50 Shades of Grey

This post is an oldy but a goody.  In honor of the movie release of 50 shades, this weekend,  I am reposting this from March of 2012.  It really stood up over the past few years.  A classic never goes out of style.  The color, not the book.

Gray is a complicated color, like the character in the books I, as well as MANY others cannot seem to put down, the trilogy ~ 50 Shades of Grey.  I am rooting for Grey, cheering him on, championing him.  I am consumed with all things Grey/Gray.....

It's strong and masculine, it's neutral and soft, it's dignified and timeless.  It plays well with other colors and makes a statement standing alone.  It can be warm or cool.  I don't think we give Grey enough credit!

Don't you wonder about the spelling as well?  Is it Grey or Gray?  The English say Grey, while the Americans say Gray.  But I am told it is fine to use them interchangeably.  Grey aims to please; it can be anything you want it to be ~ it just wants to make you happy.  Gotta love that in a man,  I mean color.

So many were raving, I had to see what the commotion was all about; to distract me from my blogs and magazine addiction is a tall order.  Written like pulp fiction, violent and erotic, you are on this roller coaster ride, and you don't want it to end.  Trust me, you are riveted .   

Laters, baby

Now I have to see the movie and decide for myself if all the buzz was worth it.  How about you?
