Coral is the perfect color for mid to late spring! It is fresh, fun, and such a gorgeous color, so naturally I chose it to be May's color of the month!

Color of the Month: Chartreuse

Making Me Blush

An Etsy Treasury created by me inspired by January's color of the month: blush. Click the picture to view the Treasury on Etsy.

Color of the Month: Blush

Feminine and romantic, blush is a color that makes my heart sing! I chose it as January's color of the month because it is light and soft enough to turn around anyone's winter blues. Why didn't I wait until February to match blush up with Valentine's Day...well, that would just be too normal. Now why would I want to do something normal?
Here are some looks that I have created that feature this gorgeous color.

Aubin & Wills slim shirt, $62 / Lipsy floral print pants, $35 / even&odd bootie heels, $80 / Warehouse satchel handbag, $51 / Circle sunglasses
