about you

My wardrobe is colorful because I like variety. Same with the inside of my house. Each room is a different color because my hubby and I hated the boring, hospital feel of the all white walls in our house. We like color. And, each room moves smoothly to the next as far as the colors go. Like my dining room which is a dark almost burgundy color, moves flawlessly to a tannish color in my foyer, which moves flawlessly into my library which is a brownish orange color. Everything has a fluidity. Each room sets its own mood. The library is relaxing and romantic. The living room is comfortable. Our bedroom is this extremely dark green (which I hated at first as it is the only color the hubby chose) but it grew on me and I wouldn't change it in a heartbeat now. It is so dark because it is a room for sleep...almost like a cave. LOL! It is a little controversial. Friends who have seen it either love it or hate it. But, everyone likes the way we painted. So, I do believe the colors you live with whether you are wearing them or living in or on them, say a lot about you.

Well if you are confused I definately am! I'd say my kitchen is full of sunshine as thats bright yellow, bathroom was a mistake, too bright, needed to get a lighter shade of aqua so I could relax more, but will resolve that when I get chance, my daughters room has a grafitti wall where people draw pictures, sign there names etc, looks really effective actually. The lounge I love to relax in and that is a vary pale pastel green with lots of large green plants, and in fact the rest of the house tends to be pale neutral colours too. Clothes I wear tend to be jeans with various colour tops, mainly blue/reds rather than orange/reds as they suit my complexion more, blues, and yes of course the blacks too. I think colours do have an effect on your mood but not sure which ones mean what. Ellie :D

I like to have my the walls in the main rooms of my house bright white. I like it this way because I like bright bold colors for my furnishings and accents. In the bedrooms I like more personal touches. My son's room is shades of blue because he wanted an ocean themed room. It reflects his personality and who he is at this stage of his life. My room is a work in progress. The walls will be blush with white accents. The furnishings will be soft, pale pinks and very relaxing. Thankfully my husband has no problem with a pink bedroom. :) My kitchen will be done in red and white. I love the coutry feel of Red and White kitchens with roosters for the theme. It makes me feel homey and I love that. My clothes reflect me. I wear lots of pale pink. It makes me happy and I feel good when I am dressed in pink.

I agree with you littleowl, colours do reflect in a sense about our personilities or how we may be feeling at that particular moment. However today I am wearing all black as I like to feel slim again lol, after my bulging tummy has dramatically disappeared. I also have alot of light blue tops like yourself, I think this might mean I like to have a calm and peaceful life. Sometimes when I am happy I have a few yellow clothes, I notice when I wear them that always lifts my spirits. With the house, well I am renting off mum, so I can't paint it myself. However I noticed when I put colourful flowers around the house the other day, the atmosphere of the house feels alot fresher and happier.

I always tend to wear dark clothes, at first I wore dark clothes because I had put a lot of weight on a few years back and dark colours seem to hide it more, well in my mind it did. Now I have lost all the weight, but I still wear dark clothes! must be just habit now I guess. We moved to the house we are in 2 years ago and I still have not decorated everywhere yet from the previous owners tastes, but the rooms I have done are magnolia, with all bright accessories, I love bright colours for the house, but dark colours on myself, so I dont know what that portrays about me!

I always look for different soft shades of blue when buying clothes or some springgreen shades. also I love mauve and lavendar and some softer shades of purple. I know that my blues and greens sort of translate into serenity and peace.I hate the color yellow and orange. I don't know just what the lilac and mauves mean in my life but have used these colors on walls. i sometimes wear black with soft blue. I too used many colors when we had our house so maybe I also have some confusion in my life but I love soft blues and soft lilac colors.
