If you have read my other posts, you may have come to realise that I am an individual and I hate being like everyone else. This may be a little harsh, but I find that colour - at least the colours we see on products every day, (clothes, stationary, etc.) is defying this. I don't suppose that it is defying me personally, but the colours that department stores manufacture products in are always the same!
Of course, fashion lives off colour. Fashion decides 'What’s hot and what’s not' and at least where colour is concerned, this is the part of fashion I hate; in fact I really don't follow fashion at all. I decide what I like and stick to it, but this isn't a fashion blog.
Don't get me wrong, I love colour. I am thankful everyday for the colours of nature, the blue sky, brown bark, grey clouds, green, purple, red, yellow flora, and pink sunrise/sunset. I am grateful for hair colour, paint colour, eye colour, scale, fur and feather colour and clothing colour, (regardless of what I just said, I still believe colour has a place in the clothes we wear.) I even love the blacks, whites and greys of life in shadows, book pages, Cd's, wool, - colour is amazing in all of its different hues.
So I guess that I am saying that colour has its place, colour should be an individual choice and we shouldn’t use the same colours as everyone else in the little things that make us unique.
As another note my favourite colours are earthy tones like browns, light pinks and greens as well as blues, black and reds!
With colour brings texture. With texture brings sharpness. Take a photo in colour and black and white and if you just focus on the colours and shades, you'll appreciate it all so so much more!
Enjoy your shades!
