Today, for some reason, I'm in a green mood.While not my favorite color, I do enjoy it. Most prominently found in nature, the color green embodies rich foliage, lush greenery and vast landscapes. This earthly hue is commonly associated with Mother Earth, which is why it's thought to be calming and ubiquitous. Offering relaxation, green often soothes with it's gentle and peaceful undertones. It's also a natural healer. When on the face of goods, green makes consumers feel safe and hopeful. Regarded as a kind and caring color, green doesn't enjoy ruffling feathers. Instead the color maintains order. Mayhem and green don't mesh well, which is why this warmhearted color assumes the role of peacemaker. Anger diminishes when the color green is present. I highly like using green in interiors, but I like it mostly in objects and furnishings. I'm not a fan of green on walls. If green is on the walls, one must be carful with the shade as it can cast awful coloring on to our skin, which is one reason it's the worst color for a bathroom, especially when women and men apply make up. I think for today, I may grab my green square cuts and lay out at the lake, in all the lush greenery and listen to the water roll in from the lake.
I want the green rococo house! Green Speedo can deliver it.
ReplyDeleteCan one be green with envy and still be calm? Things that make you go hmm. I love lush, dark greens. Mint, lime and baby poop green make me wanna barf (green vomit, of course). Did I ruin the mood? I love that top picture! I can see myself lounging nekkid while a T-rex peaks in. See, I can't just lounge in peace!
ReplyDeleteThe T-Rex might like what he sees! And lime green....meh.
DeleteWhat? No Poison Ivy picture? I was surprised not to see one here. Hope you're Monday goes well.
ReplyDeleteLike me she is probably in her lair....
DeleteI love green!!!!! But I agree with the walls. I painted the walls a green once and it was awful on the lighting. So the room got repainted with green touches and I loved it. I also wouldn't mind that green straw hat. I love hats. Loved this collection.
ReplyDeleteIm liking that hat too Agnes.
DeleteI have no idea why, but nothing looks more chic to me then a crushed velvet dark green sofa. As a fellow interior designer, I find green very nice but it is often a color hard to work with because of natural lighting. It can also dull a room. I like different greens together, which seems to help.
ReplyDeleteWOW! Love this board! The green interiors look so rich and swanky. But that first is totally amazing.
ReplyDeleteThis just drives home the fact that I just love green. And that vinatge car.
ReplyDeleteYes, yes, yes! 👏🏻 While green may not be my favorite color... I can appreciate it for sure! 💚
ReplyDeleteI love all the green shades found in nature, but green interior decor and furniture makes me want to vomit. Too institutional.
ReplyDeleteLove the green/gray sitting room.
ReplyDeleteLove it.
I've never gone full-on green and if I ever do it, it may be either a dark green or a chartreuse. I'm into extremes.
XOXO
I used to be a Blue but several years ago I started liking green more, and I'm still a Green ... though my favorite color, like my mood, is black.
ReplyDeletePS Love the green chaise!
I LOVE green anything. But walls. That said I'm too afraid to use green in fear I'll hate it...so I go too is tons and tons of green plants. Though I did just purchase a dark green side chair and look looks great. Will we get lake pictures? Or are you nude?
ReplyDeleteGreen is a great color to be today I think.
ReplyDeleteGreen is a very soothing colour, all things considered.
ReplyDeleteGreen is my signature color, Mistress, and I love every shade presented here. Now If I could get my big ass to fit in that convertible.
ReplyDeleteI am also loving green! Maybe because of Summer!
ReplyDeleteaww I am now totally greenified! And so I shall paint my nails green later on henny.
ReplyDeleteViva green! My all time favorite colour - what a gorgeous tribute to it's loveliness! That evening gown- it makes my mouth water Sweetie! Hope you're having a super Monday. XO's
ReplyDelete"All week long we're wondering who
ReplyDeleteLeft a green Givenchy gown in the loo."
As a garden fanatic, of course I love green. Just not for men's clothes, wallpaper or bedding...

I agree...green can be tricky to wear in clothing.
DeleteThe FGES are green! I am just saying - before remembering them I was going to say that green is very stylish.
ReplyDeleteAnyhow - love that car, and all the sofas.
Sx
I should have included a picture of those too! Damn it.
DeleteIf you are still in a green mood you can come over and sit in my conservatory, which is done up in green (think William Morris Blackthorn), while looking out onto the greenery of the garden.
ReplyDeleteI would love that Helen!!!!!!
DeleteGreen is my fave color. I love that big hat, and the man, of course.
ReplyDeleteI like the kitty cat. And that last one... to die(?) for? :) Kizzes.
ReplyDeleteSoothing, calming green. Ahhhh....
ReplyDeleteNow, if only my living room looked like the one in the first picture. Yes. I know: green is the colour of envy, too!
