How to Wear Mint Green Pants

My boyfriend always asks me what my favourite colour is and I never had an exact answer for him until now - mint green! Coloured denim remains a strong trend in retail stores and fashion runways alike, but it's all about pastels for this upcoming season. Mint green is just one of the light, airy shades that is gaining popularity in the blogosphere. Here are 3 ways and some suggestions on how you can rock this trend.

Style #1: Bohemian Luxe
An easy going pairing for mint green pants is a delicate crochet top and neutral accessories. Experiment with layering different textures, but keep your accessories understated to avoid looking like a mess of patterns.
















Style #2: Trendsetter 
If you are more of a trendsetter, here is a look incorporating some key items this season. The cut out shoulder blouse with embellished collar is edgy, but light enough to compliment your mint green skinnies. Add some colourful coral flats (great colour to pair with mint), a statement ring and cat-eye sunnies and you are ready for a stroll through the city.


Style #3: Head to Toe
Monochromatic looks are daring, but this look helps break down the obstacle of being head to toe in mint green. Use bold neutral accessories like a white patent belt or black suede pumps to add visual separation. Also consider pairing a lighter fabric on top if your pants are a thicker denim. 



Will you be sporting a pair of these trendy skinnies?
