Go Green
Ivy, forest, olive, emerald—from dusty neutral shades to vivid jewel tones, green is a great pick for summer outfits. Here are some of Fashion Fabrics Club’s favorite ways to go green this summer.
Slouchy Pants
Use linen or a silk and linen blend in a pair of slouchy cigarette pants. Perfect for traveling, lightweight enough for spending a day on the coast, or just lounging around the house with a good book on a rainy day.
Maxi Dress
Olive green acts like an easy neutral, it goes with just about everything. And the color is just as easy as a cotton jersey maxi dress—one simple toss-on with incredible impact. Especially when worn with gladiator sandals and statement jewelry.
Trench Vest
The volume of a full trench coat is too much for the summer, but when it’s sleeveless, it’s perfect. Especially in an ivy green linen over the simplest of summer outfits: jean shorts and a cotton tank.
Cotton Shorts
Your mind may go straight to denim when you think of summer shorts, but a mossy green cotton gives summer shorts a more ethereal feel. They’re that perfect essential piece, as at home with a T mowing the lawn as with wedges at a BBQ.
Chiffon Dress
Feeling fancy? Try an emerald green floral print chiffon dress. It’s at the same time playful and super sophisticated. Pair with some killer neutral heels and let the print be the focus.
