How to wear the Olive Green Dress and stand out in an event
An olive green dress, combined with the ideal shoes, will make you look like the best dressed in any event.
Accessorizing your outfits are the true fashionista test, they make the difference, having the ability to change the meaning of a look, just by adding or removing, a clear example is the shoes. If you ever saw Sex and the City you noticed how Carrie gave her shoes great prominence in her outfits, how to forget her precious blue Manolo Blahnik. Among her many fashion lessons, she taught us how to create an outfit, balancing the importance between shoes and the rest of the garments. Following in her footsteps, this time we will talk about how the olive green dress can be your great ally in the next event if you add some impact shoes.
Olive Green Dress Guest Look
An olive green dress can be your best option for the next meeting or party you attend this time of the year. One of the qualities of this color is that it is flattering for most skin types, although it can be classified as somber or even opaque, its versatility allows it to be combined with shades such as orange, pink, brown, white, and why not, black.
This shade can serve as a 'neutral' color, without falling into the traditional black or white, to which we can add vibrant colors in trend. In the same way, we can go for designs that are on the rise, whether it is the cut-out, a lingerie dress, long blazers, mini or asymmetrical cuts. Recently, shades of green have been chosen as an experiment for combinations that might seem impossible, such was the case of the mix between green and Klein blue, fuchsia, or red. As you can see, this color is easier to combine than you could imagine, the important thing is that you find the pairing that suits your style and the occasion.
Our recommendations to get the perfect guest look are to combine the olive green dress with colors like lilac or orange, you can leave the vibrant tone for the shoes or bag, so as not to overload the outfit, keep the other accessories in metallic shades such as silver, gold or also neutral as nude or white.
The shoes you choose will depend a lot on the type of event you are going to attend, if you like to be comfortable, or if you are looking for a high-heeled sandal that will add a little height. Wide heels are suitable for daytime and outdoors, leave the stilettos for formal occasions at night and indoors.
If you have identified the garments that go with you, harmonize your outfits will not be a problem, if not, we suggest you take a look at your closet to locate which are the styles in shoes or dresses that are most repeated, this will help you to know what kind of designs you sometimes choose unconsciously. With this when choosing a dress or shoes you will be able to know if you like to wear a simple cut dress and add all the style to the shoes, or vice versa.
