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.

ooo i love all these green things! you know i only own 2 green shirts.. and i don't know why? i like green.. i just never wear it for some reason!
I love it all! Happy St. Pattys day girl!
All of those dresses are so cute!
My fav shades of green are kelly green and forest green. Today I'm rockin' mint 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!
oh my Lord I miss summer time happy hours!
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!

I love your finds! Especially that pair of swingy earrings. I need those in my life.
