green tea and gemstones.

i love this cool palette of greens + blues.
i was just experimenting with my nails last night as i wasn't sure how many blue and green polishes i owned. luckily, mini-she had a few, so there was enough to play around with. i may get rid of the dark blue on my ring finger and replace it with the green on my thumb for a more consistent palette.
you can check out my red + coral nails here.
the rest coincidentally fell into place...the green sweater which fell off the shelf a few days ago and was sitting on the ground in my closet, the green bag i had in the car, and the green tea kit kats a client brought back from japan. so yum.

thank you...
for the sweet comments and encouragement on mini-she's guest post; she was ecstatic and even wrote up another post already.
for voting for my photo in the previous post.


on the nails: claire's green; essie turquoise and cacois;
hard candy aqua; jordana blue
(sweater, gap; denim, express; blazer, f21; satchel, urban outfitters)

Any chance you'd do a guest post for me? I'm having spinal surgery MONDAY and with a 5 week recovery, I'm going to need some content. Only catch is I'd need the post in the next few days so I can get it loaded before I'm drugged up for the fist few weeks! ;) Let me know.... lisafergus@yahoo.com

I love that your sweater literally threw itself at you. Awesome. You look great! As far as the green Kit Kat, I'm not so sure about that. It looks so weird.
Cheers,

I love this whole look. You are the queen on colors, my dear. I mean, I am going through my nail polish cupcake right now assembling some same colored varnish to do my nails. Ok, not now-now, but later. :) and I've heard of that Green Tea KitKat.. is it really that delish?
