Teal Is The Best

Teal is generally sold as a summer color, but I love it year 'round. In fact, teal and burgundy are my favorite neutrals. Yes, neutral. From the bright to darker ends of the spectrum, I consider the shade a wardrobe staple.

Teal can be cute and happy.
Cherry Flavored


It can be mixed seamlessly with fall colors.
Orange Cognac


Walking to Class


It adds a bright pop to a staid outfit.

Alternately, for an unexpected style, you can mix it with neon which makes the teal look very basic.
