Today, I would like to introduce you to the unusual color combination of mint green, green and a touch of blue. As a child, the quote I’ve always heard was: «Grün und Blau schmückt die Sau,»which literally translates into green and blue is worn by a pig. After doing some research, I found out that it originates from a verse of the song «Delmenhorst» by Elements of Crime from the ’80s. However English people think the same and state, «blue and green should never be seen unless there‘s something in between.»
Personally speaking I think blue and green are gorgeous together. For this look, I added colour-pop accessories in blue hues to the mint and green combination to create an interesting mix.
My look: Wool and silk-blend crepe blazer, and cropped pleated cotton-blend crepe wide-leg pants, both by Ralph & Russo, silk-georgette blouse
by Alexander McQueen, Pillow smalll feather and crystal-embellished floral-jacquard tote
by Dries Van Noten, Purist 105 suede pumps
by Aquazzura, vintage blue crystal earrings by CHANEL, Clash de Cartier ring large model in pink gold with amazonite, and LOVE bracelets, all by Cartier.
LoL, Sandra
