Roundup: Green

Happy St. Patrick's Day, loves!

The day after our wedding we were at my parent's house digging through the basement and I found our family's genealogy.

My whole life my paternal grandpa had been telling me I was Swiss-German. What I discovered on the genealogy is that while I am 1/8 German the other 3/8s that have come from my dad's side are Irish.

And thus, this is my first St. Patrick's Day as an Irish girl (in the same way I'd be excited if I found out that Edie was the Easter Bunny).

I thought it would be fun to have a little St. Patrick's Day roundup in honor of my new found Irish heritage :)

I imagine these earrings would swish when you walk.

I've been dying for a mustard skirt but I think a kelly green one might satisfy me for now.


Adorable for happy hour this summer!

Green has never been so glam.

Perfect for the painter or art school grad.

Adorable dress for summer and I imagine it would pair well with tights & a cardi in winter.


Add some green to your walls as well as your wardrobe.

Lovely pleats & bow!


Next to magenta green kitchen cabinets are my favorite.

A girl can never have too many scarves.

Beautiful sentiment & color.

True story, I squealed when I saw this beaut.

An adorable project for St. Patrick's Day or any spring day.

When our kitchen is complete I will get one of these to sit by my stove.

Add a pop of color to your house.


I'm ready for sandals, are you?

What's your favorite shade of green?

The paint drip mug reminds me of Nickelodeon's slime, circa the early 1990s TV programming.

Such a good idea for a roundup! Congrats on your first Irish St Patty's Day! I've had my eye on that green anthro skirt for a while now...soo cute! And I have the utinsel jar from anthro but mine is yellow...it's much smaller than I expected but I still love it!

Edie MIGHT be the easter bunny, you never know. she totally has the ears.
(I thought my mom's best friend cheryl was the easter bunny till I was 8.. true story).
congrats on your Irish roots!!

Well there's definitely not a shortage of cute green stuff out there!

Having the words "summer" and "happy hour" in the same sentence make me giddy!
