Decide which shade of green best suits your coloring. Greens have a yellow or blue undertone. Hold up different tones and shades of colors against your face to see what complements you best. If you have blond hair, wear chocolate and green khaki, or greenish gray and black. Meanwhile, brunettes should wear navy blue and dark green, or olive green and white.
