   Ivory + Emerald + subtle Champagne Gold. Load AFTER css/styles.css.
   ---------------------------------------------------------------------
   Rules
   - Emerald #123C34 unchanged.
   - Ivory #F8F5EF for light sections, light buttons, text on emerald.
   - Champagne #D8C5A0 only for hairlines, numerals, small accents and
     italic emphasis on dark backgrounds.
   - Never champagne text on ivory/white (insufficient contrast): on light
     backgrounds, accents use emerald tones instead.
   - No mustard, bright gold, orange or brown-gold anywhere.
