2 of my favourite colour trends this spring are peach and mint (Ellie Saab’s Spring Couture 2012 line was filled with peaches and mints!) While I’m averse to incorporating pastels into my wardrobe for fear that it will look too much like a bag of Cadbury Mini-Eggs, I’ll most certainly be wearing some of these colours on my nails.
For some reason, I couldn’t find Essie’s Tart Deco ANYWHERE in Edmonton and so began a 2 year rampage to find a dupe for it (with no success), which means that I’ve accumulated quite the collection of pastel orange-corals. Only recently did I happen to stumble upon Tart Deco (at Shoppers Drug Mart) and of course I let out an audible gasp… and maybe did a little happy dance in the middle of the cosmetics aisle :$

Essie “Turquoise & Caicos” (robins egg blue)
Revlon “Whimsical” (not mint-coloured at all, haha! Just thought I’d throw that in there cuz it’s in the light blue/green pastel family and yes, it’s a dupe for Deborah Lippman’s “Glitter in the Air”)
What colours are you excited to wear this spring?
