So maybe the Wizard of Oz was secretly a fashion guru when he chose to have an “emerald” city because the gem-colored shade is so “it” right now. It’s an easy way to trend into fall or look fabulous on the beach if you’re headed to a tropical location or live somewhere perpetually warm. Runways have been covered in different high-fashion looks featuring this shade but it’s easy to find accessories and even make up featuring the gorgeous green, so it’ll be easy to include no matter your taste or budget. Pantone named Emerald Green as the 2013 Color of the Year, so you know it’s a guaranteed fashion must-have.

You can tell in this collage of high-fashion names that Emerald Green is tearing up runways all over the world. One great thing about this shade is how flattering it can be on every skin-tone. Everyone is familiar with the stereotypical image of some red-haired Scottish beauty in green, but it looks amazing against dark skin and can downplay yellow tones in olive complexions. Simply find the right hue that is most complimentary for your skin as shades can vary from limey lighter greens to deep blue-based shamrock shades. Plus, if you will be somewhere warm, it’s easy to find adorable swimwear or cover-ups that feature this happening shade, like this turquoise-tinged two piece from L-Space or this classy one-piece by Seafolly.

It’s super easy to incorporate a pop of the sultry shade with gorgeous accessories if you’re not wanting a full-color outfit. Could there be a more perfect color to accentuate with at upcoming holiday parties? Also, it’s a beautiful shade to wear on your fingertips whether you prefer a solid wash of color or a trendier glitter or even matte finish. Plus, don’t think emerald green can’t do wonders for eyes. A funky pop of green eyeliner or a smoky wash of the shade over the entire lid can make your eyes really pop. You can have one delicate touch or an entire outfit of emerald, but this is one color guaranteed to make you shine like a gem!
