A to Z Challenge: Writing Colors - Navajo White



Welcome back to the A to Z Challenge!

This year, I am providing different colors for descriptive purposes in writing using the website Color-ize to look at an alphabetical list of colors that we can use instead of using the same basic colors we know off the top of our heads. One color can come in so many shades, so why not take a look at them?

Today's color is: Navajo White.


Hm...Well, it is a flesh-tone-type color, so...okay. Navajo white is a sandy color of which I can't particularly describe, but I imagine out in Navajo territory, this may be as white as things get? A lot of sun and desert, I think. Scrolling down the images...sorta-kinda. It's a very vibrant color for as neutral as it is.

What do you think about it?

But it's not white. LOL! It's a very pretty color though. It has some peach undertones.

I see a light peachy shade, or maybe a soft blush. It's a pretty color!

It’s officially the second half of A to Z. Time to catch that second wind, rest up on Sunday, then it’s that mad dash toward the finish line!

Love your theme that I have just found in visiting your blog during the #Challenge. I have a dear friend that is a color specialist and also has done the covers for both my novels. I stopped and sent her your link, which I know she will enjoy. You've done a really nice job. Congrats!
