Minty Fresh

 

Perhaps you heard last week that Pantone declared EMERALD as the color for 2013. It seems greens will be of-the-moment for fashion and home in the coming months. I particularly noticed mint green on Spring 2013 runways and immediately took note.

 

I’ve already seen this hue popping up in stores and online. Since it’s the holiday season, why not go for a fresh take on the standard holiday green and pair your mint with metallic silvers or golds? Or how about an oversized grey sweater, jeans, and those mint green pumps above for a casual dinner date? (And can we talk about how chic the color looks incorporated into utilitarian goods like pencils and Swiss Army Knives?!)

 

Tell me, are you going to incorporate this trend into your wardrobe and if so, how? Make me green with envy! (I couldn’t resist.)

P.S. I think Beth needs this sweatshirt  (in mint, of course). I know she loves her fabulous hubby, and surely she misses her Texas margaritas …
