My New Happy: Your Favorite Color and You

Your Favorite Color and You


One of my favorite things about spring is all the color.  After a long, gray winter in the Pacific Northwest, I love the bright hues that April brings.

Recently I was cleaning out some old boxes from my college days.  Yes, thank you, they're really old.  I came across an assignment called "what does your favorite color say about you?" from an Interior Design class I took freshman year.  Check out your favorite color and see if it fits your personality.

Those who love Green are often serene, stable and approachable.

Purple is associated with people who are unconventional and creative.  It's also one of the least common colors chosen when people are asked about their favorite.



Orange loving people are outgoing, warm and enthusiastic.  

Pink is actually just a tempered red.  Those who choose this color are usually romantic, sweet and gentle.



Speaking of red, it's usually associated with extroverted, assertive personalities.

Blue lovers are calm, trustworthy and dependable.  This is the most popular "favorite" color!



Those who choose brown are down to earth, reliable and responsible.

Black suggests a person who is strong, sophisticated and sexy.

If you love yellow, your personality is cheerful and energizing.  



White loving people are orderly and fastidious, and others see them as a breath of fresh air.

And finally, gray.  This color is associated with those who are composed and cool.

For me, I have a hard time choosing between pink and yellow, two of my favorite colors. But after re-reading this assignment, I think black should be my new favorite. Apparently if I want to be seen as strong, sophisticated and sexy, I should put on a little black dress.

Does your favorite color match your personality?   I'd love to hear what you think.

Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter weekend.  Bring on spring and all the pretty colors!

  6. I'd be either the blue or the green. They just remind me of nature and calm, which is not at all like my personality funny enough. LOL

    1. Blue and yellow are my favorite color combination (can't tell from my blog design). I love green too, but I'm definitely not very calm.

  7. What a fun topic! I have never had a favorite color. I think I might be a blend of many ... although I am liking purple more now than I ever did. I wonder if that is because writing a blog has provided me with new ways to be creative ? :) Love the photos and colors of this post!

    1. It's interesting that you're drawn to purple during this very creative time of your life!

  8. I'm drawn to pink and red...although the red doesn't really fit my personality. My son loves orange and that pretty much explains his personality to a T.

    1. Since pink is a tempered red, maybe you're an assertive person just waiting to get out :)!

  11. Scarlet says purple and I think it suits her!
    When pressed, I will say red but really it's a cranberry color that's my true favorite. And my favorite color is rainbow. Is that an answer?

  12. I tell people my favorite color is sparkle, and then defend it to my death when they try to argue that it isn't really a color.

  13. This was so nice and interesting. Red is by far my favorite color but I also love blue and yellow. White and gray are my favorite neutrals. I can see bits and pieces of my personality in all of these. I find it strange that purple is a least favorite. I love purple and know many people who have it as their favorite.
