magazine subscription

When I read the latest issue of ELLE,

I surprisely found that there was a passage about colors used in F/W collection -- and it is undoubtly the BLACK color.



Although it reveals the truth that the majority brands will use black for the every F/W collection, I realise that black can be interpreted into different level of black, like pure black, black and etc. Also together with different texture, silhouette, a simple design can also be a fantastic one.



As black color is the mixture of all colors, it is very easy to match with the other color to make the extra color to become more outstanding.



In fact, it is not very ugly to dress in black as human skin is in skin color which in fact give a good contrast to the dull black color. But for me, I don't know why I like to dress in white more than in black...haha, maybe i like some light color than strong color.

about a film and some other pics.

yesterday i watched <畫皮>

It's really depressing to see the main male character love his wife so much but still trust cannot establised well between them.
Maybe it is really because the world outside can never be explored throughly by us and we don't know the reality most of the time.
Anyway, this is a good film i think:}

originally i think it would be a scary movie,
but the outcome is that it is a love story
some extra photos i like :


big contrast of color: white with dark brown or greeny grey


the sky is so great and the color is very special


i like this lines from an umbrella the color and the shape together with the blue sky background gives a simple but pretty feeling to me


farm in line shape. in the green background, tiny little people figure become outstanding
