Often referred to as ‘nature’s favorite color’ – green is the color of the hour here at GHID…
…And it doesn’t look like we’re the only ones who feel this way. Let’s take a look at a few prominent figures who are also drawn to this color trend.
Designers such as Kelly Wearstler, Vera Wang, Monique Lhuillier and Marc Jacobs have spurred the green trend in 2011. How beautiful were those emerald dresses at the Golden Globes?
The green fashions of 2011 have been absolutely stunning, popping up everywhere from gorgeous formal attire (as seen above) to accents in nail polish and jewelry. What’s great about this color is that it’s warm and inviting, not only in fashion, but interiors as well. Not to mention it’s everywhere here in the Northwest – so why not take advantage of our beautiful backdrop and bring the outdoors in?
Use potted plants (both natural and faux), throws, accents and pillows all in various shades of green as a fun pop of color. Or paint your wall one of the colors listed below. All of which are beautiful hues of green, and change in color depending on light and surroundings.
