Everyone knows pastels are popular for spring, but wearing army green in spring is much less expected. As I think about what people wear in spring, I’m reminded of one of my favorite Devil Wears Prada scenes, “florals for spring? Groundbreaking.” This quote cracks me up because it’s how I feel about wearing pastels in spring.  Although I love pastels, it really IS expected and not at all groundbreaking. But what about wearing army green in spring? Can you get behind it?For a lot of people, spring brings a sense of renewal, so florals, bright or pastel colors enliven their wardrobes. The thing about living in Phoenix is that I often wear bright colors year-round, so I don’t mind wearing darker colors in spring.If you feel like army green in spring is just too dark, then throw on a bright piece to balance the darker color. I chose to dress up my army green skirt with a peplum navy top and suede shoes. My look definitely has more of a fall feel, but it would be easy to change up my look by adding a really brightly colored shoe or blouse.I personally love how the navy looks with the army green because it almost creates a monochromatic look that is ultra slimming and streamlined. I added a really bold necklace to create some visual interest since the blouse is so simple.If you want to wear army green in spring, it shouldn’t be hard to find. I’ve seen tons of army green slacks, cropped pants, and skirts in stores near me, not to mention a lot of military-inspired jackets. If you like my skirt, it’s currently on sale!{Stacey’s Look: Ann Taylor Skirt and Top; Penny Lane Necklace (similar); Gucci Sunglasses; Banana Republic Shoes (similar); Chloe Purse; Cuff (similar)}
