Poppin’ in Peplums

by Ann Whitbeck on March 15, 2012

Chartreuse has come a long way from its’ days of oh-no-she-didn’t wear that color! You can’t walk into a store without seeing this  striking love child of green and yellow! And we bet that by the end of this Spring you’ll own a chartreuse-something

Now this color is not for the faint of heart, but the impact is worth the courage in my book. I love it when basic pieces, like this sweater from Zara, take on a whole new life in such unexpected colors. It puts a not-so-sweet twist to a lovely floral print!

And talk about wow factor…even a chartreuse colored t-shirt or a basic shirt dress from Old Navy screams style (yes, with confidence and charm) and spring! Or if you are less thrilled about the idea of wearing this color in large doses…why not try chartreuse accessories like this crossbody bag from Steve Madden?

And as the temperatures rise, so should your colors…ladies, set your chartreuse loose!
