Endive | Isn’t that divine? I do believe that if I saw endive this color in the produce section I’d pass. Too much green to be ecru, not enough green to be celadon. |
Pantone says | A revitalizing yellow-green, adds freshness to this season’s top ten, and will enliven any wardrobe. Add it to Lagoon, Chocolate Truffle and Purple Orchid for an invigorating fall look. |
Priority Item | This color is a great neutral in small amounts. Find it in fur. If not the real thing, then by all means go for some petroleum-based faux-pseudo-un-fur fur product. Oh, come on, it’s just putting cheddar next to Velveeta. They look the same at a distance but one is organic and the other is chemical art. |
$ | Scan the flea markets for fur pieces and the fabric stores for remnants. A little will go a long way. Seriously. |
$$ | Update a suitable coat or jacket with a fur collar or fur-like scarf. Indoors, wear the scarf with a blouse or sweater and one of grandma’s pins. |
$$$ | Same as $$, and bump the quality. Do not go overboard on quantity or you will look like a blob of baby puke on its way to the park. |
$$$$ | You really don’t need our help to spend that much money. |
Caution | If you get your Endive next to a healthy dose of Woodbine and Oyster Gray you’ll likely get shipped to a war zone. That’s not a bad thing in and of itself but let’s face it, if you’re reading Art of Wardrobe you’re not likely prep’d for military action of the bullet variety. |
