The Colour Mustard

Any of you who grew up in the 90’s know just what I’m taking about.
I quickly decided it was an awful colour and simply could not understand why anyone could like it, let alone choose to wear it.

Later as a new parent, I decided I may not like it because it resembles too much of what happened in bubs nappy!

Fast forward to the year 2018 and bamb, Iv had a brain change. Must be a photography thing. I saw the colour and fell in love! Yes I said it! I love the colour MUSTARD.

Did you know it’s actually called Ochre, which is a natural earth clay pigment.  So much prettier than mustard. I had an idea of what I wanted to achieve with the colour and sought out to find the perfect outfit for a photo session.

Every time I pointed it out to my kids, I got the crinkled, turned up nose. Mum, it belongs on food!!

Well I found the Ochre dress I dreamed of and created a few images mixing it with white and denim blue… I can officially say, it’s possible for your brain to deceive you. I now love Ochre!

What are your thoughts on the colour mustard? are you an 80’s fan?
