I am not really blue and not really green…what color am I?

You must be the color turquoise! Pantone picked turquoise as 2010’s color of the year. I cannot wait to see all the different palettes that turquoise will be a part of in weddings in 2010!

So is turquoise blue or green or both? Ask a few people and you will get a different answer every time. Here’s the definition from Free Dictionary:

tur·quoise (tûrkwoiz, -koiz) n

1. A blue to blue-green mineral of aluminum and copper, mainly CuAl6(PO4)4(OH)8·4H2O, prized as a gemstone in its polished blue form. (Come again?)

2. A light to brllliant bluish green. (Perfectly explained!)

Turquoise is a brillianty beautiful color that compliments and works well as a cool accent or a vibrant main color in your wedding palette (I love cherry red paired with turquoise for major pizazz!). I used it as a cool accent color in this beach theme muse board created on Style Me Pretty.
