From our Beauty & Style Editor, Theresa Johnston
Since Pantone declared emerald green the official color of 2013, it’s been popping up on everything from paint and housewares, to pants and shoelaces. This bright, optimistic hue, and its many variations, is ideal for punching up a mostly-black-and-gray winter wardrobe and will still look fresh when spring finally gets here. Clockwise from left:
T. Babaton Finley Blouse
Team this soft blouse with a sharp cut gray blazer, black ankle-length skinny jeans, and pointy-toed pumps. ($99)
Deepa Gurnani Lombok Pendant Necklace
The glowing green and yellow stones of this statement necklace will brighten up any winter day. ($198)
J.Crew Cafè Capri
I never thought I would be adventurous enough to wear bright green pants. But the slim, sleek cut of these wool capris have totally changed my mind! ($49.99)
BCBG Seed-Bead Bracelet
This clustery, multi-strand bracelet looks great by itself or stacked with other bangles. ($58)
Jessica Simpson Stripe Halter Maxi Dress
OK, you got me. This maxi dress is too summery to wear in chilly January. But I’m going to sunny Mexico in February, so this casual-chic dress will be perfect for relaxing sunset walks on the beach and dressy enough to wear to dinner. ($128.00)
Cambridge Satchel Company Exclusive to Asos Leather Satchel
I’m completely enamored with this satchel’s school-girl vibe. I’m also loving its sturdy leather construction and practical cross-body strap. ($193.49)
Nars Larger Than Life Long-Wear Eyeliner
Amp up a boring makeup routine with a swipe of this bright liner. ($23)
Steven by Steve Madden ‘Ravesh’ Pump
These adorable bow-toe pumps are begging to jazz up a little black cocktail dress. ($148.95)
