Favorite Color--SPT

My color preferences definitely coincide with the seasons, which means they change profoundly at least four times a year. Right now with summer here I am in love with bright summery colors, but by fall I will scorn them and be drawn to all the warmth the fall colors have to offer. Apparently my color tastes are a bit fickle, but I'm okay with that.


I love colorful flip flops and bright pink toe nails in the summer!


I love the contrast of the blue and white on the lane divider at the pool.

I love the bright, summery slides and the fun the color seems to convey.


I love the various shades of yellow seen on flowers throughout the season.


I really love all the different shades of green, this is one of my favorites.


But my tried and true, nonchanging favorites are the colors in my house. The trusty black, the tomato red and the matte white. This picture is pretty much a self-portrait.

I felt like I nodded at every picture you posted. Very you.

First to comment? Woohoo!

michelle said...

Awesome. My very favorites were the last two. It's too hard to pick a favorite, but I guess if I did it would have to the many shades of green. That last photo IS like a self-portrait! (and one I could look at again and again forever -- and no, I have not given up on doing my own photo wall!)

Michelle Alley said...

Just posted my fav color! Those pictures are so great, you really captured the contrasting colors and I love the pictures of the green flower - beautiful! Great combo of pics on your wall. Lovely post.

Elizabeth said...

Beautiful! How fun that you took pictures when you were out of the colors that caught your eye. I love that wall of your home. It says a lot about you. Definitely a self portrait.

I too love those bright summery colors. They are always so fun and cheery and appealing to look at.

I couldn't agree more with the red, white and black. I did something similar :)

Rebekah said...

You have such nice little feet! I would never post a picture of my man-feet.

Unknown said...

i love the summery colors! but i was not surprised at all by your black/tomato/white wall!!

j said...

i love your photo wall! i have a large blank wall in my house and i never thought of doing something like that. it's beautiful!

i have to agree that i love the shades of green photo, too. your photography skills are fantastic!

This is why it's so hard to commit to a favorite color: you feel like you are rejecting the other colors. But they are all so beautiful and fun and easily put you in a good mood. I just love color period (even if red really is my favorite one).

I love the wall of photos in your house. I want to have a gallery like that of my own one day.

I posted about my fave color today as well. I have to admit, I had you pegged for green. I guess I assumed that since your blog was green that it must be your fave.

Love your green photo! And I love your photo wall! Looks even more fantastic in person! ;-)
I thought it clever to have your self portrait in flip flops with a dandelion! Too cute!
Hope you are on the mend!

andrea said...

Loved all your colors, especially the fun flip flops and toe nails. I am envious of your summer spent at seven peaks. my kids would love that. Also love the trusty black and red.

Your cute spt is SO vivid! Love the shots ;)

Diana said...

love your pictures. I too vary in my choice of favorite color.
I love your toes they look so cute.

melanie said...

I love your photos from the pool. I'm always leary of taking my nice camera there. But I think my favorite photo is the green one. Very cool!

I want my own photo wall but haven't taken it on. Yours is really inspiring and I love the look. One day...

Barb said...

Great pictures - my favorite is the lane divider from the pool.

And, I just finished a photo wall in my bedroom - I totally got the confidence to try it from seeing a picture of your photo wall awhile back. I'm really happy with how mine turned out, so thanks for the boost!

One of these days I'm going to have to do a post of all the blog inspired stuff I've done, or maybe a running list on my side bar? Not sure how I'll do that exactly . . .

Kristen said...

Your SPT post put mine to shame-heehee, what great photos!!!

Mandy said...

I love your pink toes in your flip flops. My feet are so gross right now. They always seem to be covered in paint from our living room. I'm not a careful painter for sure. Great pics!

Laurie said...

Very cool that your color preferences go with the seasons. I love your shades of green shot, and of course the picture wall is ALWAYS pleasing!

carlo said...

finally got my spt posted. i adore your pictures-- you captured so many great colors.

the pic wall is great and has been a long time planned project. your's is an inspiration...

TX Girl said...

Great demonstration of your favorite colors. I especially love those fancy toes in those darling flip flops.

I have yet to post an SPT. I think I'll just post a giant one with all the previous challenges.

Elisa said...

I really love the blue/white picture, it's really pleasing to me. I have been trying to decide whether blue is really my favorite color. Maybe that heps answer my question.

Your feet really are cute.

michelle said...

I forgot that I wanted to say -- I hope the photos you've taken with your new camera put an end to your decreased confidence as a photographer, once and for all!!

Beautiful pictures to demonstrate your favorites of the season.
