GOING GREEN

Everything to protect you from those pesky leprechauns on St Patty's Day and put a little SPRING in your step!

Ellsworth Kelly, American Artist, 1923-2015

I am so ready for spring! I have wanted to basically sleep all of January and February and I don’t think I am alone. Nothing says spring like GREEN. I would argue that there is no better color than green. My home and wardrobe are both filled with the snappy color. It is happy without being too sweet. It is year round and works dressed up or down. My Nana would say it is “easy to wear and forgiving” unlike its pretty mother, yellow (yellow and blue make…). Below are some things I would throw on any day and a few useful green accessories (even for your martinis). If you want to walk into a fairytale of green, visit Found by Maja in SF. It is a healthy little green feast for the eyes.

These fun slacks will go seamlessly from meetings to lunch to errands and after work drinks. Slacks almost always fit well (the good ones) and make everything (my bum) feel a little “fitter” than it actually is. Paired with sneaks and a sweater or even better a tee or denim shirt and you can wear them everywhere. I love jeans, but I have jean fatigue and I am tired of how expensive it is to look so “casual”. I have been very into my new bass loafers (style inspo from Dad) and they need a good pair of socks. My wardrobe borders on plain (it’s painfully plain) so it can always use a good bracelet or necklace. I don’t change my bag often, but if I were to add one now, why not this lovely green tote? My day bag must fit my laptop, at least two books (neither of which I will touch throughout the day, but they are aspirational), my planner (which my husband would argue should be on a shared calendar), a good pen, some lipgloss, hand cream, cell phone, airpods, and hopefully a little hand-written note to drop in the mail to someone I miss.
