STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Graceful in Green

April 11th, 2016 at 2:10am

Spring has finally sprung and that means it’s goodbye neutrals and hello colors! Adjusting your closet to fit the season’s trends can be difficult, but this Fashionista knows how to do it right. Let’s take a look at the signature piece she is rocking, the incredibly versatile green jacket.

Instead of jumping right into the pastel craze, she dips her toes in and adds color in a delicate yet presentable manner. Green accent jackets have to be one of my favorite pieces. They are accessible, match with virtually anything and lightweight enough for all types of weather. Whether they come in military style or a more soft, cotton look as we see here, they become the focal point of the outfit. This Fashionista picked a style that complements her tall figure and pairs well with the bohemian, lacy shirt underneath. The best part about this jacket is the button accents located on the inner cuffs of her sleeves. Although they are hidden in most view, they add a subtle and sophisticated element to her look.

Being a lover of dark and simplistic tones, I can fully respect the green glam of this look. Some of us can’t pull off the fluffy textures or bright shades of pink, so we have to pay tribute to the spring season in our own manner. We tend to categorize jackets with the colder seasons, but the right one can be worn all year long. When picking out the perfect go-to jacket, take a play out of this Fashionista’s stylebook and embrace the grace of green.

WHAT IS YOUR STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “I think that jackets and jeans are my go-to choices when it comes to picking an outfit. I think you shouldn’t be afraid to wear something just because it may not be your exact style, you can still embrace it and wear it well.”
