There&#8217;s been a growing trend in the fashion world towards the use of green garments for both men and women. Why is green becoming so popular among in mainstream fashion? This is a question that we&#8217;re going to tackle in today&#8217;s blog post.<\/p>\n<p>One of the reasons why green is back in style is because it&#8217;s a semi-bold color that offers a delicate balance of class and boldness. It&#8217;s not quite as over-the-top as yellow or fire-orange, but it&#8217;s also not as dull as gray. Green is unique in the sense that it&#8217;s bold, yet still classy enough to wear as part of a formal outfit. Of course, this is really just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the benefits of wearing green.<\/p>\n<p>Another reason why green fashion is back has to do with the time of year. Green has largely been associated with the cool fall\/autumn months, which is why retailers tend to release green-colored garments around this time. This is particularly true when speaking of men&#8217;s wear, some of which may include green button-up shirts, sweaters, vests, and even corduroy pants.<\/p>\n<p>But if you are going to wear green, there are a few things you should know. As noted in an article published by TheGuardian, it&#8217;s best for guys to limit the use of greens in a single outfit. There&#8217;s nothing wrong with wearing a green shirt or pants, but including too many different green garments in your outfit will leave you looking like a shrub. TheGuardian also recommends keeping your greens muted, meaning it shouldn&#8217;t be the focal point of your outfit.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;First, don\u2019t wear lots of different greens in one outfit unless\u00a0you want to look like a shrub in a modern interpretive dance, or a\u00a0member of the TA,<\/em>&#8221; wrote <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/fashion\/2015\/sep\/06\/men-fashion-green-style-autumn-2015\">TheGuardian<\/a>. &#8220;<em>Second, keep your greens muted. Olive and bottle and khaki \u2013 not the sort of vivid Subbuteo-pitch green which will make you appear very &#8216;up for it&#8217; at a student Traffic Light party<\/em>.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Something else to consider when wearing green is your choice of footwear. How do your shoes flow with the green color? Thankfully, brown\/tan colors tend to work well with green, as well as white. Black, on the other hand, may clash with your green garment(s), so it&#8217;s usually a good idea to avoid wearing black shoes.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>What are your thoughts on green fashion?
