Hot Color for Fall: Mustard

Chances are your closet is not overflowing with the color mustard, but if you want to add a bright, sophisticated color to your clothes this fall you may want to invest in a few key pieces.

Despite what you may think, mustard can be worn by almost anyone regardless of your skin tone and complexion. If your skin has a yellow base, opt for a pair of mustard trousers like the ankle grazer trousers below, and pair it with a smart navy cardigan and some pearl earrings. If you have fair skin or have darker skin, a mustard dress, like the one below, paired with a bright turquoise heel will look classic and timeless.

    A couple of years ago stores were full of clothing in a color very similar - then it all went on sale because people didn't buy it then--and probably won't now. This is a gross color that flatters very few complexions.

    I disagree w/ the last posted comment. This color which I personally prefer to call saffron, was worn by fashion icon Jacki Kennedy. It can make a nice accent with grey or brown IMO. I think it can be tricky to implement, but is very high fashion.
