Green Stretch Crepe Jacket
We feel it too: That disheartening moment when you’re getting dressed and everything you reach for in your closet is a shade of gray, black, brown or navy blue. But mostly black and gray.
The winter wardrobe blahs have officially set in. Nothing sparks joy, to quote Marie Kondo.
We are in need of a morning closet ritual makeover to add a little happiness to getting dressed. Solution: Add some vivid pieces that are rich in color -- jewel tones like sapphire, emerald, ruby and amethyst, plus a little citrine yellow -- to mix in with those basics, and brighten up your mood.

When it comes to dressing in these saturated colors, there are various degrees of commitment, from an accent piece to a sweeping dress in deep emerald green.
Whether it’s a scarf, sweater, skirt or pant, everything else you own will look better when paired with these jewels. And you won’t regret these purchases, since they start as low as $24 and nothing hits the triple digits.

ASOS DESIGN Curve off shoulder wrap midi dress with tie detail

Instead of showing up to an event in another little black dress, go for one in emerald, a color that is just as classy but even more on trend (perhaps because it's one of Meghan Markle's favorites). With hidden structure at the neck to keep that architectural off-the-shoulder aesthetic, this is a perfect choice if you want to comfortably show off your curves. Style Hint: Pair it with black or metallic sandals to bring out the rich green hue. Green is a color that will still be on trend all spring, so no need to put it away with the coats once flowers start to bloom.

We love the cinched belt that adds a super flattering detail. Style Hint: Since this color is so bold, keep shoes and accessories quiet, so the jumpsuit is the star of the show.
