Mint dress: a touch of freshness in the image
Pastel shades are now in special demand among fashionistas, and the most popular is the mint color. What are the dresses in this color and what is it important to know about before buying?
Who is it suitable for?
Surprisingly, mint shades will suit every girl. However, depending on the hair color, you need to choose your own mint tone.
Blondes prefer bright colors, for example, with an emerald or turquoise accent, while red-haired girls and brunettes should stop at buying a dress in a more muted mint shade.
Length
The length and style of mint dresses are very diverse, so you can easily choose an outfit to match your figure.
Long to the floor
Such dresses have not lost their relevance for several summer seasons. They can be silk, chiffon, satin or cotton.
In mint color, long dresses look light and romantic. Complement such a dress with stylish sandals or stiletto heels, as well as matching accessories, and you can go on a date.
Midi
A mid-length mint-colored dress made of satin or chiffon is perfect for a romantic date. A knee-length mint dress with an A-line skirt or wide skirt also looks attractive.
A short
Simple and comfortable, mint cocktail dresses can help create a stylish, feminine look for special occasions.
Casual options for mini dresses in mint color are no less in demand. In cool weather, you can complement them with a denim or leather jacket.You can also wear a short blue or coral jacket with a mint mini dress.
Color combinations
A fairly wide range of shades from classic black and delicate pink to deep blue and calm gray are combined with mint tones. Let's take a closer look at such combinations.
With black
In such a combination, the mint has to play a secondary role, giving the supremacy to the black. If we assume the opposite situation, when the main tone is mint, and black acts as an addition, then you run the risk of getting a disproportionate and inharmonious image.
With white
The combination of mint and white looks bright, radiant and light. This is the perfect summer combination, to which you no longer need to add any other shades. However, if you want to dilute this fresh "duet", silver or golden color will be successfully combined with it.
With beige
Such a union looks solid and discreet, but requires the addition of a large white accessory, otherwise the image will not turn out too expressive. In addition, a golden or silver color can also be added to the combination of beige with mint.
With brown
This combination is one of the most successful. At the same time, dark brown as a companion to mint will look better on brunette girls, as it will emphasize the brightness of their hair.
With pastel colors
Mint goes well with the entire pastel palette. For example, combinations "mint + peach" or "mint + soft pink" look very gentle and fresh. A dress in which mint is combined with gray looks calm and neutral. Looks good mint tone with related shades - light green or light blue.
Another cute and unusual combination is mint with lilac.
With vibrant colors
If the tone of your mint dress is bright, then it will be great to combine with a bright pink, fuchsia, bright yellow or orange tones. Such combinations of shades are well suited for a party, going to a cafe and other interesting events where a spectacular and vivid image is needed.
With blue, blue
This combination looks pretty attractive and calm. At the same time, the mint tone transforms its dark and nondescript companion, making the blue very juicy.
With sleeve
Since mint-colored dresses are most often in demand in the spring and summer, their sleeves are either short or absent altogether.
Models of mint dresses with thin spaghetti straps are very common. In this case, the absence of sleeves is compensated by the use of a jacket or jacket.
Lush
An outfit in mint color with a voluminous skirt is often chosen for important events, for example, for a prom or a wedding. This dress can be either short or to the floor.
Lush mint dresses are created from tulle, organza, taffeta and other elegant fabrics. They are matched with accessories suitable for the occasion, such as white gold jewelry.
Lace
A dress in mint color with lace is also a wonderful outfit for a holiday. It looks airy and very elegant.
For such a mint dress, you should carefully choose stylish shoes and shading accessories, as well as a romantic hairstyle.
What to wear with?
- You should not wear matching accessories to a mint-colored dress, as they will simply be lost and the image will be blurry.
- The best addition to the mint dress is considered to be beige accessories, a snow-white jacket, as well as a thin brown strap.
- Be careful with bright accessories for a mint dress. Overdoing it with a bright color will degrade the perception of your stylish look.
Accessories
The choice of accessories for mint-colored dresses is quite large. They are represented by scarves, bags, shawls, light hats, sunglasses and many other details.
Precious metals, for example, a thin chain around the neck, silver or gold stud earrings, thin rings, pendants with turquoise or zirconium, will be a wonderful addition to mint outfits.
In the absence of expensive jewelry, a mint dress can be supplemented with high-quality gold-tone jewelry with green stones.
Shoes
Choose shoes for a mint-tone dress to your taste, because with such an outfit they will look good:
- high-heeled shoes;
- clogs;
- leather sandals with many straps;
- lace boots;
- elegant ballerinas.
Such shoes can be presented in any shade of green, emerald, ivory or coffee.
Do not forget that the tone of the handbag should be the same.
Makeup
Having planned to create a romantic look with a mint dress, the makeup should be gentle and light. Bright lipstick is inappropriate here, so you should limit yourself to gloss with a pink tint or completely colorless.
We also note that a mint-colored dress will look best on tanned skin, so special attention should be paid to the skin tone. Dark-skinned girls will not need blush, and if you have pale skin, it is recommended to revive it with pale pink blush.In the very makeup for a dress in mint tones, you should give preference to a cold palette. Silver shades can be called a universal option, especially if accessories for the outfit (bracelet, shoes, clutch, and others) are also in silver.
The inconspicuousness of the mint tone requires emphasizing the expressiveness of the eyes, and neat black arrows are the classic solution.
For daytime activities, you can opt for emerald or turquoise eyeliner. With it, you will look elegant, but avoid unnecessary emphasis on the eyes.
Mascara should only be black, so leave experiments with the color scheme of mascara for other outfits.
Manicure
For a mint dress, especially for tanned hands, it is recommended to choose a delicate turquoise color of varnish. This shade of varnish is successfully combined with white and delicate yellow.
Rhinestones, lace, nail art can serve as decor (pink flowers look very beautiful on a turquoise background). In addition, in a manicure under a mint shade, you can use beige, pink or lilac varnish.
The mint dress is very suitable for blondes. We immediately become more expressive and gentle in a dress of this color.
