Fill in the Blank Friday: COLOR!

Today is Fill in the Blank Friday over at The Little Things We Do...

Today's topic is "Color," which, frankly, is hard. I love colors, but I'm such a non-artistic person that I sort of fizzle out in the "commitment" department when it comes to using them.

Anyway. Here are today's seven blanks:

1.  My favorite color is  Gosh. I have NEVER been able to answer this satisfactorily. It changes constantly, with my mood, with my hair color and with the seasons. I'm a total sucker for the "new" colors each season, and I always look at my old nail polishes or eye shadows or shoes and think, "Ew. Last season's color." Not that I can afford to do anything about it... 

Distracted tangents? Yes. I has them. 

Blue. We'll go with blue. 

2.   My home decor color palette includes Nothing interesting (broke grad students who are moving across country in seven weeks). But, if I had my druthers, I'd have it awash in non-pukey neutrals with pops of intense, rich jewel tones. Like a vanilla colored couch with deep purple throw pillows.

3.  Other people always tell me I look good in the color Hmmm... lots of colors. Though I probably get the most compliments on the bluish-green shades and bright, fire engine red. I know. Opposites. I'd like to thank my combo of light skin/dark eyes for the ability to pull that off.
  
4. The color I detest is Gold. I know, I know, people think it looks rich and decadent. I think it looks tacky. 

5. If you were to look in my closet most of the colors you'd see would be  I actually arrange my clothes by color, so I know that I actually have something in pretty much every color. But, there's more black, blue and green than the others.

6. A color that I simply cannot pull off no matter how hard I try is 
Gold. Admittedly, I don't try all that hard (see #4), but still.

7.  The color of my favorite dress is  Gray, with a greenish undertone to it. It sounds kind of depressing, but it's not. It's gorgeous.

  3. Colors can be really hard to "get" if you're not blessed with it... which I'm not. It's a lot of hard work for me :)
    hope you had a good weekend!
