i blend in with the leaves

there's that color again...green. i got this top a few days ago at American Apparel.
it's was on sale to for a whooping $13 fashion STEELE! i decided to make it the focal color of the outfit and kept the skirt and accessories neutral and adding a pop of color with my Joe Fresh belt.
im starting to love pairing colors even if they don't match in the modern sense. fashion is about expressing yourself and doing what you want. it's visually more interesting than something we've all seen before. mixing it up...is better than being dull.

Top: American Apparel | Skirts: H&M | Shoes: Tahari Dayna Sandal
Belt: Joe Fresh | Watch: BCBGeneration | Necklace: Light Years

i love this skirt so much i have it in orange and in black. it's just a classic shape that looks great on me. i tend to gravitate toward tulip skirts and full skirts because they show off more of my figure. also super excited i got to wear my Tahari sandals again, see them worn differently here.
this is one of my favorite places to run through during the weekends. it's so serene and green. i love this time of year. i always forget that i have this green watch that i picked up at Loehmanns. I'm not really too much of a watch girl but I've got my eye on this and this very unique BCBGeneration watch as well. all i need now is an emerald ring like one of these to complete my green accessories. emerald is my birthstone...maybe thats why i love the color green so much..hmmmm.

where's your place of serenity?
