pinched.

i wore purple today. oops.

normally it wouldn't matter, but my boss' two little grandson's (7 & 4)

were at the studio for about thirty minutes this morning,

and they punished my left arm several times for not having any green on.

so here is what i should have worn:

1. Flutter neck shell Top- Ann Taylor LOFT

2. Detail on front of shell top

3. Cardigan- JCrew

4. Crystal Confection ring- Kate Spade

5. Malibu Hoops- Forever 21

6. Pin Slim Patent Belt- JCrew

7. Seaport twisted bangles-Kate Spade

8. Dropped gem bracelet- Banana Republic

9. Make Fast Flats- Anthropologie

10. Black Matchstick Jean - JCrew

 teal counts as green right? or would i still have gotten pinched??

my grandpa always used to tell me that i needed to wear

orange and green on St. Patrick's day.

i never knew or asked why...i just thought he was being funny.

so i looked it up today and there is a reason

that some people (very few) wear orange!

Orange is symbolic of Irish Protestants

 while Green is symbolic of Irish Catholics.

On the Irish flag, there is an orange stripe,

a green stripe and a white stripe.

The orange is for the Protestants, the green is for the Catholics

and the white is for the hope of peace between the two.

wonderful. a history lesson for all of us. :)

i am headed out of town until monday...so it's an early

weekend for me! Hope you all have a lovely one!
