I don't hate it.  I can't say I'd ever buy an Olive dress or jacket, tank top maybe, for fall wear.    QVC does seem to be pushing it down our throats at every opportunity.

I like to wear olive green....but refuse to have it in the designs in our home.  And no way would I paint the house olive; inside or outside.

I use a lot of olive green in home decor and clothing.  I'm wearing it now, crop pants.  Love it.

I absolutely would never buy or paint anything olive green. It's always been a mystery to me as to why anyone would want it. I rarely see it worn here so maybe it's a regional thing in other parts of the country. Yuck!

That's because it's Gary Goben's favorite color. He talks about his "olive club".

Years and years ago, I had a beautiful lime-ish green (not olive) carpet installed in a spare room.  Then, I had drapes made to order to match.  BIG, BIG mistake!  'Way, way too much' green. Made me feel 'queasy' every time I entered that room.

Kittymom, The Suggestible One (me) did check out the Enabler's suggestion.  I do like it, had it in my cart, but I am not sure when I would wear it.  I may still get it

Ratz.  I forgot I could have quoted you on this laptop

It's not in my color palette to wear (very wrong for my coloring) and I don't like it anyway.

No.  I don't like it at all.  I don't care for drab colors.

I like it as a neutral............there's not just ONE olive green........different shades or tones...........just like beiges or ecrus or even whites aren't all the same..........I wouldn't choose all of those for home decor or painting but some are attractive.............
