Minty Fresh

I'm hacking away at my keyboard with my mint green manicured fingers, to acquaint you all with my current colour obsession, which coincidently happened to be... mint green, or sea foam green, as some like to call it! I love its retro vibe, and I'm loving it in nail polishes, accessories and even in interiors. It’s the perfect partner to my other colour crush for this season...coral. This season I will be wearing this shade of green with accents of coral. Both of which will compliment the summer tan, that I hope to acquire, beautifully!

  29. Love your blog!!! I really like the cuff from Leather Rose, I think there used to be a shop by that name in Yeoville in Rockey St years ago....I wonder if it's the same people. I'll definitely look them up next time I'm in Knysna. Will follow you and add you to my links:)
