turquoise.

the color of the day today is turquoise.

turquoise is a mix of blue and green and it has the same calming effects of these colors also relating back to its connection with the ocean. turquoise has a sweet feminine feel while the darker teal shades add lively sophistication. it also relates to creative expression, healing, independence, and generosity.

the shades of turquoise that are on the greener side are some of my favorite colors. i have never been a big fan of the turquoise stone...and that tends to be on the bluer side, so i guess that is why. but these are just some nice images that represent the color well!
