Colours are inspirational — 7 months ago
Not that trinny & susannah are necessarily all-knowing but they did provide some exellent points on the matter. For instance, i agree that i probably do look more terrible than needed by wearing black and navy. For some reason we the people have declared black the ultimate basic colour that you cant be found guilty of wearing too much of. However, i look outside my window now and there is so much black out there. Jackets, trousers, shoes… all black. Navy seem to be the second most popular thing. And gray is the colour of all buildings, the ground and even lamp posts. Its quite depressing really. So i decided that ill take the advice of people i dont know and gradually stop wearing these three colours and so make the world a bit more happy and bright. It cant hurt right? My colours (the ones that, according to said experts in particular area, will suit me best) are “english autumn landscape” kind of. Meaning: pompeian red, yellow ocra, burnt orange, different browns and greens, maybe blue if more teal, and such. I do adore these colours and cant wait to let more variety into my life and reflection, i am truly tired of all the dark, dull shades that i see way too much of every day.
