Luella & June: Emerald City

Luella & June is a great blog that I recently stumbled upon. It immediately caught my eye because of their graphics and endless colors. However, one of their posts really grabbed my attention because I've had a similar obsession with the color emerald and was planning on doing a post myself. Since they beat me to the punch, I thought why not feature them instead!
