The IT List: Mint Green

The IT List: Mint Green

Pastels are usually a spring fashion staple and this year is no exception, with one color in particular popping up on and off the runways. Mint green is proving that it looks good on more than just mint chip ice cream! From Vera Wang‘s high-end dresses to simple nail polishes, this hue is adding a fun freshness to the upcoming season. With its cool undertone, it complements any skin tone and we don’t see it going anywhere anytime soon. College Fashion and Fashion Bomb Daily both deemed it one of the top 5 Hot Color Trends for Spring 2012! Check out some of our favorite “minty” items and feel free to share you own!

From shoes to shirts to bags, it has never been easier to integrate color into your wardrobe. We love mint green paired with pale yellow or a light orange, but don’t forget to work in some neutral shades as well. You don’t want pastel overload!

To make this trend extra simple, we’ve included some of our favorite pieces for inspiration:
