If you’ve read my blog or followed my styling journey, you probably know one thing for sure:  green is my favourite colour . But let’s be honest, wearing a full green outfit doesn’t always work. I’m not talking about evening gowns or jumpsuits, where colour unity is easier. I mean  day-to-day wear,  outfits for work, formal events, and even stylish at-home looks. My deep love for green led me to explore new ways to keep it in focus without overwhelming the outfit.  The solution? Pairing the colour with neutral, monochromatic tones like black or white.

I remember laughing a little when I saw the looks on their faces, a mix of disappointment and confusion. How could their expert teacher (from their point of view), who always gave them new and interesting information, say something so… obvious? But I kept my cool and moved on to the secondary colors. That’s when the magic happened.  We used colored playdough and began mixing:  • 🟢 Green (Yellow + Blue) • 🟣 Purple (Red + Blue) • 🟠 Orange (Red + Yellow) Their faces began to light up with excitement! Then we explored the tertiary colors, made by mixing a primary with a secondary.  With each new mix, their excitement grew, and mine did too. At that point,  I realized something powerful; color speaks to someth...
