I have mentioned it before… I am so fed up by winter and so ready for spring, warm temperatures, sunshine and blossoming flowers and trees!
At least I am wearing some green already.
Emerald green is the Pantone colour of the year (see my previous post here) and I especially love the combination with black which gives it a more formal look and white which adds a bit of a summer party touch.
Today I decided to pair it with a black lace skirt from ZARA and my new white blazer from H+M.
Last week I had my hair cut and hope you like the new look. I am happy with it as it still gives me the option of pinning up my hair.
Tomorrow I am leaving for Lake Garda and Verona, Italy for a couple of days and will be back with some Italian inspirations next week.
Zum wiederholten Mal… ich kann den Winter nicht mehr sehen und den Frühling, Sonne und warme Temperaturen und die ersten Frühlingsblumen kaum erwarten.
Daher habe ich mich heute wenigstens schon mal für grün entschieden.
Smaragdgrün ist die vom Pantone Institut auserwählte Trendfarbe 2013, ich hatte darüber bereits hier geschrieben. Am liebsten kombiniere ich sie mit Schwarz für abends oder mit Weiß – damit bekommt sie einen eleganten Sommerparty-Touch finde ich.
Heute habe ich beides gewählt und trage die Bluse zu meinem ZARA Spitzenrock und meinem neuen Blazer von H+M.
Letzte Woche hatte ich einen Friseurermin und ich hoffe, Euch gefällt mein kürzerer Schnitt. Die Haare sind immer noch lang genug, um sie hochzustecken oder zusammenzubinden, was ich sehr wichtig finde.
Ich freue mich auf ein paar erholsame Tage am Gardasee und in Verona und melde mich nächste Woche mit neuen Eindrücken von dort zurück.
A presto!
Annette
A special thanks to Mr C for taking my photos today ♥
All of these pieces work so beautifully together!

I agree with you about how great Emerald looks with black but you are also making such a strong case for this green with cream!

Hi Annette! You look FABULOUS! Once again, this outfit is so chic…I love how your clutch pulls everything together without being too matchy-matchy! I want that necklace. 😉 Have a safe and enjoyable trip…can't wait to see your Italian inspirations.

Richtig schick siehst du aus. Die Farbzusammenstellung gefällt mir außerordentlich gut. Ich habe mir auch schon einen weißen Blazer gekauft. Daran kommt man diesen Sommer nicht daran vor und am grünen Trend auch nicht.

Escaped to Italy for a couple of days!!
Liebe Annette,
du siehst einfach bezaubernd aus! Dein Haar ist toll geworden, die Länge ist super. Der Rock gefällt mir auch sehr gut. Gelungenes Outfit.
Ich wünsche dir eine erholsame und schöne Zeit im Urlaub.

Very elegant dress. I like the color of the blouse 🙂
the emerald tone of the blouse fits you perfectly 🙂
and that's a tone I personally LOVE!
Have a great weekend!

Beautiful hair cut, beautiful smile. I like how you made the necklace tie the three colours emerald, black and white together. Don't know how it does that, as it is blue, but it does. Lovely combination.
It is very nice to meet a fellow necklace lover. I had a friend who made 13 of my beautiful big necklaces, but she had a preference for short ones. She only made one long one, especially for me. The very big long one you have seen on my yellow tunic. She used to live in Germany for many years.

Die smaragdgrüne Bluse in Kombination mit der Statement-Kette und dem Lippenstift ist super!
My recent post Sportlich eleganter Stil
Mir gefällt deine Kombination richtig gut. Rock, Bluse und Blazer sehen super zusammen aus. Allerdings finde ich die Kette etwas „mächtig“.
What a FAB necklace… I love the way it pops against that bright green. Nicely done!
