What colour is my jacket?

We got a carpet for a granddaughter's bedroom. It is light turquoise but unfortunately at most times of the day it just looks grey.

I bought purple yarn, lovely in daylight but brown in artificial light.

It depends which colours are absorbed and which are reflected in different lighting conditions.

moonstone I am having the same experience with a paint colour. Itis a just off white colour and in some rooms it looks as if it is verging towards a pinkish magnolia, whicle in other rooms it is clearly a yellow white.

On the paint chart it has the pink tinge.

My DH has a fleece that looks brown, but next day (in a different light) it definitely looks green!! It'ver warm and he doesn't care what colour he wears it with!

Perhaps it's the dye combination in the cloth. I have quite a bright blue linen dress which I wash by hand, The first time I washed it the dye that ran out was a deep khaki green colour ?.

I’ve got that slightly wonky. Some saw the dress as one colour others saw it another colour.

I don’t know why it happens Moonstone. We had a car like that. It was silver but in certain lights it looked gold ?The official colour of it was titanium.

And there was the case of a dress a few years back that people saw as a two different colours.
