Who, What, Ware: "Helloooo Yellow!" Bright ideas for a gift registry

Who: For the person who's a "sunflower" not a wallflower. She's bright and cheery and not afraid of this season's hottest fashion color. Yellow can be intimidating to some, however when you find the right shade it's a color that can work any time.

What: Infuse your table with delightful yellow details. Clear, buttery shades make it perfect for a spring or summer table. Mustard, gold and saffron can warm up your table in the fall.

Ware: Yellow can be found all over tableware. Mix & Match - - - paired with neutral, white, ivory, gray, navy and red. Yellow works as a pop color, and it's brightening up everything on the table this season from glasses, plates, flatware and linens.

When I see yellow - I see my daughter as she has Always loved Yellow.
I am a fan of celedon green and musty pink and that is ME.
So colours can be connected to certain people.
Do you "have a colour"???

Hi ladyjicky, one of my favorite colors is Green - - - emerald, kelly, pea or hunter, I love the hue.

Oh boy, if you pair Green with my signature color combo, black and white...you have instant high drama
and sophistication. Thanks for asking.

I have to join in on your conversation here... One of my favorites has always been green too, but my i tend to be kind of trendy in my favorite colors. I think they change yearly.

A year or so ago it was pink and brown. Lately i'm kinda of over that combo, it seems a little mainstream and mass now. My current fave is yellow and cool grey. (paired with crisp white and black, its just fab!)

My style is primarily classic, but I follow the color trends as well. Cheery yellows paired with bright whites accented by shiny silver...ooohh, I'm all about that.

Brooklit, go to bed!
