Blushing Mint





Silk blouse, blazer, necklace: thrifted. Jeans: Banana Republic, gifted. Shoes: ?? Sunglasses: Charlotte Russe. Watch: my grandpa's. Polish: Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear in 'Mint Sorbet' (here).


I've been loving the pastel trend this spring, so I was excited when Everybody, Everywear made pastels the theme for April.  I realized, though, that while I have just about every pastel possible in the form of nail polish, I don't really have that much pastel in my wardrobe.  I actually bought the blouse and blazer in the same thrifting trip last summer (foreseeing the trend?), but didn't image that I would ever wear them together.  Now, I really like how the mint and blush pink compliment each other with out looking too much like an Easter egg.


I was trying something a little more out there today with the half tuck of the shirt.  I think from now on I'll leave that look to the J.Crew models (seriously, can J.Crew do any wrong?).
