Trend File: Gleam in green!

This autumn, as the leaves shed the green, make sure to incorporate this glorious colour into your look. The colour of love, splendour and the riches, green has been dubbed as one of fall 2013’s most wearable fashion trends by glamour.com. You can jazz your look up with neon green, go regal in emerald green or dazzle in sea green outfit — there’s a shade of green for every skin tone!

When you go green, we suggest you pair it with colours that wouldn’t take away its glory. Hues of green look best with neutral colours like black, white, gold and nude. This year, we observed a series of fashionistas glitter in green. These A-listers looked as fresh as the summer breeze in green outfits, accessories and shoes.

Irina Shayk, Sarah Hyland and Olivia Palermo

You can sport green formal wear like Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, who wowed in an anarkali with gold work at a jewellery store press meet this year. You can also wear a pair of green thong sandals for a casual outing. We absolutely love and recommend the black and green combo! You can wear a black outfit with emerald green earrings, a bib necklace and a ring and look absolutely smashing. In terms of make-up, the combinations of bold eyes-nude lips and vice versa, both complement a green ensemble, as singer Tulisa Contostavlos and actor Sarah Hyland portray, respectively. Base your make-up choices on what looks best on you. Like Deepika Padukone, you can look like a goddess in a teal-coloured long sleeve outfit with nude platform heels and loose waves. Or you can simply tie your hair in a neat bun and couple a green blazer with a monochromatic top, skinnies and a big clutch. When in the mood to go all-black with your outfit, carry a green bag like Cristiano Ronaldo’s current flame, Irina Shayk. It will look smoking hot! You can also go bold with neon green like When a Stranger Calls actor Camilla Belle did at the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund event this year.



Be it in whichever shade, don’t forget to glimmer in green!
