Outfit Not Found I chose light pink roses because they're tied for first, with white, for my favorite color rose. They symbolize crushes and happiness and I think the world needs a whole lot more of that. In school we use to have a rose stand the week of St. Valentine's Day and you could have a rose (or roses) delivered to classmates to show your affection or appreciation for them, so I love the idea of a rose day as well.



i chose pink for my own HA, cause it‘s sweet and calm. when i think of falling in love, not being in love, i think of pink roses and spring. that’s valentine‘s for me, too.
for my gift box i chose red roses, too. since it‘s stands for all the love everyone here deserves. red is passionate and it‘s intense and so is love. x
thanks for this cute challenge! i included the picture onto the gift mal, hope that was okay. ♥
"Cream roses symbolize charm and thoughtfulness. They're ideal for friends or family members going through tough times, letting them know you're thinking about them."

Blue rose: "A blue rose is a flower of the genus Rosa (family Rosaceae) that presents blue-to-violet pigmentation instead of the more common red, white, or yellow. Blue roses are often used to symbolize mystery or attaining the impossible. However, because of genetic limitations, they do not exist in nature. In 2004, researchers used genetic modification to create roses that contain the blue pigment delphinidin." [from Wikipedia]

going with light pink roses / and black
The pink rose is the oldest of rose colors. It has been depicted in art longer than any other color. The pink rose can mean a variety of things. As the language of flowers was complicated with the meaning of the flowers changing with the number of flowers, types of flowers and herbs it was with and many other factors. Even the absence of thorns and even the hue of the rose could prove significant in determining the message. Generally, the pink rose indicates love and gratitude. A light pink rose: Generally is an expression of sympathy or condolences. It can also mean admiration, poise, grace and joy.
as for the black rose - my personl meaning: Rebirth However, the black rose can also be a symbol of new beginnings, representing rebirth positively. Therefore, it can be used as a gift for someone starting a new chapter in their life or used in literature to foreshadow a change for a character.
As soon as I can upload pictures I will post the screens of my Roseday gifts and a rose...

"In Victorian tradition, the deeper the rose color, the deeper the passion—so a white rose was most appropriate for a young girl or woman who has not yet felt a deep and passionate love."
The HA above illustrates a modern young woman at a Victorian floriography themed garden party. She wears pink, blush, and white roses.
White: Innocence, purity, spirituality, new beginnings. Pink: Pink roses primarily mean admiration, elegance, innocence, and gratitude.
