What if you Hate Emerald Green?

There are some fantastic design trends out there this year... but what if you don't like them? Today I am discussing the pressure to incorporate current trends and how to make sure what you do is right for you!

    I'm with you on this Cynthia.

    Though it's fun to watch the trends, and I still do, I haven't been pressured to follow them since I really wanted a pair of white jeans and blue denim tennies with orange shoe laces back in junior high. Shockingly, to the teeny bopper that I was, the world kept revolving. That's pretty much when I realized having ones own style was the way to go. For ME. ...»

    Oh and I love GREEN and have it in most of the rooms of our home.

    I enjoy seeing new trends, but don't confirm to them either - unless I like them :) I do like emerald green--in moderation.

    Thank you Cynthia. I actually remembered that I tried earlier to be ME, but was talked out of it by the guy at Sears optical. I was in 4th grade and picked out a pair of glasses that were not "in" according to him. That was the one and only time that I ever remember that my Mom didn't let me be me. She always allow me to decorate my own room. The next time we picked out frames she told the same guy that her daughter knew what she liked. The guy was really an awesome guy and seemed to take ...»
    to me so I think he was just worried I'd get teased for wearing such an "odd" pair of glasses. Okay, now I miss him. I've been so weepy lately.

    Thank you Cynthia. My hubby thinks I'm this way because our daughter is expecting her first baby. I'm sharing that emotional hormonal pregnancy thing with her. Great! Ha ha ha.

    Thank you Cynthia. You don't look old enough to have a 21 year old son. Our daughter is 28. Her older brother has a five year old son that we adore too. He spends Wednesdays with me so no weepiness today. We had fun.
