What can you wear with green pants?
When it comes to styling a pair of green pants, the options are endless. Depending on the style of your pants you can keep it casual with a denim jacket, neutral t-shirt, and sneakers. Or, dress them up with heels, a nice blouse, and a leather jacket.
Finding ways to wear green pants can be a lot of fun when you compliment them with chic neutrals, other green hues, and wardrobe basics.
What colour goes well with green pants?
Green pants go great with a multitude of colors and shades, but the best option (in ouropinion) is neutrals. You can never go wrong with the basics:
- black
- white
- beige
- ivory
- taupe
- tan
Green pants can also go well with colors, but we think it’s ideal to choose more subdued colors rather than bold ones. The following colors are best:
- green (in a complimentary shade to the green pants)
- navy
- pink
While you can wear bright, bold colors with green pants, it’s can be a challenge to find the right balance. So, unless you are confident rocking an outfit like this, we suggest sticking to the colors above to start with!
