We’re all too familar with the standard Fall uniform: black, tan, navy and maybe even a touch of cream for excitement {sarcasm fully intended}. But even if you’re a total color-phobe, we’re here to assure you, you can add color to your fall wardrobe – especially if it’s this lush moody mossy emerald green!
Sure, a closet full of neutrals is a very wise investment. When you stick with a uniform you’re suddenly able to mix and match with ease, you’re likely to wear pieces more often and can keep your closet edited down {my current fashion life-goal!}. But every once in awhile it’s fun to throw in a curve ball and this season I’m all about this crazy cool green hue! More sultry than your standard emerald, but more luscious than the old-school forrest green, it’s actually rather difficult to put your finger on what makes it so perfect. One line called it Woodland Green – I think that gets close. It’s like the deepest, richest green of a pine tree. Regardless, I love how perfectly it would pair with black, with brown – even navy!
If you’re still not totally convinced, why not test it out with a little nail polish {they call the color Shutter.}? Or if you want to keep things understated {and hidden!} how about switching up your lingere!?
I think my favorite option is that super cute handbag. It’s nice to give your standard black bag a break every now and then! What do you think? Would you add a new hue to your fall look?

I love everything! Green 4ever
This is my birthstone color, so I’m naturally obsessed. Love all your picks.
i’ve always loved jewel tones for fall.
and your pick are gorgeous…can’t believe that bag is $70!
LOVE this color!
I LOVE that color!! In Charleston it’s known as Charleston Green. I can’t remember the exact story behind it, but there’s something to do with taxation in colonial times and the colonists mixing yellow paint into the black paint. That bag is BEAUTIFUL!
LOVE this color, and excellent pics you’ve chosen to convince. Geeez, how I wish I could find the sweater and skirt ensemble, holy smacks! I found the boots and guess the knits are CK collection, but hard to find. Any leads? Thanks! Michelle
