18 Winter Outfits with Dark Green for Christmas Style Inspiration

I will be posting Christmas season outfit inspiration Mon, Tues, Thurs, and Fri of this week (with Style Imitating Art on Wed).


Green outfit idea posts: green + black, bright green.



Today's focus is on shades of dark green: forest green, hunter green, pine green, evergreen...all the green colors with a rich depth of color.


Green is a great Christmas color that doesn't have to be paired with black to be effective. Other neutrals, semi-neutrals, and accent colors can work well in a green holiday season outfit. Use green as a dominant color or as a pop of color against a neutral background. Incorporate seasonal textures like suede, velvet, faux fur, tweed, leather, and sweater knits...or not. Go all-in with touches of red and/or Christmas motif prints/jewelry or keep the nod to the season more subtle.


Here are 18 outfits from my previous OOTD with dark green suitable across a range of temperatures/weather and occasions for some Christmas season outfit inspiration. (Of course this color works outside the holiday season, too...so pin any outfits for future inspiration.)

Do you wear dark green? Do you prefer warmer (more yellow) or cooler (more blue) versions of the color?

Dark green and dark teal are ideal colors for winter outfits. Your color combinations are spot-on for creating beautiful winter outfits. Thank you for sharing this post in the Talent-Sharing Tuesdays Link-Up 46.

OK, it's time to come clean. You actually have one of those closets like Cher had in "Clueless," right...the one that makes up your outfits for you and keeps track of them!!! Hahahaha! I love how much oomph you can get out of one item, Sally! You are amazing!

Sadly, the Cher closet is a bit out of my reach financially ;) But I do have a heck of a good spreadsheet system for tracking!

I do wear dark green; I tend to love all shades of blue and green but find myself wearing the dark green in fall and winter the most.

Yes, there's something about dark green this time of year that just feels right - maybe the connection to the dark evergreen trees or just that dark clothing is common/practical in winter.
