FF: {Emerald} City

As I kid I used to be a birthstone junky. I loved knowing what each month was and what the stone ment, etc. But one of the few stones I didn't like, just happened to be mine - May the emerald - I always wished I was born in October so I could be an opal.

But now that I am into bolder colors I have begun to appreciate the beauty and depth that the color provides. So to shake it up I chose a more mild palette of emerald with purple and some gold accents.

The dress is perfect. While winter is underway and I love it, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't looking forward to spring. :)

Great dress. I love the big print!

I never liked my birthstone either. I'm December and blue topaz was soooo boring to me. I actually still don't have anything in my birthstone!

That dress is fantastic! I'm not a fan of my birthstone either. Have a great weekend!!

I love that dress! And that color combo is gorgeous! My birthstone is a diamond, which is awesome, yet boring at the same time. I always wanted a birthstone with a bit more color!
