Even though I have green eyes I have a problem wearing greens. I can wear olive, but nothing too yellow or chartruese.

I wonder if this may be easier to wear than a solid green due to the pattern and other colours in it? x

I'm far from being Angie, but I have the same issue with yellow-green colors.
I've read that it has more to do with your skin tone than your hair or eye color.
My skin is yellowish, and any yellow based color makes me look like a zombie.
If you have the same skin tone, try emerald green or blue green, they should look much better.

Anna, do you mean the green dress or the olive cardigan? You look sensational in olives and cool browns.

Quite right. You look better in muted cool tones, and the opposite to what looks best on me- yet we are both green eyed blondes with fair skin. It's so interesting

Could work. Not sure about the orange in the print though.

I love the cut, fabric, and pattern on that dress!! Not having seen you in person, I have no idea about the color working with your coloring, but man it's gorgeous!

Gorgeous dress! Isn't it primarily olive or is my monitor playing tricks on me?

Looks mostly olive to me, too, with the bright green, orange and yellow maybe contrasting it a bit to make it look brighter. I think the base would work on you...you'll just have to try it on! Cute dress...

I took the plunge, I ordered a 10 (46) to be on the safe side. I think it'll be ok if it's a bit loose.
