Since designers Marc Jacobs and Proenza Schouler featured mint in their collections this season, mint colored clothing and accessories are everywhere and have become total fashionista must-haves!  To keep you on top of this great trend, we’ve put together a few items to show you how to incorporate mint into your wardrobe.  Pay attention because this trend is here to stay.


Around Town

When you’re headed out around town, try pairing mint skinnies with your favorite crop top, sandals, and your favorite mint accessories.  Colorful denim is super in this season and you’ll be right in style!
