Teal, emerald, burgundy

[AmandaYVR]

See my response to Spiffy_and_Tails for core green traits.

Teal
 A dark blue-green. Darker than turquoise (and more calm, even)
 Teal takes its name from the teal duck, a petite freshwater fowl found in Europe, Asia, and North and South America. In certain breeds, the male's eyes are ringed in the attention-getting hue during mating season. This is known as "nuptial plumage" because it is meant to attract females
 A transitional colour, bridging blue and green
 Meditative, mysterious, graceful, sophisticated
 Turquoise + twilight = teal
 Pair with red, magenta, yellow, silver
 Can be either stately or more contemporary and fun, depending on what other colours you pare it with. Can be loud or quiet and sedate

Emerald
 Emerald is synonymous with wealth, prosperity and luxury, so it works with other colours that evoke the same air of richness and elegance. Many other jewel tones mix well with emerald green, but in particular deep blues and shimmery golds and brass; Plays well with lacquers such as black; A great colour to punctuate all-white; Works well with deep blues and golds
 Pantone colour of the year for 2013
 In places like Bogota, where merchants sell emeralds out on the street (so they can be seen through natural light), the darker the stone, the higher the value
 A rich jewel tone
 Dramatic
 Elegant
 Brings a sense of clarity, renewal and rejuvenation
 Malachite is a good, complex example, coming from a natural stone with some figuring, and also some shade variations

[leahzrc]

a pale pastel pink color or periwinkle

[AmandaYVR]

Carrie Bradshaw, Sarah Jessica Parker, Sex and the City


For the pastel pink see female user TheLittleInnocent

Periwinkle is playful, sprightly, whimsical.
For the blue colour theory see my reply to male user mk200195

[leahzrc]

periwinkle is a pale blue purple grey color not whatever he said

[OC_99]

White. And sure, go ahead.

[AmandaYVR]

Oh gee, thanks.

[Jjpayne]

That is quite a lot to take in... But all great info! It's pretty awesome! I'd like to see this in a my take. To see everything in one place. But what you have done here is very cool in it's own sense

[Miristheiss]

Red.
Always liked it.

[AmandaYVR]

See my reply to pink user LilytheHorcrux for the red

[coffeewithcream]

Plaid.

[AmandaYVR]

 It's timeless and screams fall, warm, and cozy
 Originally called Tartan by the Scottish in the 1500s. When British and American manufacturers started replicating the tartan print, they began calling it plaid
 While all tartans are plaid, not all plaids are tartan
 Classic and conservative
 Pairs well with florals
 Plaid may have had its biggest moment in the '70s when it was used on everything from shirts to suits to chairs – all evident in hit shows like The Brady Bunch and Charlie's Angels. But the pattern didn't remain mainstream for long. In the late '80s, it was adopted by counterculture musicians in the Pacific Northwest, with grunge bands like Nirvana and Pearl Jam appropriating the print. Then, in the mid-90s, came Clueless, the movie in which wealthy, popular, Beverly Hills teens made the print posh once more

You appreciate tradition and unpretentious relaxed comfort with a nod to the past.

[coffeewithcream]

That's great!
I suspected a plaid jacket would go well over a Hawaiian floral print shirt.
And shorts.
:)

[AmandaYVR]

Yep. Mixing bold patterns is actually very on trend, too. Makes them less... stuffy.

Sea foam has a lot of white added to it. It is soft and somewhat creamy, not bright, not deep, and more soft.

Plum 😊

[AmandaYVR]

See my response to Guardian45 for purple core theory.

Variations:
 Variations are diverse and complex
 At their most dark, they are dramatic and theatrical
 Paler versions like lilac are more conventional and restful
 Mid- to deeper or greyed-down versions are mysterious, mystical, inscrutable
 Lighter hues such as lavender and mauve are wistful and nostalgic
 The darker the shade, the more sophisticated
 Blue-based purples are less pinkish, less passionate, and more sober
 Leaning to the blue side, it has more dignity and serenity
 Dark purples are formal and Victorian
 Deeper purples and violets have a powerful yet introspective association
 Dusky purples feel adult and moody
 Keep tones a bit muddy. Anything too clear or bright runs the risk of looking too carnival

Plum is a softer, more mellow variety of the purples, greying it out just a tad.

Plum:
 A mix of red and blue, so plum tends to go well with colours that mix with them as well
 Dynamic
 Full-bodied
 Surprisingly versatile
 If you use plum in large doses, red won’t be able to overtake it
 Warm
 Works well with red and deep blue or indigo
