Fall fashions are going emerald green
Emerald green is the color of money, envy, blackjack tables, Oz and a little bauble that Richard Burton gave to Elizabeth Taylor. This lush, lively and vibrant shade is also the 2013 Pantone color of the year (sorry, Tangerine Tango, but we’re over you), which is why you’ll need the right emerald green accessories to complete your Vegas look this fall. Turns out it’s not so hard being (emerald) green after all.
