What color is it anyway?

So, you must have one of those friends in the group who is obsessive about colors. They call lemon – yellow lemon yellow, and maroon -maroon. In that scenario, if you are a person like me who knows only the basic names of colors, and calls a lemon yellow- yellow, and maroon- red, then you can understand how troubled you get when your ignorance is ridiculed to your utmost dismay.

I have found a solution for it. I have noticed there is only one individual who will challenge your naive claims and others will join the bandwagon to pull your legs. So, I have cracked the secret of naming the various shades of colors. And the answer is- start being creative!

Next time you wear a blue t shirt, flaunt it with a statement like,’.. I love this Madagascar blue…you know, I liked it the moment I spotted it’ and when you see your friend wearing a green shade, compliment ‘..oh I like this shade of ginger green’ Oh you can also use the name of your favourite flavour to add it to any color shade , ‘.. where did you get this tangy brown shoes, looks amazing!’

I am liking this approach! I discovered everyone joins the bandwagon when you say it with conviction! You will establish yourself as a color specialist and feel wickedly pleased with it!

And hey, by the way, I really loved this Canterbury White shade on your room’s wall! 😉 Have a great weekend!

  1. I cannot help laughing out at that one. There are too many shades of every colour that I just get tired of learning them.

    Oh and by the way, I love your tangerine pink hair Prab!
