BLACK

Black

Black is associated with power, elegance, formality, death, evil, and mystery.

Black is a mysterious color associated with fear and the unknown (black holes). It usually has a negative connotation (blacklist, black humor, 'black death').
Black denotes strength and authority; it is considered to be a very formal, elegant, and prestigious color (black tie, black Mercedes). Black is the symbol of grief.

Black gives the feeling of perspective and depth, but a black background diminishes readability. A black suit or dress can make you look thinner.

When designing for a gallery of art or photography, you can use a black or gray background to make the other colors stand out. Black contrasts well with bright colors. Combined with red or orange – other very powerful colors – black gives a very aggressive color scheme.

Know your colours well!

COLOURS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS
YELLOW

Yellow is the color of sunshine. It's associated with joy, happiness, intellect, and energy.

Yellow produces a warming effect, arouses cheerfulness, stimulates mental activity, and generates muscle energy.

Yellow is often associated with food.
Bright, pure yellow is an attention getter, which is the reason taxicabs are painted this color. When overused, yellow may have a disturbing effect; it is known that babies cry more in yellow rooms.
Yellow is seen before other colors when placed against black; this combination is often used to issue a warning.Also, yellow indicates honor and loyalty.

Use yellow to evoke pleasant, cheerful feelings. You can choose yellow to promote children's products and items related to leisure. Yellow is very effective for attracting attention, so use it to highlight the most important elements of your design.
Men usually perceive yellow as a very lighthearted, 'childish' color.

Yellow is an unstable and spontaneous color, so avoid using yellow if you want to suggest stability and safety. Light yellow tends to disappear into white, so it usually needs a dark color to highlight it. Shades of yellow are visually unappealing because they loose cheerfulness and become dingy.

Dull (dingy) yellow represents caution, decay, sickness, and jealousy. 

Light yellow is associated with intellect, freshness, and joy.

An Art Cracking Style Cracker event!

100 Brands to spoil yourself
100 Stalls to shop into
Hours of indulgence and
Tonnes of Smiles
Made a perfect recipe for a Stupendous Saturday!

The Borough not just being a Fashion event or a Shoppers Spree,  was also an eye catcher for an Artist like me. Attractive colours,  classic designs, Deceptive paper sculpting, beautifully carved accessories, suave designer shoes, customizations and everything that tempted one to give into. From the celebrated crowd to the fresh fashion designs, from the origami gift-givings to the semi-precious stoned accessories, from the clutches and fringe bags to the food n drink stalls, from the relaxing services by Jean-Claude Biguine to the Ballroom ambience of the Palladium Hotel, from the Style Cracking Event to the Art Cracking experience,  it was all in all A Day Well Spent, A Day Worth Spending!

What was most attractive was the state-of-art designing flown onto every product available. Clearly, Fine arts and finer arts were woven into each other!

Thank you Style Cracker for a day so enchanting and looking forward to many more to come.
