'What is your favourite colour mummy?' I get asked this a lot. Its must be a very important question to a 4 year old girl. To be honest I had never really given it much thought but now when faced with the question I have my answers ready. I say
answers because I now have a real answer and an expected answer....my real answer is yellow, my expected answer is pink because when you are a 4 year old girl pink is the
only colour you need! My little girl is obsessed with pink, pink and glitter...blue is her archenemy and should be worn 'by boys only!' Its 'stinky' and 'yuk'. I admitted to her one day (must have been feeling brave) that I actually really like blue, there are so many shades apparently its almost impossible to not like at least one shade. In that same article I read that purple is the most accepted colour, the colour least likely to offend...
I mentioned yellow was my favourite colour but I have no idea why, I'm not 100% sure it
is actually my favourite colour, I mean I don't think I own any yellow clothes, no yellow shoes or bags, nail varnish is my favourite thing just now but yet I don't own any shades of yellow ??
Do you have a favourite colour? Is colour a big deal in your life? I don't really think it is in mine, I know it probably should be but in R&R Jewellery mum does really take care of that side of things, she is the creative/design-y one, I tend to deal more in words and facts, I'm more of a scientist than an artist, I like knowing a right and wrong in things, with art it is all subjective isn't it?
So I am going to post a picture of Ava's favourite R&R bracelet and yes you guessed it its pink...incidentally its also called Ava ...Goodnight folks! x

P.s For Holly
My favourite colour is RED. I think this might be because I just can't wear it. I have reddish blonde hair and wearing a red top washes me out so much it makes me look like I'm on my deathbed. So over the years I've become more obsessed with red. I want the red counter when I play board games and I'm always admiring any 'red' items. I figure perhaps I can wear white but accessorize with red?
ReplyDeleteAt least, that's the thought behind the purchase of my "dorothy" shoes. Sure they might be a bit too small, sure I might not have anything they go with...but they are bright fire engine red heels and I LOVE them. I take them out of their box to admire regularly, not having an occasion to wear them and not being cure I could even if I wanted to.
That said I also love rainbow accessories, I know it can make me look like I'm ten again, but then again, what's wrong with that, being ten was awesome (from what I remember). I love rainbow clips, bracelets etc. and I guess it's one way of smuggling red into my wardrobe that doesn't make me look bad.
I want more rainbows in my life :)
I loved reading your comment Holly! Yes white and accessorize with red sounds like a good plan and these dorothy heels sound lush!
ReplyDeleteNow you mention it whenever i need to choose a counter in board games I always go for yellow, how strange.
I've edited the original post in your honour Holly xxxx
