Can green be a neutral?
Jump to Comments
When it’s as subdued as it is in these jeans, I’d say so.
I always wear brown as a neutral. And I tend to layer it. Like here, in the three different shades of my belt, my vest and my cardigan.
Quite the earthy colour palette, isn’t it?
A little less earthy? My shbooties. They’re pure city.
So the only question is: can this pose be any more posey? Ummmm, doubt it.

Dear Kelsey,
I tag you with the “Over the Top” award. So you have to answer a few questions with one word and then hand the award over to others.
Cheers.
Questions are there : http://lafloreetlafaune.blogspot.com/2009/09/paulette-et-rhonda-et-sartorialist.html

Sofia — Favourite? Really?!?! Why, thank you.
Quelle — no, I didn’t end up shoe shopping. But I still need black boots. Yeesh.
Miriam — seriously. It’s a bit out of control.
La Flore — let’s try a limerick:
There once was an illustrator from France
Who I bet wears really nice pants
Gave the Anthology an award
And proclaimed “Oh my word”
So I just wanted to say “thanks”
Gerri — Elegant aaaand edgy? Thank you!

Really love the pants. That particular shade is really nice and ‘earthy’ ;-)

Olive green is one of my favourite neutrals too. It’s got just enough oomph to look good with denim and black but is subdued, just as you said.

Kelsey, you can do no wrong. love the outfit! I think olive green does count as a neutral, at least to me haha. I love the draping of the vest and of course your gorgeous shbooties :) cute bag too!

Yes- your pose could be more pose-y ;) If you put your hand on your hip. And did a fish face. I love you in the layers of autumn. And your shbooties.
