Rocking Shades of Green This Holiday Season

There is something uniquely striking about the way redheads wear green. Perhaps it’s the contrast with our red hair that enhances its vibrancy, or maybe it’s the way it accentuates our eyes. Whatever the reason, the effect is undeniable, and it’s a sentiment that many redheads can agree on. We enjoy wearing green year-round, but it holds a unique appeal, particularly during the holiday season.

Dark green

During the winter, we often reach for those darker shades, and deep, dark greens are a stunning option. We love pairing dark green with colors like blue, brown, tan, and red! For redheads, dark green is incredibly flattering, as it complements the warmth of red hair and creates a striking contrast. Consider cozy knits, velvet dresses, or tailored jackets in rich green hues to add sophistication to your holiday wardrobe. Looking for some dark green pieces to add to your wardrobe?

Sage green

Lighter green shades are usually associated with spring and summer, but we adore them for winter. They look amazing with red hair and are incredibly flattering on fair-skinned redheads. They can be worn with other muted colors such as lavender, dusty pink, cream, and light shades of brown. For redheads, sage green offers a soft, ethereal quality that enhances natural warmth while feeling festive. Try incorporating sage into cozy sweaters, flowy dresses, or accessories like scarves and gloves for an effortlessly chic holiday look.

Emerald green

The standout shade of green for redheads is, hands down, emerald. We love emerald green for the holidays, especially around Christmas. Pair your emerald with white, bright red, tan, and black. This bold, jewel-toned color enhances the richness of red hair and adds a touch of glamour to any holiday outfit. Whether it’s a shimmering emerald dress, a statement coat, or sparkling accessories, this shade is perfect for standing out at festive gatherings.

Olive green

Try an olive green for a more muted shade that’s a little darker and more moody. This is a great color on all shades of red hair and pairs well with blues, mustard, burnt orange, tans, and grays! Olive green offers a cozy, earthy vibe for casual holiday looks or layered winter outfits. Redheads can lean into its versatility with cozy olive sweaters, chic midi skirts, or utility-style jackets. Add warm-toned accessories or gold accents to bring out the depth of this rich shade.
