I was rushing to an appointment when I caught these two colors in my periphery. I can only imagine what someone who was watching me thought. There I was half running when I halted to a stop half a block after passing this young woman. I quickly turn back to fully take in what captured my attention. I thought to myself, of course, makes complete sense.
I love these two colors together. Just the day before I took this picture, someone asked me, how do you know what colors go together? I was wearing a salmon sweater, a hot pink tank top and orange and blue bangles. Sounds weird as I described it, but it worked. I responded, well, if it works in nature, it'll work in life. I told her to think of a sunset, or of the brilliant colored fish in the movie Finding Nemo or to think of her favorite flowers...I don't know if she bought my response, as she looked very skeptical. In any case, I'm really digging the purple and yellow together.
OMG. That's my friend Faye. COOOLLLL!!!!
ReplyDeleteLA Lakers colors...and probably many other teams have them!
ReplyDeleteI totally agree! I love and have always loved those colours together. Maybe cos they are my favourites :-)
ReplyDeleteNow, although I am an amateur at this, I have realized that colors work together based on the pieces. You're right, the bag and the pants work well. But, you only know if colors/pieces work well once they are all together. I remember when I asked you if certain colors could blend and you said "I need to see the outfit." Now, I totally get it :-)
ReplyDeleteDas my friend Faye tooooo!
ReplyDeleteKimya and Caitlin---I took this picture very quickly, and was in such a rush that I didn't ask Faye her name. Darn! I'm glad to know her name.
ReplyDeleteJudy--You're right those are Lakers colors! I didn't put the two together.
BMP--If it works in nature it'll work in reality...the only issue becomes whether or not the colors go with your skin tone. just an added complication :-)
Color Theory at it's best. Yellow/purple, red/green, blue/orange. Brava!
