Mellow Yellow

Yellow. A bright and, I’ve always thought, happy colour. My favourite knickers (which I always wear on a fun night out) are yellow. It’s a colour that symbolises positivity and energy – two things that are in abundance during the summer months. Then, there are the well-known song lyrics, “they call me ‘Mellow Yellow’” – and mellow is something we should all strive to be at this crazy time of year. So this week, my first week as Beauty and Style Editor at Trespass, I thought I’d stick with what I know and try to inspire you all. I have found some delightful treats that will both brighten up your day, as well as help you mellow out and treat yourself. Take a peek…

About Romy Grbic

Romy Grbic is Trespass Magazine's Auckland-based Beauty and Style Editor, and was always the kid with the ‘wacky’ parents. This used to be slightly embarrassing when bringing friends home from school, but has turned out to be a blessing in disguise. The 24-year old writer/beauty therapist, living in a house with optimal feng-shui, seems to be following in the footsteps of her slightly alternative parents and carving a road uniquely her own. One leading to self-sustainable living on a large farm with a big organic vegetable garden, and a very large makeup kit and wardrobe. With a diploma in beauty therapy and a degree in sociology, Romy has taken her passion for learning, pretty things and writing and combined them into one, by creating her own website (www.onefabulousday.wordpress.com) on which she blogs optimistically, in the hopes of making the world a better place, both aesthetically and environmentally.
