Color Crush: Timeless Taupe

Many people have no idea what taupe is. Taupe is a dark grayish brown color by definition, but as with most colors there are various shades of taupe. My favorite is this light taupe. Some with a less discerning eye or less extensive vocabulary might call it “beige” or “nude” or “sand” but it is decidedly taupe. It’s a great neutral color for spring. Try it out.
