Clicking Our Heels - Colors!


Clicking Our Heels: Colors

Because our writings open a window into our souls, we thought you’d find it fun to know our favorite colors and why each resonates so much with our inner feelings.

 

Debra H. Goldstein:  Blue. It makes me think of the sky and water meeting which is an absolute moment of peace for me.

 

Lynn Chandler Willis:  Red. It’s kind of a take-no-prisoners, bold, and assertive color.

 

Barbara J. Eikmeier: My favorite color is red. I once read that a bedroom decorated in red will make your bare skin glow in lamplight, and a red kitchen will make your guests feel hungry.

 

Donnell Bell:  Teal. It has been since as long as I can remember. Teal and gray were the colors in my wedding. You will find numerous teal accents in my house.

 

Lynn McPherson:  I love pink and gold. Fun and pretty.

 

Gay Yellen: Earth tones, pastels if they’re not too sweet.

 

Bethany Maines: Probably purple or teal. But I’m a graphic designer by trade, so I’m in love with all colors at the right place and time.

 

Mary Lee Ashford: Turquoise blue and I think it’s probably related to my love of the ocean. I find the color so soothing and serene.

 

Shari Randall: I’m in love with the color of David Austin’s Juliet roses – a soft and warm peach/coral pink. My daughter and I had similar roses in our bridal bouquets.

 

Linda Rodriguez:  Red and purple – can’t choose just one.

 

Anita Carter: I love purple. I also like red and blue, but purple is my favorite.

 

T.K. Thorne: I am attracted to intense colors. Bright yellow, like the deep yellow daffodils or black-eyed susans, has always been a favorite (in fact I wrote a children’s short story once about the color yellow that went missing), but the best is the blue of runways lights and police lights. I have to make myself look away from the latter, especially when I’m driving, because they mesmerize me.

 

Debra Sennefelder: I don’t have a favorite color. Though I do tend to navigate towards blue for decorating.

 

Kathryn Lane: I love vibrant colors, purple, red, and orange; yet when I glance around my living environment and my clothes – I find a lot of blue, in varying hues from turquoise to navy. There’s a vibrant new blue on the market, called YinMn blue, that has a chemical makeup of Yttrium, Indium, and Manganese, making it stunningly bright.


Dru Ann Love: Blue – I associate freedom with the color blue.

 

Saralyn Richard: Red. It’s the color of my stilettos!

 

Robin Hillyer-Miles: My favorite color is this greenish color that I can’t describe. I only know it when I see it. A couple of years ago I was in the car with my mom and I pointed to a building and told her that it was my favorite color. She said that has been my favorite color since I was three years old.

 

Lois Winston: Black – because it’s so slimming!

  2. It always interests me how color stimulates or defines us.

  3. Lois - You picked my go-to wardrobe color. So easy, and of course, the slimming aspect.
