
Green can be a tricky colour to wear simply because there are so many shades. Luckily for those ladies out there looking to get more green in their lives, there are quite a few around to choose from. There is a shade of green for everyone to wear. It’s just a matter of figuring out which one works best with your skin tone. The trick is to keep in mind whether or not warm (lots of yellow) or cool (lots of blue) greens suit you best. Still not looking the best? Try different saturations of green (lighter or darker) and pay attention to which ones wash you out and which ones overwhelm you.
The good news is that green goes with lots of colours and lots of different accessories. You choose which styles suit you best! In our Polyvore debut, we’ve got three different shades of green worn three different ways to show just how easy it is to be green- with no leprechauns or frogs in sight!
