Cool Summer Mint

I'm seeing lots of coral this summer, but what's really catching my eye is mint green—sometimes just the pure, crystal pastel shade, others a bit deeper with a touch of jade mixed in. I'm not sure if it's everywhere or just on my radar. Here are my super hot picks for this cool summer color!

essie Fashion Playground from the 2014 Hide and Go Chic Collection


Kate Spade Cabana Tile in blue/green. It's so last summer, but this print is still plentiful on Ebay; choose from totes, wallets and even iPhone and iPad cases.


Mossimo Maxi Dress:  Mint against black makes a stunning contrast in this reasonably priced dress from Target.

The sensible FitFlop gets an elegant upgrade with this limited edition guest designer print from Keiko Nishiyama. It's the Keiko Shuv Thong Sandal in Pistachio. $124.95 at Nordstrom.com.


Nordstrom always seems to have the best selection of scarves, and I never pay full price.  This Silhouette Scarf in Summer Green by Vince Camuto is on clearance right now for $25.49




I'm liking Marc Jacob's stuff better now that he's offering more options that don't have his name and logo splashed all over them. This is the Gamma Ray Computer Commuter bag in the shade Dusty Jade Green Multi. $79.06 is the currrent clearance price on Nordstrom.com.


Lilly Pulitzer Ross Halter Dress (top) and for your little one, Little Delia Shift Dress. Shade name Ring The Bellboy. Nobody knows summer prints like Lilly—I love the crispness of this! $198 for Mom, $78 for daughter, at lillypulitzer.com.


Mint and lavender are a perfect match in this Dooney & Bourke Tulip Tote in the shade name Violet.  $215.42 is the current clearance price at QVC.com.
