peacocks envy : part ii
I’m working on a project right now that is conjuring up images of peacocks ( . . . Arctic ocean storms, too – but that’s another post). Peacocks are such sensual looking creatures. Blacks, greens, turquoise, and blues that I imagine you can only find in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. So dreamy and absolutely stunning. There is something about a peacock that makes me hold my breath. To hold onto that feeling, that magical moment of falling in love and not wanting to disrupt the moment.
I love the possibility of mixing the “hot” color of the season, turquoise, with a more traditional color, like green. Using an unexpected color combination makes an outfit look so . . . current. I found myself wearing a peacock inspired color combi as I strolled out after my mid-day change of clothes . . . feeling invigorated and fresh on a beautiful spring afternoon. And later still, it was to my surprise that I found it Right There in Front of Me, Green . . . . on some of the most influential people in fashion. Feeling the wave?

I just saw these photos last night! I love the colors of peacocks- emerald green especially. In fact, my logo for “Taylor Moseley” was inspired by the colors of peacocks. I’ll send it to you; it was just completed. White peacocks are also very beautiful and super stunning. Did you know that peacocks mate for life? They are monogamous.
