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?

Today's color is: Ivory

Anyone else singing "Ebony and Ivory" in their heads? Ivory is a beautiful color. It may also be known as Winter White for those who still adhere to the No White After Labor Day thing. Many women walk around in it during the Winter months. If I recall, J-Lo's famous stolen suit in Maid in Manhattan was a Winter White suit...No, it was just white, but her sweater was ivory. Shades of white are very interesting.

Today's color is: Ecru

This is an interesting color, kind of tan, not quite sandy, but people probably call it that. The first time I heard it was in a Colgate commercial. The teacher's teeth were NOT ecru, but kids are...kids. lol It's a nice color in many different situations. A beach just after high tide, wallpaper, kind of the dark patch of camouflage in army uniforms for the desert.
