The Rich-Looking Neutral Color I Keep Ordering Instead of Black

When we think of neutrals, the shades that come to mind are likely black, beige, camel, and perhaps brown. But I think there's one you should add to that list that's a bit less obvious but just as much of a wardrobe staple as the aforementioned colors: olive green. Olive is that rich-looking shade of green that's much murkier than kelly green but not as dark or cool-toned as forest green.
If an item is available in olive green, more often than not, that's the color I end up ordering. It looks chic with every other neutral as well as a variety of more vibrant hues. Brands have finally caught on to the appeal of olive green, as I'm seeing it more and more, from trousers and sweaters to shoes and bags. (Speaking of bags, an olive-green handbag is a very wise investment.)
If I've convinced you, keep scrolling to shop my favorite rich-looking olive-green pieces on the market right now. You'll want to thank me after you realize how often you wear them.
