Happy St. Patrick’s Day

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!!!  To honor this lucky day, let’s celebrate with the ever so versatile green color.  What I love about green is that it compliments natural earthy hues like brown and blue perfectly but also can give the bland brown, white, or black outfit that pop of color.   And if you are into color blocking with bright colors, try fuschia or yellow for a trendsetting look.

Well, that’s quite enough of a lapse into hyperbole for the time being. I could go on all day; instead let me distill my mental stew of adjectives into the following statement:

Oh, look! Pretty!
