How To Wear The Color Chartreuse

Not green, not yellow, not quite neon, almost lime, but not really! The color of the wet leaves that just barely sprouted the day before, the color of the green apple just before it is ready to be picked, the color sophisticated and playful at he same time! Chartreuse is as much fun to say as it is to wear or look at. I fell in love with this color all over again when I saw Carey Mulligan in her Gatsby avatar in a chartreuse velvet gown on the cover of Vogue in April issue!

    I love Chartreuse! I have yet to find an amazing chartreuse e/s so I'm still looking. Mint is definitely an amazing spring/summer color :) xx

    Great tips - I find this a tricky colour to wear but it looks great with the cobalt skirt you've shown here!

    I have a chartreuse top, and all this time, I've always called it neon:D I love that Outnet top you picked.

    I love chartreuse. I definitely love it paired with the blue in the first outfit. Although I also kind of love the monochromatic look with a pop of color.

    Oh my Mom love the color Chartreuse but couldn't wear it well. She looked better in oranges, peach and yellow. I enjoyed this post. I think it is a hard color to pull off. Thanks for stopping over at my haunt. I like your blog.
