A periwinkle blue, worn by Cinderella in the Ladybird book of my childhood.

I've never forgotten it, it's somewhere in my DNA now I think.

I love blue too. Oceanic blue for me.

LucyLatimer · 07/08/2021 22:07

I remember that picture in the ladybird book too, was beautiful

The blue sky in Sydney

It’s different to here the blueness of it

Sunset in the Sahara just breathtaking beautiful colours (sorry not one colour)

Yves Klein Blue mesmerises me.

I remember that book and that dress it really was beautiful.

The blue froth over the edge of a ferry - grey, blue, green, white all in one- gorgeous.

ButtonRose · 07/08/2021 22:11

I loved that book.

I love ferries! We get one regularly and I call it the Bryan.

I had to google Yves Klein, oh my gosh. That is intense.

Ocean blue for me too- when it is turquoise with the sun glinting off it.

SparklingLime · 07/08/2021 22:13

I remember that too! 💙💙

Dinkydody · 07/08/2021 22:13

Cornflower blue ☺️

MichelleScarn · 07/08/2021 22:15

@PamDenick I've posted above I think!

MorrisZapp · 07/08/2021 22:16

That's it! Also mesmerised by the blue dress in The Party, in fact every page of it was thrilling.

It's funny I had a Disney book, from the 60s I think, that featured Cinderella in a yellow dress. I loved that dress.

SunSeaSurfGin · 07/08/2021 22:18

Mauve purple that was the colour of a marble in a game of kerplunk at my childminders when I was 4.

I didn't like the childminder but I loved and still love the colour purple in particular that shade

FreddieLounds · 07/08/2021 22:18

The shade of an eau de nil silk dress I had when I was in my 20s. I wish I still had the dress.

Le Creuset’s teal.

ChardonnaysPetDragon · 07/08/2021 22:19

The bright green of Alchemilla Mollis leaves.

Sunset on the beaches in Fuerteventura - beautiful purple mists over the sand.

RudeAF · 07/08/2021 22:28

Busy in Yves Klein blue. I stared at it for ages when I saw it in person.
