Moreover when it is sprayed edges, embossed and debossed in pink.

In terms of its use as a choice of color for a book cover, I always feel giddy and excited when the dust jacket or hardcover comes in pink. It is modern, playful yet exudes a strong character of innocence and like for instance, in Judaism and Islam, it’s the color worn on religious festivals as a symbol of purity. While we are on it, let’s not forget how Millennial pink once conquered the world of fashion and design, equating pink for both men and women and breaking the culture tied to it that pink is for girls and blue is for boys-bringing gender together on all catwalks of life. (Segue, here in the Philippines, we celebrate National Women’s Month with this year’s theme: “We Make Change Work For Women”. It is also a symbol for health which is easily associated with National Breast Cancer Awareness Month and evokes femininity that it became one of the significant colors every International Women’s Day. No wonder why people will say or use the expression “tickled pink” whenever someone is happy and content. It is sweet, charming and euphoric-a befitting way to describe the feeling of happiness this color could ever give to anyone. So it is impossibly hard for me not to associate pink with sugar and spice. So, today we will talk a lot about pink!īut how does pink makes someone feel even when simply having thoughts about it?

This was what inspired me to come up with Pantone Book Cover Edition, a new series of post here on Tale Out Loud where I will be featuring books according to the color of their cover and is a little different from all other lists of books sorted by color you have already encountered. It felt like I had a color overload along the process of eliminating which is and which isn’t suited for my mood board. Imagine to my surprise, Pinterest shows me these oceans of color palette with pink Pantone names I never heard before? It was really hard to choose. Recently, I was making a mood board for my best friend’s wedding and to find a specific color that complements their color motif, blush pink, was unexpectedly overwhelming.
