Green With Envy

St. Patrick's Day is right around the corner, so this week we are featuring some stylish green outfits.

{Some top picks}

1) Perhaps the typical green isn't your color, don't fret, you can still show your Irish pride. Choose a teal (still in the green family) cardigan with soft rosettes down the front, layer it with this great halter with gray and cream stripes, and an accent of tan ruffles. So pretty, and will be worn time and time again.

2) Wear your shamrock on your sleeve in this bright green cardigan, a great pop of color for spring and summer. Throw it over a bohemian inspired tunic, add a belt and you have great look for drinking green beer, eating corn beef and cabbage, or doing an Irish dance.

3) A bit' o green for you. Go earthy in this olive green sweater and flowered print dress. This color green is easy to wear for your St. Patrick's day celebrations, but is neutral enough to be paired with many other things to wear any other day of the year.

add a hint of green to any outfit with some great accessories from Sticks and Stones, we have watches, jewelry, hair accessories and scarves. For some inspiration on wearing your new green scarf check here.

and...the pot of gold for St. Patrick's day; our Lucky Brand jeans. They fit great and make your legs long and lean, because nobody wants to resemble a leprechaun no mater what the holiday is.

One top, 3 looks.

Today I am going to show you how you can take one top, in this case a tunic, and turn it into three different outfits.

The first outfit is a great one to wear on the weekend, running errands, or any other time you want to look stylish but still want to feel very comfortable. We paired our tunic with grey cargo style skinny pants, and longer navy blue cardigan, a thick belt across the skinniest part of your waist makes you look 5 lbs thinner, and pulls the whole outfit together. Top this outfit off with a great necklace and you have a look that is as easy to put on as sweat pants and sweat shirt, but looks a trillion times better.

Next we take our tunic to work by layering it under a light green cardigan, a grey pencil skirt and very cute necklace. Wear this outfit with colored tights (my first pick is chocolate brown or navy blue) and some fun stacked heels, and you have an outfit that doesn't look stuffy, but still follows most office dress codes.

*note-the grey skirt shown, can be worn just like it is in the photo, but it also works great under those tunics that are just a inch or two too short to actually wear as a dress. What a great way to extend the life of that tunic that you can easily wear during the winter months with leggings and boots, now you can put this cute little skirt under...add a few inches and feel confident wearing it with bare legs for spring and summer.*

For date night we went a little bit softer and romantic with our outfit. A ruffled, pale lilac cardigan is the perfect thing to wear on your date. Throw your essentials in your white leather clutch, and layer a few necklaces and you are set for your hot date! To wear this outfit now, while it is still chilly outside, put on some grey tights... or white... or light blue... .or soft pink... or.... (seriously I can see many different colors working with this outfit, don't be afraid of colored tights, and have fun playing around with different shades) and a pair of great heels. This outfit would work great when our warm days and nights finally come back as well with just bare legs and some strappy sandals... and a pretty pedicure of course.

I love all of these outfits, and the great thing about them is that they all can really be worn any time of year.

You would not believe all the fun things that have been coming into the store, if you haven't stopped by in a while, you should do so soon to see for yourself. The photos above are just a FEW of the new items we have in, there are many, many more waiting just for you. See you soon.
