Whenever I see blue and green together, I can’t help but think of my high school colors. But it’s hard to think of high school days spent in Miami with legs this pale. But since it is finally March (my birthday month!), I had to share a little bit of green to get ready for the big day (and my birthday – sorry, I’m really annoying about my birthday) March 17th St. Patty’s Day!

I took these pictures before our little vacation and man oh man, was I ever in need of a tan. Yikes a million. That’s why only one picture of those pale stems makes an appearance in this post.

So shield your eyes and focus on the detail of this print shirt that is from – get ready for a shock – Old Navy. I’m usually not a big fan of wearing a lot of green but with the mix of blue and white dots, it’s softens it up a little. I usually wear this shirt with jeans (like I did here) or with blue trousers for work but I love how it makes this gold skirt a little more casual.

And remember, I warned you about the paleness.

Top: Old Navy (sold out but here’s a couple good green ones – here and here); Skirt: Forever 21 (similar); Necklace: Stella & Dot; Flats: Nine West (from the Zappos Outlet)
