02/15/13How to Wear Mint, That Tricky PastelIt's no secret that mint is one of the most popular colors from last year and is looking to continue its reign as the on-trend color. I'm seeing it more than I'm seeing emerald, Pantone's color for 2013. I first saw mint pop up last spring, and ever since then, I'd been looking for a pair of mint skinny jeans.

The Dress | Old Navy $20–$28 A little black dress is always in style for any party. I picked this cowl neck sweater dress from Old Navy for several reasons.
