Diamond

Diamond can divide light into a spectrum of colors and reflect this light as colorful flashes called fire. Just as when looking through colored glass, color in a diamond will act as a filter, and will diminish the spectrum of color emitted. The less color in a diamond, the more colorful the fire, and the better the color grade.The color in diamonds graded K-Z detracts from the beauty of a diamond. It's especially noticeable set in platinum or white gold.Blue Nile also carries fancy-yellow colored diamonds, these diamonds are graded on a different color scale than white diamonds.

Color Match

Some people love the effect of walking into a friend’s home and being surrounded by dramatic paint schemes, but when it comes to painting their own home they just don’t dare use anything but white. So how does one gain color confidence? One good way is to take a little time and develop your eye for color, just like a fine artist or a professional decorator would.As your collection grows, find out what colors you really respond to and feel good about, and collect them in more detail. Soon, you’ll find yourself starting to become very aware of subtle differences. Spend a quiet evening putting together combinations that you’d like to try out. Show them to others, and get their opinions.

Orange

Orange is vibrant. It's a combination of red and yellow so it shares some common attributes with those colors. It denotes energy, warmth, and the sun. But orange has a bit less intensity or aggression than red, calmed by the cheerfulness of yellow.As a warm color orange is a stimulant — stimulating the emotions and even the appetite. Orange can be found in nature in the changing leaves of fall, the setting sun, and the skin and meat of citrus fruit.It represents the changing seasons so in that sense it is a color on the edge, the color of change between the heat of summer and the cool of winter.

Aquamarine

Aquamarine is another of the gems composed of Beryl. It occurs in colors of light sky blue, greenish blue, or greenish yellow. The light sky-blue stone is the one of the most value, and is very brilliant, especially by artificial light. The color of the aquamarine may be altered by various artificial means, and experiments along this line have been undertaken for many years by some of the German universities, resulting in the discovery of a method by which in rare cases the less valuable greenish-blue variety may be changed to a shade of light sky blue of great value without altering the stone to any perceptible degree.

Men's Color

Men favor the color black only slightly more than women.A strong preference for conservative colors such as blue and black may also reflect social and cultural norms where women wear the brighter, more varied colors while men's attire is traditionally less colorful. Purple stands out as a feminine color because it is chosen almost exclusively by women as a favorite color and is strongly disliked by men. Men are less likely to respond favorably to other feminine favorites such as lavender and turquoise. Most people still think of pink as a feminine, delicate color, the color for little girls. Even though it is acceptable as a clothing color for men, the color pink has such strong negative associations for men that some uses of the color may be considered insulting to men.

Pink

Pink is a softer, less violent red. Pink is the sweet side of red. It's cotton candy and bubble gum and babies, especially little girls.

It represents sugar and spice and everything nice. Pink for men goes in and out of style. Most people still think of pink as a feminine, delicate color.It is romantic and charming.
