I’m branching out!
Anyone who’s known me for any length of time quickly realises that I like green. A lot.
I am frequently dubbed “green lady” or “green faerie”. Because, for the past ten years or so, I’ve worn exclusively clothes that are green.
All my clothes are green – everything, right down to my bras and knickers. Well, I shouldn’t exaggerate; I don’t wear *only* green, I also wear Forest and Hunter and Sage and Emerald and Kelly green. Asparagus, Fern, Jungle, Moss, Pine, Shamrock, Bottle green, and occasionally Lime and Khaki.
My closet is a pleasing assortment of greens, it makes me happy to see all the shades, and feel like I’m in a lush forest.
People frequently give me green things; just because they’re green. Or they assume some random lost object they’ve found *must* me mine, because it’s green.
So when I went around the village on the weekend sporting a new pair of brightly-striped rainbow socks, it caused quite a stir! I love my new socks, and they are, in fact, only 14.28% green!
This could be the start of a revolution!

Why the green?? Apart from the loveliness of the various shades ;-)
ReplyDeleteWhy?? um... I think I just started out by waking up every morning and choosing what I felt like wearing, and it was always green.
ReplyDeleteI didn't go all-green overnight, it was a slow process over about two years... but now I just don't feel right wearing anything else.
Love the socks! Totally hot. :)
ReplyDeleteGlad you approve, Beth. They are cute, and not grey in the slightest ;)
ReplyDeleteStunning!
ReplyDeleteJeeej for that! I am more the rainbow kind, got some brown, white en black things in my closet and contemplating if I should get rid of it.
ReplyDeleteChoosing a favourite colour makes it so much easier to choose in de morning or to buy in a shop.
People also get me colourful things, they always know great gifts for my birthday.
Nice green colours you have got there :) <3
