Re: Pantone Color of the Year 2017 is: GREENERY

I never wear green,  not even if it's soft and leafy.   Just don't like it except in nature.

@151949. If you're a winter like me, try emerald green. I wear mostly black, white and grey, but if I do add a spot of color it has to a jewel tone...clear bright color.

@151949  Designers or whoever come up w/ these "off" colors have to know it's a hit or miss. We're all so different in coloring, it'd be impossible for all of us to look well in 1 color. Remember back about 5 yrs. ago when all the clothing stores had pastel sherbert colors? Even Cole Haan shoes? No? Well maybe you remember seeing most of all those clothes & shoes 50% off by the end of that season & then in outlets. Back to the drawing board.

Green is my favorite color, and I love that particular shade.

Green is OK in moderation. I have a  green leather skirt and a pair of pants in a color almost like the Pantene. I have a green leather dress on order from Lord & Taylor in what they call "forest green" which I'm thinking is a hunter green. I know I shouldn't wear just black.

This shade of green was popular several years ago. I bought a Piazza Gia crossbody bag in that color. Can't remember what year it was.

THAT is definitely green!

 

I do like green - forest, hunter, olive, and sage come to mind though...

If the color of 'greenery' was actually the color of natural greenery it would be nice. There's almost a hint of neon to this green
