My Colors Today Are Green and Red

What are your immediate thoughts when you see the colors green and red together? Like this picture below...


Most would no doubt think of the Holiday, but there are so many other things to associate these two colors with...


Green is...the color of nature.
Green is balance, freshness, and outdoors. It is beneficial in all healing situations...it is exactly where green scores.





Green is for harmony, gratitude, and appreciation.


Green plants are appealing. Green is new...green is new life...green is life!

Red is...feeling brave with all your might. Red is courage.


Red is hotness sometimes you feel inside when you're embarrassed and you want to hide.


Red is...passion, excitement, vitality and action


Red is a show-off color...no doubt about it!


Red is...confidence, satisfaction...it displays love, beauty and affection. Red is a healing color...red brings warmth and comfort. It is courage, blood, desire.
Red is for danger and for fire...


But, is it a color that can be lived without?
 

Red is the giant-est color of them all! Red and Green really are the colors of Merriment...Happy Holiday!

Warmest of Regards,
Loretta

My Color Today Is Black

Good Morning My Pretties! What a lovely day it is!

My color today is one that is so misunderstood...by myths, folk lore the color black...and what it signifies. However, for me, blackness is the only color with the power to hold memories...to endure forgetfulness.  Black is...

                         Beauty in Animals



                  
                                             In Food

         
                     Isn't He Beautiful?

                               
                                             Perfection...


                   
                               Magnificent

                                
                                 A Black Gothic Dress

                   
                         A Beautiful Black Rose


                        A Black Galaxy


                                 Johnny A

             
                          A Black Room

          
                            More Black Berries?


                                         Lux Car

It can't be denied...Black is elegant, it is timeless, lithe and lasting.
Black is rich, appealing, and cool...it is the color black!
  Black is a starless night; Black kindles with mystery. Black is expression.
It is what it is...whatever you decide...it's still the color Black!
How do you feel about the color Black? Can it be your color?

Have a Wonderful Week! Love You Too!

My Love Affair with Hats

   I love, love beautiful and colorful hats! Honestly, I don't wear them as I did when younger, however, I still have that special feeling about them.
  Women have adorned themselves with beautiful head-dress from back-in-the-day until now. I admire a woman who can wear and look good in the fashionable hats of today...because some of them, shall I say, are quite...wild! Those that are termed "church" hats have gotten to be quite colorful as well.

Admittedly, I really had a love affair with the "cloche". Even now, I find myself pulling one down from the closet to try it on...you know...checking myself out in the mirror. LOL.  Well, that's as far as it goes these days. That reflection that comes back to me isn't the same as that youthful, demure, look of earlier times, honestly.
Here are some beautiful cloche...they are quite stylish:


 There's an art to wearing a cloche. It fits closely with a floppy brim...the hat is designed to be worn low on the forehead and structured so that you must tilt your head and peer down your nose to see...This gives the wearer a slightly...haughty look.

 The cloche was quite popular during the 20's, but are slowly making their way back into fashion. This handmade one is adorned with flowers, buttons, etc. I love the colors.

Check out these Pretties that may strike your fancy









                                               











 

 Let's face it ladies, we wear what make us look and feel good! If the latest fashionable hat is the ticket, then wear it and wear it well!  
 Southern women are known for doing so, I suppose taking a cue from our neighbors across the ocean...wearing hats for the sake of wearing hats. Well, if you are going to be fashionable as others... always choose the best, right? If the hat fits...    Enjoy!

Have a super weekend and love love your family and friends! Give your pet a hug from us! Love You Softly!
