HOW TO WEAR PANTONE’S COLOR OF 2017: GREENERY

The Steele Maiden: How to wear Pantone's Color of 2017 - Greenery

Each year, Pantone dubs a particular shade their color of the year and for 2017 they’ve named ‘Greenery’ – a bright, lush shade of green meant to represent the comfort and reassurance of nature during an otherwise tumultuous political and social climate. While I typically don’t wear a lot of the color green I love the thought behind the shade this year and whether it’s bringing in more live plants to our apartment (these little pots would be cute in a row) or adding small doses mixed with neutrals in my wardrobe (this shift dress does a great job at mixing in other colors), I’m definitely going to be finding ways to incorporate the hue. Below – a few top picks.

CUTE ACTIVEWEAR WITH AERIE

The Steele Maiden: New Year Workout Routine + Cute Activewear with Aerie

How are those New Year’s resolutions going friends? While I don’t really subscribe to the whole crash diet starting January 1st mindset, I love using a new year as a chance to raise the bar for myself when it comes to my usual routine. This time it’s another half marathon in the spring. Gulp. But as always in life, a cute outfit doesn’t hurt the efforts.

STRIPED TEE AND BLUE VELVET HEELS

The Steele Maiden: Winter Blues - Blue Trousers, Velvet Heels and Striped Tee

Before I they called it Seasonal Affective Disorder (or SAD) – I think they just called it the Winter Blues. From which I most definitely suffer. Between the seemingly endless cold, grey days and the fact that it’s dark by 4:30PM, the winter months always leave me feeling generally a bit lackluster. So my best defense? Force myself to get outside and take advantage of any and all sun, while wearing something happy. Which for me, ironically, means the color blue.

WINTER BASICS: FISHERMAN SWEATER AND BLACK DENIM

The Steele Maiden: Winter Basics in Fisherman Sweater and Black Denim

This time of year I find myself reaching for winter basics more than anything else. Blame it on the post-holiday blues, a busy work schedule or the biting cold, but I just can’t seem to be bothered with things other than closet staples in the month of January. That’s fine by me though when it involves things like my favorite black denim or this new fisherman sweater I’d been searching for ages to find.

WINTER LAYERS: PLAID COAT AND WHITE MIDI SKIRT

The Steele Maiden: Winter Layers in Plaid Coat, White Midi Skirt and pink sweater

If you live anywhere in the Northeast, then you know that it’s cold right now. Like bone chilling cold. After spending most of Saturday running around Central Park in the snow, slipping and sliding.. and taking quite a few snowballs in the line of fire between Adam and his brother… the weather took a serious turn towards unbearable on Sunday. Which means lots of blankets, cups of tea, and when I MUST outside – layers.
