It's A Chartreuse Addiction





Skirt DIY | Top Joe Fresh | Necklace Aldo | Earrings Forever21 | Shoes BFT

Oh Chartreuse, how I love you. You make me smile on gloomy days. You make my love for black, okay. What would I do without you? I'd be lost in a sea of neutrals, without a splash of color to use. People think I'm crazy for you, and they're right, I'm obsessed. *sigh* I love you Chartreuse, don't ever leave me.

My ode to Chartreuse aside, I couldn't find the neon yellow skirt of my dreams anywhere, so I made one. Bought this fabric for something around $2, and a piece of elastic for ¢50... If that wasn't a bargain, I don't care to know what is! I fell in love with this Joe Fresh shirt as well. The sequin polka-dot's give some interest to what normally would have been an extremely boring outfit.

P.S. I need some new heels, I know, don't remind me!

Hey, Fat Chick reblogged a pic of your scarf tutorial on Tumblr and I got here from that.
OMG I LOVE that color! Chartreuse has been steadily edging out red as my favorite color for a few months now.

Amaaaaaaze. So chic and simple. I especially love the necklace!
Where did you wear this to? I'm trying to figure out what occasions are heels appropriate, or if there even is such a thing. I feel like they could be worn whenever, but I'm unsure!

I'm really loving the chartreuse! Such a great color for you :) I am definitely feeling inspired to take a sewing class so that I can have more full skirts like this. I can never seem to find them thrifting or in mall :/ Great post!
