This, Not This: Vol. 19

Here’s how to update some of 2023’s hottest looks for the new year.

PISTACHIO GREEN not KELLY GREEN

Green was big for spring last year, but it was all about Bottega-green, a Kelly-adjacent shade popularized by Bottega Veneta. To freshen the hue, opt for a pistachio shade.
