With St. Patrick’s Day behind us and Earth Hour coming up this weekend (27 March), we’ve put together a list of the hottest green fashion items to (literally) go green this year. From lime and chartreuse to emerald and forest green, here’s how to rock the latest colour trend for SS21:

This cropped cross-body knit and matching buttoned knit skirt is a bold yet comfortable choice, and a great way to ease back into normal dressing after months of lockdown. Crafted from emerald-green and black mélange yarns, the top also features a sweetheart neckline and close-fitted sleeves. Pair your ensemble with neutral footwear (pumps for a dressier occasion or lace-up sandals for the day).

There is nothing run-of-the-mill when it comes to Nadine Ghosn’s label. Her fine jewellery designs have been spotted on stylish celebs such as Beyonce and Alicia Keys, and her latest collection, Build Blocks, is a nostalgic and fun take on our beloved childhood game of Lego. We have our eyes set on the Bare Block Ring in Jade and a Green Forest Topaz. And, just like the building blocks, stacking is definitely encouraged.
