Green Leopard

And one final picture in front of our other Christmas tree.
We always have a fake tree and a real one.
The fake tree satisfies my chaotic sentimental urges with decorations made by the children from years back along with the cheapy baubles my husband and I first bought back in the mid-80s.
Together with a collection of posh baubles we have been given as gifts over the years.
The blue fabric heart shaped decoration with a red heart in the centre was made out of one of my dad's old shirts the first Christmas after he died.

 
The real one has a more sophisticated colour theme.

Taking a cue from the tree, I have been looking for a shade of green that suits my colouring and think I have finally found it.
 
Pistachio?
 
Not sure.


Whatever the shade is named I love it even more layered over this animal print thermal body from Marks and Spencer.
I think I am starting to finally embrace winter.
 
I wore:
Boots - Clarks
Top - Tesco
Body - Marks and Spencer

  1. I think this colour suits you very well (whatever it is called... to me it is a bit too much towards turquoise to call pistachio), and this is one of the nicest outfits I have seen you in I started to read your blog. Best wishes for 2013 - will continue enjoying seeing what you are wearing!

  4. It's a lovely green, and looks good on you (and with the leopard print). I found a lime green twin set that has a little blue in it, so it's a bright green that I can wear. It always perks me up!

  5. Both xmas trees are beautiful but I prefer the colorful fake tree, what a surprice ;-) The heart made of your dad's shirt is a very nice idea.
    Whatever the color is called, it suits you fantastic. Now I can see it as well, is has a hint of spring.
