for the love of grey

finally friday

have
i mentioned
i love grey?

i know
black
is the
uber-urban
color
to wear
but
i prefer grey.

nyc: butterpony's place
{butterpony's room}

although
i had a
goth black
period
{i was a child
of the 80s afterall}
i don't wear
black much.
one big reason...
i have
a white cat.

gloves
{birthday gloves for my sister}

i like
that it
is spelled
2 different ways...
so i can
change
the spelling
depending
on my mood.
do you
write
grey
or
gray?

suzy's sweater

sister
a belated
happy birthday!

you all

lovely weekend!

Gray sounds more open, the colour in gray. Grey sound like the foggy part of it to me. I prefer gray, too. Black phase lasted a few weeks (in the 80s...)
Like visiting here!

i say gray more often... but either way, i love it. and that beautiful new sweater, and the way that gray is so pretty on its own, and when it's placed up against another color (like that great yellow in your top pic).

Gray is far more visually interesting than black - it sets the stage for other colors.

I think in the Uk we only say 'grey' so sometimes I like to be a rebel and think 'gray'!...beautiful grey/gray photos...x

I'm particularly fond of grey heathers. The dispersion of color gives it a nice depth, especially if it's in a relatively large area, as in a sweater. Now that I think of it, I don't think I have enough grey in my wardrobe; it seems to be mostly black and brown.

I surley hope that if you have a white cat, that you have grey or white furniture. My kids have a white dog, and the hair is everywhere,cant stand it! boo,hoo, for me.

I had a similar post on my blog, but about grey as an interior design color. I have no idea either if it's grey or gray! Either way, love the post and the blog.

black is so...black, haha,
but since i have skin with yellow tones in it, i really have to watch with what color to combine gray. That's why i love purple! Glad I found your blog, and i like the appearance: clean, minimal style
