Pastel shades are now in special demand among fashionistas, and the most popular is noted for mint color. What are the dresses in this color and what is important to know before buying?
Who is it for?
Surprisingly, mint shades will suit every girl. However, depending on the color of the hair, you need to choose your own mint color tone.
Blondes are more likely to use bright colors, for example, with an emerald or turquoise accent, and red-haired girls and brunettes should stop by buying a dress of a more muted mint shade.
Length
The length and style of mint dresses are very diverse, so you can easily choose an outfit for 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 this dress with stylish sandals or a hairpin, as well as accessories in tone, and you can go on a date.
Midi
A dress of a shade of mint of medium length from satin or chiffon is suitable for a romantic meeting. A mint knee-length dress with a trapeze skirt or a wide skirt also looks attractive.
A short
Simple and comfortable mint cocktail dresses will help to create a stylish feminine look for special events.
No less popular are everyday options for mini dresses in mint color. In cool weather they can be supplemented with a denim or leather jacket.You can also wear a short jacket of blue or coral color with a mint mini dress.
Color combinations
A fairly wide range of shades is combined with mint tones from classic black and delicate pink to deep blue and calm gray. Let's look at such combinations in more detail.
With black
In this combination, mint has to play a secondary role, giving primacy to black. If you allow 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 “mint and white” looks bright, radiant and bright. 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 turn out not too expressive. In addition, a combination of beige and mint can also add a golden or silver color.
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 emphasizes the brightness of their hair.
With pastel colors
Peppermint blends wonderfully with the whole pastel range. For example, the combinations “mint + peach” or “mint + soft pink” look very gentle and fresh. The dress, in which the mint is combined with gray, looks calm and neutral. Looks good mint tone with related shades - light green or light blue.
Another nice and unusual combination is mint and lilac.
With bright colors
If the tone of your mint dress is bright, then it will be wonderful to combine with a bright pink tint, fuchsia, bright yellow or orange tones. Such combinations of shades are perfect for a party, a trip to a cafe and other interesting events where you need a spectacular and vibrant look.
With blue, blue
This combination looks pretty attractive and calm. At the same time, the mint tone transforms its dark and nondescript companion, making blue very juicy.
With sleeve
Since dresses of mint color are most often in demand in the spring and summer, their sleeve is either short or completely absent.
Models of mint dresses with thin straps are very common. In this case, the absence of sleeves is compensated by the use of a jacket or jacket.
Lush
A mint-colored outfit with a voluminous skirt is often chosen for important events, for example, for graduation or wedding. This dress can be both short and to the floor.
Magnificent mint dresses are created from tulle, organza, taffeta and other elegant fabrics. Accessories suitable for the occasion are selected for them, for example, white gold jewelry.
Lacy
Dress in mint color with lace is also a wonderful outfit for the holiday. It looks airy and very elegant.
For such a mint dress, you should carefully choose stylish shoes and accentuating accessories, as well as a romantic hairstyle.
What to wear?
- Do not wear accessories to match the mint color dress, as they will simply be lost and the image will be blurry.
- The best addition to a mint dress is considered to be beige accessories, a snow-white jacket, as well as a thin brown strap.
- With bright accessories for a mint dress, you should be careful. If you go too far with bright color, it will degrade the perception of your stylish look.
Accessories
The choice of accessories for mint dresses is quite large. They are represented by scarves, bags, shawls, light hats, sunglasses and many other details.
A wonderful addition to mint dresses will be precious metals, for example, a thin chain around the neck, silver or gold earrings-carnations, thin rings, pendants with turquoise or zirconium.
In the absence of expensive jewelry, a mint dress can be complemented with high-quality jewelry in a golden hue with green stones.
Shoes
Pick the shoes for the 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 ballet shoes.
Such shoes can be represented in any shade of green, emerald shade, ivory or coffee tone.
Do not forget that the tone of the handbag should be the same.
Makeup
Having planned to create a romantic image with a mint dress, makeup should be gentle and light. Bright lipstick is inappropriate here, so you should confine yourself to a shine with a pink tint or completely colorless.
We also note that the best mint dress will look on tanned skin, so you need to pay special attention to skin tone. Dark-skinned girls will not need blush, and in the presence of pale skin it is recommended to revive it with soft pink blush. In the makeup itself, the dress in mint colors should be preferred to a cold palette. Silver shades can be called a universal option, especially if accessories to the outfit (bracelet, shoes, clutch and others) will also be in silver color.
The lightness of the mint tone requires emphasis on the expressiveness of the eyes, and the neat black arrows will be the classic solution.
For daytime activities, you can choose emerald or turquoise eyeliner. With it you will look elegant, but avoid too much emphasis on your eyes.
Mascara should only be black, so leave experiments with the color scheme of the mascara for other outfits.
Manicure
Under a mint dress, especially for tanned hands, it is recommended to choose a pale 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 nice on a turquoise background). In addition, in manicure under a mint dress, you can use beige, pink or lilac varnish.
Mint dress is very blonde. We immediately become more expressive and tender in a dress of this color.
