Birthday Colours

Today in Canada, it's Victoria Day, a stat holiday (bank holiday in UK, not sure what it's called in US) to celebrate the Queen's birthday.  It's not really her birthday, just the day that we recognize that the Queen does have a birthday.

While surfing the 'net the other day, I read an interesting post about wearing your colours. I thought it had to do with our colour season (Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall), but no. In Thailand, everyone has a birthday colour, and it's supposed to be lucky if you wear your colour on your birthday or on special occasions.

I did an image search in Google to find some colour examples. There are all sorts of shade variations, and lots of different styles, so there is something for everyone.

Monday - Yellow
Tuesday - Pink
Wednesday - Green
Thursday - Orange
Friday - Blue
Saturday - Purple & Black
Sunday - Red




My birthday colour is Pink, and I love pink! What is your birthday colour and do you wear it on your birthday?   Check this link if you're not sure what day you were born: http://www.mathsisfun.com/games/dayofweek.html.

Peachy Keen

Today's Visible Monday was also a peachy Monday.  I have a sweater-y top which I quite like the shape of.  It has a relatively high waist and looks quite nice on.  But, it has a such a super low v-neck that it needs a tank under it.  The v-neck goes down past the bottom of my bra! - who would wear it like that?  So I wore a ruffled tank under it.  You can just barely see it in the photo:

what i wore


It still seemed a bit bare at the neck, so I added a big scarf.  And then a ruffled cardigan for warmth.
I felt quite feminine and colourful all day.
