pearlescent mint + hoop earrings.

pastels and florals...it doesn't get any more spring-y than this.
even though i already have a pair of mint cargos, i liked that these denims had a pearlescent sheen to them.
you can see it in the detail shot below.

i just wanted to drop in and say hi again. things are still busy at work, but i'm slowly catching up around here. i never really pay attention to the seasons because it's pretty much summer year-round where i live...but it's been rainy for the past few weeks. there's even a flash flood warning for 6pm tonight. guess this is what you might call spring showers.
hopefully they bring may flowers.

i love that the diamonds are on the inside of the hoop since that's the part we see. makes sense, right?
the minis had some QT of their own...
i brought out these rocks [in the yard] so that mini-he could drive them around in his dump truck, but it started to rain. so in the house they came and out came the paint. on sunday they painted one side and let them dry. monday, they painted the other side. TWO days these rocks kept them busy. who knew?!

  2. I so love this combination of navy floral top with the mint green jeans. I might try to re-create. Painting rocks is a great idea. Might use that too when the kids are bored and begging for ipads and I stand firm. :)

  10. What do you do for work? You often talk about it on your blog. You must be dedicated.

    The mint pants are really nice. I think my next clothing purchase will be something minty too.

    And painting rocks is such a good idea. Will do that this weekend.

  11. Well it's supposed to be Spring here in the UK but it is actually snowing more like Winter - the mint is definitely a nice colour for spring/summer! Don't work too hard!
