I HAVEN'T MET A COLOR I DIDN'T LOVE
COLOR
Every color has it's own personality and each one evokes a different kind of emotion. RED for instance shows passion or heat like fire, while BLUE is known to be calming and cooling like water. PINK is used for baby girls and POWDER BLUE for baby boys. Yet the different values within a hue can have completely different meanings. Sure, the baby boy powder blue signifies a soft sweetness, while a deep NAVY BLUE has a more serious, regal effect. A sweet demure pink suitable for an infant doesn't create excitement like BRIGHT PINK, PURPLE or RED would. So don't let a color fool you. It can do very different things to us, our perceptions and our emotions. GREEN makes us think of nature, YELLOW reminds us of the sun, while BROWN conjures up earthy thoughts. Over the next few weeks and months, I'll be showing you just how beautiful each and every color can be and how it can tickle our emotions differently by the ways we see it, use it and wear it.

I really need to open my mind up to more color options. I'm naturally drawn to soft pastels and of course pink but I think my favorite color is glitter! lol
