I have surprisingly gotten a ton of use out of these olive green shorts since I've bought them (previously seen here ). I love how these high waisted shorts gives an outfit that dressier vibe without sacrificing comfort. Even though my Utah home is hitting the fall temps we are still hanging out in the high 90s in Phoenix. I attempt to dress for fall by pairing a light jacket over a strapless top.
I would have to say that as a brunette my favorite color on me is olive green. I love how olive green compliments my hair and skin tone during the fall months. As much as I love this color on me I surprisingly don't have a lot of this color in my closet. Total wardrobe shame if you ask me.
When you first look at olive green you may immediately think to pair it with a neutral such as cream, brown, white, and black. I am here to tell you that olive green can go with so much more!! A couple years ago I came across this color pairing guide in my Instyle magazine that broadened my olive color palette. Hopefully this guide will inspire you to become a little adventurous with color.
