WoC2: Dark Raspberry

I give up. I can’t get Willis to wear anything but pants. And that’s really all the information I have for you about this week’s colour, save for the fact that I covet Arbs’s hair. Oh, and that The Panted Lady has made poses for your colours, available at Frooti for just $50L – I’m using one of them on the left. Go grab!

Shocking, I know… Willis is in her pants again. Arbs and I move to rename this challenge to: “52 Weeks of Willis’s Underhenge”. Still, at least she put a nice jumper on this time, so she won’t get a chill to the nips.

Meanwhile, the rest of us have lovely pink frocks on, for your colour-related amusement. Pretty, yes?

WoC2: Patina and Alice Blue

We’re all still feeling blue here at Weeks of Colour (see what I did there? Yes? Not good? I’ll get my coat), although some of us less so than others. I refer you to Willis, who, once again, has defied us all to run around in her undercrackers and a monkey hat.

And so here we are, with Patina and Alice Blue: a bluey-green, a bluish-white and a primate.

WoC2: Electric Indigo & Iron

When ‘iron’ came up as a colour, Arbel suggested we all dress up in armour and look deadly and gorgeous all at the same time. She did a wonderful job of it, unlike me, who didn’t own any armour and had to resort to a dress that looks a bit chain mail-like and a sword I begged from a friend. I did better than Willis, though, who isn’t wearing ANY ARMOUR AT ALL. Naughty. She has a banana avatar but no shield?

Anyway, that explains our weird and wonderful contributions this week… pretty, no?

Weeks of Colour 2: Champagne & Coral

Here we go again: Weeks of Colour has returned, and once gain the three of us have been reduced to staring at our inventories, wondering how in the name of all things prim Luna manages to pick colours that don’t exist. It’s true, she does. Seriously.

Nevertheless, despite being late and our usual colourblind selves, we have muddled our way through, made ourselves look pretty and arranged ourselves in a whole new and exciting manner in order to please and amuse your eyes, lovely readers. Welcome to 2012: it promises to greatly resemble 2011 when it comes to challenge.

WoC: Five Colours, Fifteen Colours, ALL THE COLOURS

The last challenge for the Weeks of Colour group was to make a collage of our favourite 15 outfits from all the ones we’ve put together over the last year. As there are three of us, however, we weren’t quite sure how to make that work without posting 45 pictures or arguing until next Christmas (and no doubt giving up and dressing as bits of fruit instead) so, instead, we are very pleased indeed to bring you… something entirely different that doesn’t meet the challenge at all. Ta da!

As Arbs and I were late to the party, we didn’t get to create looks for the first few colours – so here they are now. Ten new colours to round out our challenge, and Willis will be following up shortly with her pick of our five best looks. If that sodding banana picture is in there, we’re going to be having words.

It’s iffy logic, we know, but you do get 15 different looks, ten of them new, and we have now (pretty much) finished the 52 Weeks of Colour challenge, so I’m going to forgive us on all of your behalves, k?

First up, Arbel, who came up with this rather nifty way to showcase the five colours.

Which I was so taken by, I thieved it for my own five colours. Obviously. Mine, as I am a firm believer murdering several birds with one small stone, and because I have such an abundance of goodies and want to make sure you get the opportunity to canter off in excitement to buy them all, includes a large number of Vintage Fair items – anything marked with a * in the credits is currently only available there, as far as I am aware.

52 WoC – Cream

Ah, the penultimate week of the challenge – and what a shame! I don’t feel that we’ve even scratched the surface of all the colours we could mutter about trying to match yet.

Still, we’ve outdone ourselves for this, the last but one, by not only posting in time, but in the correct colors and without resorting to posting three at once. Wonders will never cease.

Can we keep this up for the last in the series? Only the lord knows…

Apologies for the lack of SLURLS, I will try and get on top of this but right now, I don’t have the time <3

52 WoC – Melon, Apricot & Jazzberry

I apologise in advance, but I shall be blogging these three colours out of their intended order (as well as very late. Not that this will surprise anyone – we’re a bunch of Tail End Charlies and no mistaking). I have good reason for this: as I was putting the pictures together, I noticed that, despite two of us taking the pictures at the same time, and all of us working from the same colour palettes, we appear to have suffered from increasing levels of confusion.

First, we have Jazzberry. No real problems here, aside from the usual disagreement over colour interpretation, and some slight background issues.

52 W0C: Jazzberry

Next up, Apricot, and here the problems began. Willis and I were having trouble telling the difference between Melon and Apricot… and thus, though Arbel managed to get the background correct, despite taking her pictures at a completely different time, my background colour is entirely different to Willis’s.

52 WoC: Apricot

And finally, Melon, which is frankly a knickerbocker glory of shades. The pictures Willis sent over of my outfits were the wrong way round and I’m not 100% convinced, even now, that I’ve got hers correct. Apparently, if it ain’t from opposite sides of the colour wheel, we can’t tell the difference. Pretty though, right? What can I say: we’re cute, not that bright.

52 WoC Lemon and Patriarch

Hello! Sorry for the delay, once again!
With lemon being such a fun color, we sort of let our personas shine through, and not by dressing up as lemons, though very tempted. Me, I am Grungy Lemon. Wizzlit, Scholar Lemon. And Willis, well…she deemed herself Whore Lemon. I can’t see why.

WoC - Lemon

Patriarch, for me, is such a rich and regal color, the color of royalty. So how appropriate for us to dress up as…nothing that I just described.

WoC - Patriarch

Our looks are hot though, we are ready to go out…to different places.

Guess what? I got creds!! But Willis really has better photo skills, so I’m sorry if the pics aren’t up to par!
