And why not start this weekend with a fashion quote?! Love this one by Diane Vreeland:
“Colour depends entirely on the tonality. Green for instance can look like the subway – but if you get the right green…A spring green, for instance, is marvelous…”
Not gonna lie- all shades of green and from the palest lilac to the darkest mauves- are my favourite styling combinations hands down. Here’s a little inspo to bring in some Spring joy- and just in time for Easter.
And along with all the green goodness of Spring, for me it’s also about taking good care of my skin and adding a new twist to my skin care. It’s good to jazz it up and give yourself a boost to renew your skin as well. I’ve been doing that exactly with my new Oia Skin Patches. I love, love, love the results. In fact let me tell you how I truly saw a visible difference…
I used them overnight, and the next day did my photoshoots (the photos in this post included!)- my skin looked so fresh and dewy, and honestly had a more youthful and healthy glow. I’m seriously not kidding you. I saw it in my photos! And at first I thought it was the great spot and lighting (but I take most of my shots indoors so…?). Yes it was the Oia Skin Patches– trust me. My daughters were the first to tell me I looked so good (and that was before I applied my makeup).
If you’d like to try the Oia Skin Patches, you can use my code for 10% off: IMLUCYIG
Are you like me, do you also get a kick at watching these Oia Skin Patches testings? Here I am lol!

This is the perfect Easter outfit! I would wear something like this to work!!
And you should! These colours are mood boosters and therefore great for a work day as well! Thank you so much!
That colour looks so amazing on you. And the shoes just sets it all off quite beautifully
Thank you! I’m crazy for these boots (now I’d love to find a pair in light green!)
As usual, I’m late to the party, but I’m glad I showed up beyond fashionably late. Your green and purple is such a fun color combo. And you just reminded to get those patches of mine back out and put them to use.
Those patches are amazing Chrissy- I couldn’t believe it!! xx
