MINTY FRESH

Mint green is everywhere I look these days. It's a big color trend for Spring 2012 and it's lovely seeing it pop up in fashion and interior design. I've always liked this color and I think it pairs well with a lot of colors in a unique way; gold, coral, orange, yellow. I found this color board at Creature Comforts, a really sweet blog full of pretty things to inspire!

Here are some more minty cool images to get you pumped for spring. I am completely obsessed with this vintage mint green phone! It would make a great book end or side table accessory- an easy way to get in on the trend without committing to it in a big way. I also just tried this nail polish color "Hey! Get in Lime!", it looks great on my toes, but I would definitely go lighter on my fingers to get a big pop of candy color.
