I have
always been a red, black, purple and blue kind of a girl and as a child blue
was my favourite colour. However, a few months ago I got hooked on the colour
orange.
I love
my orange dress and plan to update my wardrobe with some more orange pieces
when I need more clothes. I won’t go for the head to toe tango look and I cannot
wear wishy washy peach tones, but a few good, vibrant orange pieces would be
rather nice.
To be
honest I am also leaning towards the orange accents in stationery too. Paper
clips and post it notes in orange have come up in the sales recently and I am
happy to see that Paperchase has an orange range of stationery in now. My
Filofax “unicorn” is an orange A5 Finsbury, rather elusive but I hope to find
one eventually.
So to
the origins of my blog name. Originally I was going to call it “The Girl in the
Orange Dress” but sadly I discovered there was a book, and an internet link to
the book, of the same name. I wanted a name which didn't reflect just one thing
that I wanted to write about as I didn't want to be tied to one subject. My feeling
was that by allowing myself to write about whatever I chose I gave myself a
larger prospective audience and a more interesting range of subjects.
Restricting myself would be counter productive as I have far too much to say
about so many subjects.
I chose
to put coffee in the title purely because it is my favourite drink and I was
born in 1969 so added that in too. Throwing the three random things together gave
me a unique blog name without narrowing my field of subjects and hopefully
draws in readers as they do not know what to expect.
