IT'S NOT EASY BEING GREEN
Fashion Director KATHERINE RIVERA
shares her love for the color green this fall!
H
i, readers! I hope
all of you have had
extraordinary summers
involving
beaches, beaches,
and more beaches.
Where did the summer go?! I feel Memorial Day was just yesterday and we
were getting our barbecues up and running for a cookout. Time truly flies when
you’re having a lot of fun. Nevertheless,
who said fall and fall style couldn’t be
fun? Fall becomes fun when pumpkin
spice latte makes its return to its rightful
place on the coffee throne. It becomes
fun when the leaves begin to change
and you hear the crunching of leaves
under your feet. It also becomes fun
when jungle green becomes a primary
player in the fall palette. I love jungle
green primary because it is so versatile
and mixes so well with browns, blacks,
and plum purples, which are many colors that designers are incorporating in
the fall color scheme this season. Kermit
the Frog once sang that it wasn’t easy
being green. To that I reply: how can it
not be when it’s so central in a fashionista’s way of dressing for autumn? Jungle
green, to me, is a strong and tough color
that can definitely hold its own weight.
Give it a try this season!
Love,
Katherine
