Creating a color palette

*For those of you who saw “palate” when it first went out… apparently spell check doesn’t cover “lack of caffeine”. I completely forgot that there is “palate: roof of mouth” and “palette: color”

Thanks to @ksablan and @ShelleyDelayne
for helping find my error!

Life is about color, from what you wear to your website design. Many of us hear ‘color palette’ and assume we are talking graphic design. But what about the color palette of your office and work clothes? Shouldn’t you give themĀ  just as much attention as the space your website lives on?

I find that when working in an environment that is filled with color and a well created color palate, that I am more creative and enjoy working for longer. Dingy, dreary atmospheres are horrible for me to work in. Same thing for my apparel. If I don’t like the outfit that I am in, it affects my mood.If I am in bright, fun colors, I have a bright, fun mood. Soft fabrics mellow me out, and flowy skirts make me more visually driven.

What is my color palette today?
