Surf Through Spring in Blue

Before I share today's post with you, I want to thank you for the loving support that so many people have sent over the past few days.  Your emails, messages, comments, and tweets mean so much to me.  It is very humbling to read your kind words.  One person who receives the blog via email said that it was as if I was an "old friend sending her an email every day."

Her words really resonated with me.

I hope that you see me as an old friend and that Maryland Pink and Green offers you a little break from your day.  Thank you for reading!

A pop of color makes any day happy, even if there are a few rough waves!  Isn't it amazing how you can change your mood simply by changing your shirt, or adding a bright blue bauble to your ensemble?

Blue is a universally flattering color for every skin tone and give you an instant boost.  I've never seen anyone look bad in a pretty shade of turquoise.

It's ideal to pair with cool neutrals like white and also looks fantastic with warmer tones like beige and camel brown.  But probably my favorite look for blue is a fun contrast of colors.  Turquoise blue and pink are fabulous.  I also adore turquoise paired with bright yellow.  Wouldn't Lilly Pulitzer's Elsa blouse look amazing with yellow colored denim?

Here are some of my favorite ways to add a pop of pretty blue reminiscent of the ocean to any day, even if you're currently landlocked!

The earrings and necklace are simply gorgeous and make a dramatic statement.  Although I love my Modalu Pippa bag in Shark, this blue shade is truly a beauty and will compliment so many things in any wardrobe.  Even the most neutral decor gets a boost from blue with gorgeous accent pieces.  And the lollipop?  It looked so yummy that I couldn't resist.
