I practice wearapy: it is a psychology between colour and texture. Take your emotions – what is it that you want to accomplish for the rest of the day? Pick that feeling and channel it into a colour.
People always say you can’t do a red lip if you have red hair but I’ve never shied away from it. I think you can absolutely do that. It’s more about hair colour and complexion.
When I grew up, my race was not a thing. My identity was in my class. It was not about colour on my estate.
I’ve always loved interiors and the way a home can positively affect your life. Since I was very young, I’ve rearranged rooms, changed colour and pattern, and loved renovating and decorating my own homes as an adult.

My eyes are green, and in one of them there is a splash of brown – apparently it is not a colour, but a freckle! Sometimes I notice that one eyelid droops more than the other.

Once people start to realise that colour is just that, it’s just a colour, then things got a bit smoother.
My trouser needs are simple: a narrow leg in a dark colour, with jean detailing.
We always had power shortages in the country. I was living right next to the border with China, and it was the only country I could compare to my own. When I looked across the river, it was a completely different world – there were no people dying. It looked like a place full of colour, and that’s what confused me.
The EP is called ‘Kiddo’ because this has been an uphill battle for me. As a female in the industry, as a female of colour, some people will demean me. So it’s like, ‘OK, you wanna call me kiddo? I’ll show you kiddo.’
Your 30s is the time to embrace bold, zingy colour patterns and to follow trends while taking time to get used to what really suits you.
The fight still isn’t people of colour versus white. It’s the people versus the system built to keep us down. That’s the first line of the Constitution. And the system is manmade but is made of no man. Everyone, regardless of class, creed, culture and ethnicity can fight the system and help to break it down.
Grey is my hair colour. I really can’t see why I should change it.
I get a good colour in summer but go really pale in winter, and it genuinely doesn’t suit me, as people ask me if I’m ill. As well as making me look a bit better, I often have to be tanned in the middle of winter to do a show or programme, so I’ve road-tested every fake tan on the market.
I think in the end football wins hopefully, and people start looking at all scenarios. In the end I just want to be a manager. Forget whatever colour you are – that’s the way it should be really.

I think a person of colour in any situation should be qualified to do the job. Not just because of the colour of their skin.

I’m determined to not let my skin colour or the fact that I come from Africa be a hindrance.
Everything always looked better in black and white. Everything always looked as if it were the first time; there’s always more people in a black and white photograph. It just makes it seem that there were more people at a gig, more people at a football match, than with colour photography. Everything looks more exciting.
I know there are girls of colour out there who have felt the same as me.
When I do my own makeup, I limit my options: I have one Mac eye colour, a neutral shade with a bit of shimmer, plus eyeliner and subtle mascara. I wear a little foundation and put Laura Mercier concealer around my nose, underneath my eyes and on any dark spots.
Those fans who abuse people of a different colour or gays just do not think at all.
Clairvoyants can see flashes of colour, constantly changing, in the aura that surrounds every person: each thought, each feeling, thus translating itself in the astral world, visible to the astral sight.
I’m not a painter by any stretch of the imagination; I’m a dyed-in-the-wool traditional illustrator, and I begin with black and white. If I need colour, I add it over the top. There’s a calligraphic element to it… it’s about the texture of lines on the page.
I didn’t want to be a 16-year-old kid being beaten up by a bunch of people who didn’t like me ’cause of the colour of my skin.
I am able to hang with the hardest, the baddest, the worst, and I’m able to hang with the most proper and be at ease. I’m able to hang with any skin colour, any belief. I just fit in everywhere.

Ill-fitted T-shirts stretched over a gut are my pet hate. And if the colour’s faded – ugh.
I have a chameleon quality and I’m able to transform completely to different looks from different decades, depending on the hair colour or make-up change.

Imagine a world alive with incomprehensible objects, and shimmering with an endless variety of movement and innumerable gradations of colour. Imagine a world before the ‘beginning was the word.’
I put some red stuff on my mouth and cheeks so I look healthy – any old red lip pencil and a lip colour from Dr. Hauschka in a crushed berry tone. I never put anything on my eyes, or I look like Joan Crawford.
It doesn’t matter how long my hair is or what colour my skin is or whether I’m a woman or a man.
Manouri is a Greek ewes’ milk cheese that’s light in colour and texture. It’s fresh and milky, and goes well with other subtle flavours.
I think that everybody in the world, whatever colour or creed, has a jerk like JR in his or her family somewhere. Whether it is a father, uncle, cousin or brother, everybody can identify with JR and that certainly had something to do with the success of ‘Dallas.’
Obviously I would never have agreed to be a part of something that would change the colour of my skin had I been playing a human. The bottom line is, I’m playing a cat. There is no more discussion. I am a cat that’s white, let’s not read into it.
Jake Green isn’t just Jake Green. Jake represents all of us. The colour green is the central column of the spectrum and the name Jake has all sorts of numerical values. All things come back to him within the film’s world of cons and games.
You’ve always got to have the right blend of colour. You’d be silly to match a yellow t-shirt with a light green pair of trousers, you know? You can wear different colours at the same time, and as long as they blend with each other then it works. That’s what I like.
I tend to wear monochromatic outfits – all one colour from head to toe. I did that when I was younger and still do that to this day.
You can’t have F1 without Ferrari – you just can’t have it. It’s part of the theme that is the red car, and a lot of it is to do with the colour.
Every form is a base for colour, every colour is the attribute of a form.
Football makes nonsense of class. It may make nonsense of colour in some circumstances.
I feel music-making is more like a psychological game; each film has its own colour that needs to be identified and addressed.
Art is colourblind – the only colour thats meant to be in art is on the canvas.
I don’t appreciate people who discriminate on the basis of colour.
People in love don’t see gender, colour or religion. Or age. It’s about the other person, the one that you love and who loves you. You don’t think of them in terms of a label. You just go with your heart.
I sometimes think that what I do as a writer is make a kind of colouring book, where all the lines are there, and then you put in the colour.
