honestly, we're all susceptible to falling prey to fashion's fickle trends. which is fine, as long as you're able to muster enough objectivity to pick and choose which ones work for you (thus avoiding victim-hood), and to wear them in a way that's unique to you. happily, there are sometimes trends that work for everyone ~ and this season, olive green is the one!

if you think about it, olive really is the new black (as is its sister color, camel!). it's a hard-working neutral ~ universally flattering, it pairs seamlessly with nearly every color and print in your wardrobe. good thing it's everywhere right now ~ and available at every price.

personally, i've been working it into my wardrobe pretty aggressively over the past week...
