birdie bike in mint

So I've been looking into buying myself a new bike, preferably vintage-inspired, lightweight, chic, and ultra-durable...and I've narrowed down my choices to two favorites. I adore the Linus Dutchi, but this looovely minty-green Birdie is my current obsession. It's fantastic.
[With a little wicker basket, of course. <--- most important accessory.]
And since this bicycle is perfectly compatible with wicker baskets, bunches of peonies, 50's sundresses, and daydreams, I'll just take them all, please. :)

xo.

"Too often we underestimate the power of a touch,

a smile, a kind word, a listening ear,

an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring,

all of which have the potential

to turn a life around." || Leo Buscaglia

Since it's a cold, windy, miserably wet day today, and I'm inside altering bridesmaids dresses for an April wedding [and wishing I was in NC for the afternoon!], I'd thought I'd share a few of the things I'm loving this morning...[that $80 lace cardi is currently only $14...I'm a fool to not snatch it up this very moment!] My current color obsession is actually peach and mint, but I just adore salmon pink and kelly green as well, they're such classic colors...and wear well in every season [but they make me think especially of Summer-time, so I love them even more!]

How about you? What are your favorite colors for Spring?
