When I saw this wonderful image on the ever fantastic 'Living the Swell Life' it reminded me of just how many beautiful blue and green things I have seen recently in the new Spring catalogues. These materials that Jessica laid over one another just look stunning and she has made some lovely little pieces from these fabrics in her Etsy shop.
This inspired me to seek out my favourite items, in these colours, from next seasons goodies. I had a lovely skirt last summer that was in blue and green but at the time I couldn't help thinking my Mum always used to say - "never be seen in blue and green", but I think I heard recently it should be "never be seen in red and green" - anyone know that phrase? Anyway I sold the skirt on Ebay in the Autumn - maybe I should have kept it for the upcoming Spring? But I am sure I could find something equally as lovely from the collection below.
scarf, moccasins, lime cardigan, green cardigan, purse, make-up bag, cushion, pale green cardigan, spotty shirt, bejewelled flats.
tealight holders, cards, bird cards, dress, leaf brooch, pretty notebook, ribbon, owl candle holders, pillow boxes, ribbon selection, clutch bag, felt purse. Did you see anything that took your fancy? Surely you did! I have a little birthday money still to spend and it currently feels like it is burning a hole in my pocket! But I just cannot make my mind up what to spend it on, I had told myself I would choose a few of my Etsy faves but I simply cannot make a decision! I do have some vouchers for my absolute favourite clothes shop Boden so I think those bejewelled green sandals have my name on them! Would love to hear what you liked from the Spring collection above...


Blue and green go together beautifully. They remind me of cool spring breezes and sunlight streaming through the window.
ReplyDeleteLove the sleeveless blue and green shift dress, and the linen-look bag with the stripes of blue and green fabric.
I'm also a sucker for cushions, so I'm quite taken with the stripy ones.
The bejewelled sandals are fab. You should totally get them!
Blue and green are my tow favorite colors so naturally I am really loving this post!
ReplyDeletei love these collages you created... i've been loving the blue/green combo lately!
