I splurged on these shoes early last year, well before the pastel trend was on the horizon. So, you can imagine my delight when mint came out in full force this year. Just call me (and Kate Spade) a trend setter.

This J.Crew necklace is quickly becoming my go-to accessory for spring.

I purchased this mint necklace last week in Florida and it’s already become a source of inspiration for my spring wardrobe: candy colors offset by patterns in rich cobalt.

With its lightweight wood beads and color-blocked accents, Kate Spade’s Rosewood Dot Necklace is a fun piece for spring – and an even better DIY project.
You will need:
Choose your lacquer color to paint the beads. I used Revlon’s “Minted” polish.
Wrap tape around the beads so you get a clean line. I taped each one to a toothpick, then poked the painted beads into a cardboard box to let them dry undisturbed.
If all went well, you should be able to peel off the tape gently to reveal a straight line. Use a little bit of nail polish remover to get rid of any smudges.
String the beads in the following order: unpainted, gold, painted, gold, and so on.
Attach the beaded strand to the chain, add a clasp, and you’re done!
