Chartreuse

You may have never heard of the color chartreuse before, but I am sure you have seen it. Chartreuse is a color halfway between yellow and green. It was named after its resemblance to one of the French liqueurs, either green or yellow chartreuse (fun history fact). Anyway, I’m not here to rant about history, rather show you how I styled this in-between color. Because this color is so bold and loud, I kept it simple and paired it with a black blazer.

Do you own any chartreuse colored items?
