Green is in?

 I think GREEN is IN (Degas blue-green)

I’m seeing a lot of it
Like at the Cannes Film Festival.
Varying shades of green
Spinach green?
Have you started noticing Green too? Can you guess where this is?
Green nail polish is HOT in Printemps
Green Tea in bottles in Galeries Gourmet
Green in the Metro
Beaucoup green in Parfum!
Ladurรฉe pale pale green
What’s your favorite shade of green?
Last weekend the Steeplechase races ๐Ÿ‡ at d’Auteuil, many people were wearing Kelly green? to support the Papot family and they won ๐Ÿ† 2 times!
Printemps loves this shade of bright Spring green. It’s their brand color.
Unusual green perfume bottles.
French pharmacies of course - it makes them easy to spot. Green means sante/health?
Nice green Parisian truck.
If you want to get into some lush greens ๐Ÿฅฌ 
Run ๐Ÿƒ out to Jardins Jardin this weekend. It started yesterday.
Meanwhile I’m painting 
some 
Degas ballerinas
๐Ÿฉฐ for Etsy.

    Would you mind sharing the name of the store where you buy your stamps? I remember you bought that very cute shopping bag with the French stamp of La Baguette on it last year. I will be in Paris next week and thought I might drop by to see if they have any other interesting bags this year. Thank you very much! I greatly enjoy your updates on happenings around Paris.

    Any green will do, however AVOCADO green thrills me. And combining any green with any purple brings me to ecstasy! Miss you, Dear Carol. We met up about a year ago R. Bad. T’embrasse.

    I like khaki-ish greens…in clothing. I’m loving the infinite variety of greens in nature due to our wet spring. The only good thing about the rains? ๐Ÿ˜˜

    I have some Ballerinas (apres degas) several years ago. I love them and they have hung in my bedroom. Unfortunately, I had a stroke and had to move, but your ballerinas came with me and are hanging in my new bedroom. I would LOVE to pair them with a green set!!
