A Refreshing Splash of Mint

Since it felt like a 100 degrees yesterday, I think it’s time to pull out the summer clothes.  What’s more summery than whites with a refreshing splash of mint green?

I found the blazer that ties this look together in Forever 21 for $29.80.  Since my fabulous orange blazer find in Forever 21 back in January, I now regularly visit that store whenever I’m in a mall.

Camisole—Old Navy
Blazer—Forever 21 (same style in different colors)
Skirt—Banana Republic (similar)
Sandals—Kana (similar)
Bag—MICHAEL Michael Kors via eBay
Scarf—TheLimited
Earrings—Kendra Scott “Danielle”

      …and I had to hunt it down in a few stores. It was so worth it though!

      For sure! I used to have a few white dresses, but this skirt might be the only piece I own now (besides tops).

    You do look like a breath of fresh spring air. I am one of those peeps who doesn't wear white well, and am very envious of those who can 🙂

      Thanks! White can be tricky to wear. I'm usually afraid of getting dirty when wearing white 🙂

    Thanks! I'm wearing Mac Asian Flower Supreme Sheen lipstick. It's a fuchsia purple, but it has an opaque color coverage. The opaque look is unusual for me, but I'm strangely fascinated with the color. I wear it with the Mac magenta lipliner.
