HOT NEW HUE: LEMON & LIME

Posted August 15th, 2007 by usgirl
Yellow and green is such a naturally hot pairing! The two bold colors work well together because they're right next to each other on the spectrum.


Eva Longoria pairs her lemon-yellow dress with bright green pumps from Rickard Shah...Gisselle adds a splash of green to her ensemble with her clutch. You can do the same with my picks below.



Left to Right. Top: Jimmy Choo Heron £276.50 at Net-A-Porter UK; and Miu Miu satin mini clutch £145.00 at Net-A-Porter UK. Middle: Kena Kai croc embossed clutch $125.99 at ebags.com; Kenneth Cole's Seafoam satin slingbacks $150.00 at Blue Fly; Shiraleah velvet fan clutch only $36.00 at ebags.com and ; Guiseppe Zanotti aloe satin crystal sandals $221.99 at Bluefly. Bottom: Topshop's sharp pointed metallic flat £25.00; Lanvin satin evening bag with stone £590.00 at Brown's Fashion and; Kate Spade's Montserrat Jocelyn clutch $325.00 at Nordstroms.


Left to Right: Milly Dress $445.00 at Bergdorf Goodman; Forever 21's Racerback Tank (not pictured)$8.80 is a great alternative!; and Nina Ricci's Floral Cocktail Dress is $2,890.00 on Net-A-Porter.
