Thanks to Vera Wang, Reem Acra, and Lela Rose (pictured below), we're seeing 50 shades of green this season. And the virtual shelves are appropriately stocked with a cool verdant variety, making it all the easier to go green whenever the mood — and whimsy — strikes. Just remember to pair the hue with more neutral tones, like black, white, and camel, so that you don't run the risk of veering into Jolly Green Giant territory. We also love the idea of wearing a structured, printed green top with crisp shorts or a pencil skirt for a new take on office dressing. Ready to embrace Spring's green hue?

Red Carpet to Real Life: Julianne Moore Mixes Two Shades of Green
It's safe to assume that Julianne Moore has a deep love affair with green. And rightfully so because she looks smashing in it! The actress carried a big green bag at NYFW, a green clutch with her black-and-white Lanvin, and now she was spotted in a green Tom Ford dress in Washington DC. What makes this look so special is that it mixes two shades of the bold hue. But since it would be a hard one to pull off off the red carpet, we've created an inspired casual outfit that's more appropriate for everyday life. And it's timely with St. Patrick's Day around the corner. Start with a light-colored green top, like the silky one we've handpicked, and pair it with darker green pants. Finish off with gold footwear — heels or flats, take your pick — and a matching gold bag. This way you get Julianne's gorgeous two-tone look without ever having to step on the red carpet.
