What is the different between teal and turquoise colour ?
Teal is a medium-saturated, blue-green colour, similar to medium green and dark cyan.
It can be created by mixing blue with green into a white base, or deepened as needed with a little bit of black or grey colour.
Turquoise is the name of a greenish blue colour, based on the gem of the same name. The word turquoise comes from the French for Turkish, as the gem was originally imported from Turkey. The first recorded use of turquoise as a colour name in English was in 1573.
Definitely teal is much darker version of bright turquoise but they both mixed blue and green but in different saturation.
Both colours are used regular in the fashion industry .
Also mixing of blue and green is a very popular too.
Today I will show what I have mixed and how this look
My beloved Isabel Marant fringe poncho on white bohemian cotton simply top from Birger et Mikkelsen with Juicy Couture blue jeans with beads and Miu Miu turquoise geometric sunglasses.
Also Australia Luxe cosy and comfy boots which could easy be swop by Miu Miu flower high boots but my comfort won this time.
To show properly the teal accent in the fashion I have decided to wear peplum LK Bennett Jetta crepe jacket worn by Kate Middleton Duchess of Cambridge. Perfectly selected piece of clothing for her royal duties special as this colour match nicely her brown hair and the belt show her slim waist and skinny figure. Very chic, classy and elegant with matching skirt.
Femininity and unexpected detailing is key with the Jetta jacket, part of the Jetta suiting system. Beautifully tailored with a belted nipped waist, this peplum crepe jacket features delicate kick-pleat detailing. Long sleeved, it looks lovely paired with the Jetta skirt for a chic office option, or paired with jeans for a sophisticated causal look.
My personally designed and created art fashion gallery includes the lovely jacket which could be worn in different ways. Winter way is with LK Bennett leather pants and vintage jacquard unbranded scarf in teal and purple shades finished with fringe and matching fur hunting inspired hat or velvet purple old fashioned one with ribbon and bow on. I could not forget about Miu Miu geometric sunglasses and Miu Miu hand crafted boots. I have found also unique costume plastic flower necklace from Marni in similar shades. All accompaniment nicely and sophisticated.
To show the proper aristocracy inspiration and look We went to the Holland Park to see the murals.
Garden Party in the Grounds of Holland Park, 1870 by Mao Wenbiao
Date painted: 1994–1995
Oil on canvas, 290 x 190 cm (estimated)
Collection: Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, Holland Park
These murals show an imaginary scene from one of the garden parties which used to be held by the Earl of Ilchester in the grounds of Holland House in the 1870s. The costumes were carefully researched and the artist has included portraits of many of the Friends of Holland Park (who commissioned the murals) and their friends, so that each face is of a different and real person.
The intricate design of the garden is echoed by the equally intricate costumes of the ladies parading around it. The post-crinoline fashions of the 1870s reached a kind of zenith of the elegant and the impractical which fits very well with a formal garden on a sunny day.
To feel comfortable I swop the boots and worn mine old riding black boots from Russell and Bromley.
Would you like to sit with me on my bench ?
