Hello Winter: Why do we use green and red for this time of the year? Mythology and traditions that are older than we think + All my Yule/Christmas looks + sneak peek of forthcoming seasonal special
So you understand now when I say it is not only about christmas. By the way I have totally misplaced my red hat lol but when I find it i may make felt pins with white circles to make it look like Amanita 🍄
Haha you should totally make that xmas song now lol. Oh Santa, Father Frost, Nicholas... Dunno been a good girl but Santa is a troll. Yes I knew about the red and white Santa ad, nut those colours were already popular in representations of other Father Christmas figures. Red initially was abem a representation of the feminine power (red fruits) lol 😂 and green masculine because of the "Holly King" BUT all four colors red, green, white and gold were and will be leaving linked to winter symbols then and now.
Orange hair is a wig. My hair is blonde lol 🤣 I fancy a change but I am allergic so only hair chalks that wash off me i am oooold, today is my bday, so it should be white now, but its a crazy mix of gold and whites now. Patiently waiting for my moon hair forever

I'm guessing the movie is Scrooged. My favorite of your looks is the one of you in the green stocking cap, because you look like a little Christmas elf.
I love that movie and in fact I rewatched it last Christmas. But in this case it is another adaptation of Christmas Carol that was me in the 80s as well. Another revealing clue would be that not all actors are humans. Okay I think that makes it a very obvious solution. My birthday is at 16th and I hope to have it ready by then. I Simmer things so slowly
Yes indeed it is a reference to a Christmas Carol. It is from one film adaptation that was made in the 80s and some of the actors are not humans. That is the biggest clue. I hope to have it ready in a few days. I already recorded Greensleeves not long ago if you scroll back on my blog you will find it so I'm pretty sure I have your lovely feedback then. The other one I think is Carol of the Bells which by the way was not originally a Christmas song either but an Ukrainian traditional song cold the bountiful evening. I made an instrumental fashion a while back I hope you like it
This one I like too, but Silver Bells is a different song. Have a thing for bells at Christmas. I listened to the Carol one on the playlist you posted. I don't think Greensleeves was on it...
My favourite is the second image but I'll admit to being a bit of a sucker for cloaks. I also quite like the playful nature of the short sleeved red and green outfit in the forest.
I kind of knew about the history behind the colours but it was interesting to read it again and be reminded of stuff I'd forgotten and learn some new stuff :)
The colours I associate with this time of year is generally blue, it's summer and we go swimming a lot XD
Yes I guess it all makes more sense in the northern hemisphere but I miss swimming and blue sea and skies. Every season is magical for different reasons but they wanted to make a post to highlights the whether you hold any believe or not, at the closing of the year nature itself provides a reason to be joyful, light Hope and New beginnings. And yes I love clothes too, that is likely my favorite as well
And a lovely post. Thank you so much for making the effort to write such high quality stuff.
Btw - inspired by one of your previous posts I have now had chestnuts this year!
They were lovely.. though I didn't know* I was meant to pierce them before putting them in the oven so I made quite an exciting explosion! It was loud and messy but no damage or harm done and now I know!!!
A lot of hope and light for 2022 then!
I find the one with the red pointy hat the most adorable

My favourite song during Christmas is called "Silence, the kids are sleeping", and no, don't look for it online, I just made it up hahaha!
Please Priscilla don't put me on the naughty list, I need my presents!! 😄
Did you know about the red color for santa being linked to Coca cola ads?
The orange hair look great!

It is The Muppets Christmas Carol, by Henson company (how surprising lol)
,
Reference to Dickens: A Christmas Carol. Liked this year's best followed by 1st photo at top of post. 3rd goes to last photo.
My favorite song is What Child is This/Greensleves or Silver Bells.

Greensleeves is not on the Xmas list because I played the origina l non Xmas version. Theseare theorifinal lyrics on the song
I will check silver bells them 💗🔔🔔🔔
