52 Weeks of Color - Patina - Week 5

I like totally didn't know where I was going with this one. Nor where I would end up.
I kept thinking, this is an easy color, I've seen it and own it and I like it. 
From which stores and what it was called is totally another story.

Blog-hopping I found a blog that gave me some ideas - and finally I ended up at The Whore Mansion. But after checking and rechecking the swatch (and several 100 L$ less), the color wasn't quite right. It was too blue - turquoise and not enough green.
So I went home and started digging through inventory. I came up with this cute pair of socks from *elymode* which I'm wearing but you can't see. But then I hopped over to her store to check.
I bought some cutesies and took a hint from her vendor poster for the hair - this is Truth Hawk's colormint shade.
OK so I went home and played and gott dressed and had my outfit ready more or less. I kept a bra from The Whore Mansion and some panties I found in my inventory and decided to use purple for my secondary color. The shoes are freebies from TDR but the closes was this pinky/fuchsia color oh well.

OK NOW WHAT??
There is that minor detail about, you need to take a picture...... LOL
I'm sitting at home and playing with my cats and I look at the wall and there's an Art Deco painting, a gift for my birthday from my friend Melu.
The color is just right.......

Armed with just the painting I went up to the studio. This is what came out, hope you like. No Photoshops were hurt during the making of these piccies (except for the text)
♥ Kisses!
