Sofia Vergara got the right shade of green at the Emmy Awards this weekend
Green is a standout colour this coming season, but how can you incorporate this into your wardrobe and ensure that you get the right shade for your skin tone?
Wearing green, whether mint, olive or anything in between, you show creativity and imagination.
It was once thought to be unlucky, but in the world of fashion green brings some newness to your wardrobe.
With all its various shades, green may be used for virtually any garment from a winter coat to a fun mock-croc handbag.
To wear green successfully, you will need to understand the undertone (yellow or blue-based) and to know how this fits with your own colouring.
With tips from leading image consultant, Colour Me Beautiful, we have the tips on which green you should be wearing this coming season.
Which green to wear?
If you are light (light blonde hair and pale blue eyes) keep your greens as light as possible; wear on their own or mix with other shades from you palette to include light aquas and turquoises.
If you are deep (dark hair, dark eyes) you can wear the darkest green from bottle to pine, and olive too; you can mix any shades of your palette from dark on dark or dark and light.
If you are warm (think red head, freckles) greens are made for you as long as you keep to those with yellow undertones. Teals are great on you and so will bronze, moss and sage.
If you are cool (that's you if your hair is salt-and-pepper, silver or ashy blonde); your greens will be blue-based like spruce or pine.
If you are clear, you will have dark hair and bright jewel-like eyes and will look fabulous in all the teals, duckeggs and turquoises.
If none of the categories above are you, you may well be a soft (highlighted hair, muted eye) and you will want to wear your greens tone-on-tone and blended. Think jades, teals and grey-greens.
