In my deep purple dreams...

Last night,  'in my deep purple dreams',  I saw myself wearing purple, yellow and so many more.
So this morning I'm wearing purple, yellow, green and pink and not to forget the neutrals!!

Before I had an yellow addiction, purple was ( and still is) my favorite color and co-incidentally yellow is an excellent contrast, and hence a great companion of purple. I have lost count how many times I've paired these two colors.

Let me show you the color wheel to give you a better idea of how these colors work.

 1. Complementary Colors:
As per the color wheel, purple and yellow are directly opposite and hence considered complementary colors. Other examples are- red and green, blue and orange.

2. Analogous colors:
Analogous colors are any three colors which are side by side on a 12 point color wheel, for example green, yellow-green and yellow.

3. Primary colors:
Red, Yellow and Blue are considered as the primary colors.

4. Secondary Colors:
Green, orange and purple are the secondary colors.

5. Tertiary Colors:
All others other than the primary and secondary colors.

The color wheel is a good way to learn how to color-block for those who are not confident with colors.
Pairing the complementary colors is a bright, bold way of color blocking. If you want to play it safe you can stick to the analogous colors, i.e. colors of the same family.
Other than that, you can play with the primary colors and the secondary colors, and if you are as adventurous as myself, just do not bother what the color wheel says, pick up any two or three colors of your choice ( as long as they look good together) and  rock them!!
In addition to that, the best way of color blocking is to wear solids but you can always twist it a little by wearing prints with solids.
For me, I believe in chucking the rules and wearing whatever makes me happy and hence today I'm making my deep purple dreams come true!

Sunshine on my shoulders....

Nope, this Monday I'm not feeling the blues yet, as it is the hub's birthday tomorrow and I'm all excited!

As I have already mentioned before, I'm addicted to yellow these days and please excuse me if you spot more yellow in my outfits in the coming days. Not that wearing yellow is like committing a crime or something, just that I do not  want to bore you all with the same color everyday!
It was only in the month of April this year that I realized, even though I love yellow, there is a dearth of it in my closet.  Then I went on a mission to bring in some sunshine in to my closet, and today there is an abundance of bright, happy sunshine.
Oh! How I wanna sing out loud- 'Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy..........Sunshine almost always makes me high!'

A rollercoaster named....

Hi everyone,
It is Friday and FUN day, again!

My husband said that the pointy heels made me look like a witch and the fedora like Michael Jackson about to perform!
I was like" Excuse me, you look like a -------!!"
I knew he was pulling my leg but duuuuuhh, can't I be myself for god's sake?

I am a true Gemini, and I wanna be a flirty-feminine girl one day, a quirky-whimsical one the other day, sophisticated and chic the third day and casual-bohemian some other day!
I'm moody, restless and whimsical and I'm truly sorry that the lion in my life has to put up with so many different faces in one single body! ( Not that he complaints, on the contrary, he finds it rather amusing! Good for us!!)
Well, I must also point out, that the lion is not completely devoid of any characteristic flaws, but I strongly feel that the essence of a good marriage is to  'ignore the broken down window sill in a relationship and appreciate the beautiful flowers on it, instead!'
I know that it is  humanly impossible and impractical too to overlook the broken down window sill. So we try, try hard to fix the window sill, but failing to do so, we shift our glances to those beautiful flowers, and once there, we are mesmerized by their beauty, aroma and sheer splendor!

We fight like kids and then make up like adults!
We fight like enemies and then make up like lovers!
I'm so happy to be riding a rollercoaster named..... MARRIAGE, and though the DOWNS are terribly scary, the UPS are frightfully fun too! 

Tell me, do you think fights and disagreements are healthy in a relationship?

Also, today I'm linking up with  Two Thirty-Five Designs  for her Casual Friday link-up.

P.S: When I started to compose this post, I had nothing to write, but it seems that my pen (or rather the keyboard) delivers most words on the days that I originally have nothing concrete in my mind to put down on paper( or rather the computer screen)!

                                                               shirt- GAP    denim- Hollister    bag- Tommy Hilfiger    shoes- Nine West
                                                               necklace- LOFT    watch- Guess    bracelets- gift from my dear friend  (H&M)
                                                               sunnies- Steve Madden    fedora- Maurices    belt- Calvin Klein

Christmas in July...

Christmas in July!
I know the title sounds very cliche' but that is exactly how I felt when I put on the dress and the shoes. I immediately knew that I have to pull in a third color to stop myself from being a walking Christmas tree! and in came the yellow clutch!

I've observed that out of all my colored bags and clutches, I use the yellow ones most. They seem to go with most colors. Be it green, blue, pink or red, yellow always provides a nice pop in any outfit!
I'm afraid that I'm not far from the day when people will start calling me ' the lady with the yellow purse'!!

Tell me, have you been wearing one particular color more lately?
