The New Neutral

(shirt: loft | cardigan: old navy | pants: loft | shoes: banana | scarf: h&m}

A few days ago I told you about my love for pastels, and especially, these shoes. They are the perfect mint. And believe it or not, mint seems to go with just about everything. I think I'll start calling it "the new neutral".  

Ok, so this theory might not be so obvious from my outfit above, since it's only black,white, and mint. Sometimes my outfit and my thinking don't quite connect. But use your imagination, will ya? 

mint and pink? yep. 

mint and yellow? yep. 

mint and hunter green? yep. 

mint and light, medium, or dark blue? yep. 

You see my point? And, in case you were wondering, both my shoes and my shirt are in mint condition. (za-zing!)

Also, that last photo is my squinty face. I save it for special, sunny occasions. In case you were wondering... 

Pastels

It's Wednesday but it feels like Monday. This means Friday is going to feel like Wednesday and the weekend is going to feel like an early surprise! I sure do love a long weekend. I spent this past weekend gallivanting around Seattle, playing tourist with some of my favorite people.

And I wore this mint sweater. I might be a little late to the mint bandwagon, but better late than never? On the other hand, I'm getting an early start on spring pastels!
