Fifty Shades of Beauty

"Love of beauty is taste. The creation of beauty is art"
 Rudolph Waldo Emerson

Some would be loath to agree with the above saying, so I'd allow them sit on their side of the fence. but if you are on my side...hold on! I've got no side. hehehe
What is beauty?, how should it be described, to what unit can it be quantified?. Raising such question is akin to emptying an ocean, what with the many school of thoughts, religious views and alas! our own opinion.  There are two sides to a coin, so it would suffice to say at this juncture that there are varying shades of /to beauty. But you know me, ever ready to deal. So here is my version.




  • Beauty is Grey
The color grey was inspired by the character Christain grey the weirdo yet he was loved and yep, the hero. Kinda reminds me of the saying "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder". This shade  it stripped  of any color spectrum and is synonymous to romantic books and  movies. All I will say about this shade is "I hope the beholdee is worth being beholden


  • Beauty is Red 

Whenever my friends (guys) say to me "mehn..I met this beautiful girl" and I go "okay, what did you see to make you think that". Let it be known that men have the crassest criteria when it comes to women. heehaw..sue me!!! I think they see red like a bull charging its prey.


  • Beauty is mishmash/rainbow

To them that love art, you can create your own beauty. there ain't nothing wrong with it. Just don't go looking like your doctor told you "the test results shows you got herpes". take the time to make it flawless. or do you aspire to be a clown?


  • Beauty is Pink
Since every little girl loves pink, I'd say this color was chosen for this set due to the fact that they take the time to look pretty. they pride themselves on their crafted and sculpted looks."A witty woman is a treasure, A witty beauty is power". As a side note, Beauty is vain and only skin deep



  • Beauty is white
We also have them that think beauty comes from within, like the color white which stands for purity. Don't shoot the messenger but I think this type can be drab sometimes.but then again, beauty and folly are old companion.right?


I hate to write long posts. Simple, short, witty is my mantra, I'd ask Victor Hugo to end this post with his own words
"How beauty varies in nature and art.In a woman, the flesh must be like marble, In a statue, the marble must be like flesh."
