 6 members like this. So the Spring 2013 Colors are out and I do believe I can successfully wear several:
In fact, bought an emerald sweater this morning (for my mother). And a pastel purple polo shirt. And blue shorts. I'm on a roll!!! ------

Won't it be fun to see how 20-25 women work this color into a garment? |

I did have an emerald green silk dress I loved STILL have it ready to be refashioned but not sure if colour suits me.

Date: 9/7/12 12:05 PM I love the colors, and the red on you is wonderful!! I didn't start wearing red until my late 30's--now I love it and wear it quite often. I feel so feisty in red. Emerald green is not my best color, but I could pull off the purple and yellow shades. ------

Date: 9/7/12 4:53 PM I think the names are throwing me off (or my monitor is wrong). The "emerald" looks like teal to me, and "linen" appears to be pink?
I just became a brunette again after 10 years as a redhead, and it's been a lot of fun experimenting with dramatic new colors. I'll wait to see how these trends play out in spring RTW. (I'm not even ready for fall clothes yet! LOL) ------

Date: 9/9/12 9:06 AM I see the same - emerald is teal and linen is pink. I wish there were a way for all monitors to show colors true - especially when you are stuck having to buy most fabric online! |
