How to Wear Olive Green: Easy Outfits and Colour Combinations

Olive green is an earthy neutral that works almost like khaki. Here is what to pair it with and outfit ideas for work and weekends.

NYVAZ olive green palazzo pants, skort and tie-neck top

Olive is a muted, earthy green. Because it is so soft, it behaves almost like a neutral, so you can wear it with many of the colours already in your wardrobe.

Colours that go with olive

  • White and cream: fresh and clean.
  • Black: sleek and modern.
  • Beige, tan and brown: a warm, earthy palette.
  • Pink and blush: a soft, pretty contrast.
  • Mustard and rust: rich autumn colours.

Olive bottoms

The Olive Green Wide Leg Palazzo Pants look crisp with the Classic White Formal Shirt for work. For a weekend outfit, the Olive Green Ruched Wrap Skort pairs well with a white crop top or a pink polo such as the Pink Contrast Collar Polo T-Shirt.

Olive tops

The Olive Green Tie-Neck Formal Top has a striped scarf neckline and works with black, beige or white trousers. For a fully tonal outfit, wear it with the olive palazzos.

Olive-adjacent shades

The Olive Brown Wide Leg Cargo Pants sit between green and brown and look great with cream tees and tan sneakers. The softer sage of the Sage Bloom Smocked Peplum Top is a lighter way to bring green into summer outfits.

Accessories

Gold jewellery, tan leather and white sneakers all suit olive. Avoid matching it with a different green unless you are going for a deliberate tonal look.
