It's All About the Colour.....

Shiny, Rainbowy Greetings to All,

Today I think I'll chat about my 'thing' with wearing whatever colour I 'feel' is right for that day and today's colour I would call 'Coral' or if you asked one of my children I think it would be described as "Orangish, Pinkish,Redish" and it feels bright and pretty!
I know that there are definately some other divine kindred souls out there that like to dress in whatever colour they 'feel' they need to wear, but I wonder if other people do it without even realising - even when people choose to wear black consistently that has something to say (and NO it does not just mean that they are morbid or boring!)
The only rare times I will wear black (unless I have to for work) is when I feel like I want to be invisible, that I want to disappear a little from the world and take a little step back. So I guess the fact that I just adore wearing colour means that most of the time I am out there saying "Hello world, look at me!" and I'm not sure that it is a concious thing, that I dress to be 'different' is certainly concious but not necessarily so that I can totally stand out in a crowd but more so I feel like me inside and out. There was a time (not so long ago) that I dressed in a certain way almost in defiance of 'fitting in', it was not a concious action at the time but more for me an action of protection against feeling very vulnerable in the new place in my life that I was stepping into at the time. I feel that I have evolved from that place and I guess as we often do when we are trying out something new, I eventually found a look and style that was truly 'me' as well as what fitted the image I was trying to portray to the world at the time.I do often wonder if other people think this much about everything that they do or if it really is that I need the lobotomy that one of my friends kindly offered to perform once upon a meltdown day!!
Oh, I got a bit off track - oops, how unlike me haha
So today's colour 'coral' now that I think about it, for me is saying a little orange for self confidence and self assuredness (is that a word?!), a little pinkish for love - to invite more love into my life and be loving to others, and a little reddish to ignight a bit of fiery passion to keep me going with kids and holidays and changes and growth....PHEW that's a lot to get from one colour!!
Now that my day is coming to a close it is time for soft fabrics and whatever is comfy who knows what colour tomorrow will bring.............
