Emerald Green

Green isn't one of the more common colors for clothing and accessories. Emerald green in particular is even rarer. This is the reason why I'm featuring it today.

Excluding emeralds themselves, emerald green is a color that is often undervalued. The shade is rich and vibrant and stands out, three characteristics that attract me, but repel many others who shy away from color. If you are the latter, never fear, there are many ways to incorporate this decadent color in more subtle ways.

For an elegant occasion, this dress is perfect if you want to stand out. The emerald green is more subtle here than in some other items, as it doesn't appear as bright. It still makes an impact but is more toned down for someone who doesn't want the maximum effect.

This light emerald, waterproof piece is perfect for cooler spring weather and will look equally eye-catching both open and closed. If you are unsure of how to incorporate color into your wardrobe, outerwear is always a good start. Try matching it with a neutral ensemble to add a pop of color or experiment with spring's color blocking trend.

Emerald green is a truly gorgeous color, especially for those with green and hazel eyes. If you want to look specifically for items in this color, I recommend going to your favorite online shops and searching by color. If this isn't an option, searching "emerald green" or even "green" should present good results.

Please look forward to more posts in the future that spotlight certain hues!
