Mad for Emerald, Emerald City and That Little Guy in Green

2013 has been declared the year of the emerald–and we couldn’t be any more mad about it for March! The rich, regal shade of green not only has Pantone‘s blessing, but will also keep us from getting pinched on Sunday. And color us crazy for noticing, but do you find it at all serendipitous that L.

Mad for…Shades of Gray

Maybe it’s the country’s current obsession with a certain best-selling women’s novel, but lately we’ve been inspired by the color gray.  Not too bright and not too dark, it delivers the perfect dose of mystery, drama, coolness and warmth to satisfy our TypeA tendencies this week.
