Alison 2B128 Alison 133 Saturday was ShamrockFest in DC – an all day music festival hosted by a local radio station. We went with about a dozen of our friends. Luckily the weather was on our side.

Green crewneck tee from Old Navy, green silk scarf from Banana Republic, denim skirt from Gap, tan “Bern” boots from Duo, my orange wool and crewel work bag from Sigrid Olsen.

Hair was washed and conditioned, let air dry and then hit the weird places with the curling iron. Bit of Jonathan Silky Dirt to hold in place.

Makeup is philosophy The Present, philosophy The Supernatural in Beige, Cargo Matte BeachBlush in Tenerife, Pop Beauty's shadow set for Brown Eyes – the Celadon on lid. Little bit of a Sephora chunky eye pencil in emerald green around lash lines. Lashes curled, two coats Cover Girl LashBlast in black, thin line Maybelline UltraLiner in black on top lash line. On lips is Benefit's Her Glossiness in Next Question Please.

Sunday was sort of a bum around day. I put on my olive green linen shift from Old Navy, my cream cable-knit hooded cardigan from Express, green striped cashmere kneesocks from Target and my boots from Duo. We went for a walk around the neighborhood for an hour or two, then walked to the town center for dinner. Love warm early spring days like this!
