The Color Purple
Lavender is my favorite color. Here are some of the reasons why:
1. Lavender is a feminine color. It is kind and soft and warm.
2. Lavender is not TOO feminine of a color. It has an amount of strength that pink doesn't carry with it.
3. If lavender were music, it would be jazz. It's smoky; romantic; laid back; late night beauty.
4. The color of lavender is complex and indecisive - it can express happiness and sadness at the same time, both emotions being expressed equally well.
5. Lavender is mysterious.
6. Purple is a mix of blue and red - traditionally colors that represent masculinity and feminity. For lavender to be created, white is added- a color that represents purity. Could there be any color more romantic than that?
7. Lavender is a color of royalty - a princess wears lavender.
8. I have hazel eyes. When I wear lavender, the green in my eyes comes alive! It's like I get to be a new girl for the whole day!
And there you have it. Lavender is feminine, strong, expressive, romantic, and magical. Those are just a few reasons why it's my favorite color.
What's YOUR favorite color, and why?

WOW! I love your reasoning. We've already talked about how white is my favorite. I like it for it's rarity - how many things in nature are pure white? - and because it's fragile - you have to be careful with pure white things - and for it's arresting beauty - it catches and holds my eye. And also because it compliements other colors so well - I love black/white, blue/white, red/white, orange/white, green...well, you get the idea :-)
