(Guest Blog) Garden to Fashion: Let’s Talk Tomatoes

posted by Amanda // Fashion

Jun 20, 2012

Hi everyone,

I’m Starlet from Can You Come Home, a blog where I talk about my indoor / outdoor living adventures and a bridge for connecting what I see in the garden to the world of fashion. (Yes, I am a bit obsessed with fashion that I see it everywhere…)

Today, I’m so privileged and delighted to be here at Amanda’s blog – an extremely gorgeous online notebook that always get my creative cells tickled for sure!

Every summer is endless tomato harvest in my garden.  I would love to inject this hot hue of red & orange into my closet — and yours too!

Shall we take a look at our options?

When money isn’t an issue (lucky you!)
