1. This lush hue pairs perfectly with the hair color trend of the year: Red.  (still amazing on brunettes and blondes)

2. Emerald is flattering on all skin tones: Wear it in a radiant emerald leather skirt, button up shirt, or 60s inspired dress.

3. Emerald is a lovely spring makeup trend in 2013.  Seen worn across the lid, as a bold liner, or under the lower lash line.

4. Gems are a girls best friend.

5. Emerald City: Emerald made Pantone color of the Year the same year the blockbuster hit Oz the Great and Powerful was released. Coincidence?
