When I was at my parents' house this weekend, I was flipping through my mom's newest edition of House Beautiful. I love to flip through this magazine, because after fashion and style magazines, I love interior design mags. I love to decorate my home almost as much as I love to decorate myself :). But anyway, as I was flipping through the pages, I came across this page and fell in love with the color combination of kelly green + mint + white. So I immediately began to think of how to incorporate it into an outfit, and voila! Such an easy simple outfit - seriously, just a t-shirt, cardi, and skirt, but the color combo turns it into an outfit that I really love.
Do you all ever get outfit inspirations from home decor magazines? Besides fashion and style magazines, where do you get your inspirations?
T-shirt, Cardigan - J.Crew
Skirt - Express
Shoes - Ross
Belt - H&M
Necklace - Forever 21
Sunnies - TJMaxx

I love that cardi! It is just do great in that mint green! Have you done your pantone colorstrology? (check here: http://missedmatched.blogspot.com/2011/02/colostrology-astrology-numerology-oh-my.html )
My colour is garden green (I think) and it makes me want to copy your colour palette from this outfit! :)
I absolutely love that you were inspired by those paint colors! Mint and kelly green look so great together--who knew?
Liz, I had never known about colorstrology before, but just did it :) Too
funny! I was a Laurel Green (go figure!) And please do copy the colour
palette - it is my new favorite! :)
PS - I tried to friend you on Facebook, but it didn't let me! So weird...
Thanks so much Kelsey!
Color is a constant inspiration for me wherever I end up seeing it.

I LOVE that you based your outfit on an interior design! I am working on some patio furniture right now with a similar color scheme...you could come sit on my patio and fit right in...heehee
Such a great inspiration! I love how these colors look together!
These colors are so lovely! Greens are so pretty especially in the spring and summer. I think it's got to do with the general landscape... Great inspiration.
that green on green is fabulous! and the white skirt just brightens everything up!
Oo pretty! I love reading decor blogs and mags, but I've never thought to try interpreting my preferences into my wardrobe. Great idea!
I love that color of mint green. It's one of my favorites and I just got it in a nail polish. Lovely! I love the unexpected places we find inspiration.
XOXO
