True Colours Thursday - BLACK & WHITE!

So, this week we have BLACK & WHITE; a nice twist to Colours after SCARLET, as, I believe life is, mostly varying shades of GREY.
Few of us can truly define our lives in BLACK & WHITE.
The Pearly Kings & Queens of the east end of London being the exception...Dreamingspires 'still-life' mine artists come in Black & White too...And, I may not be able to match my good friend BJ's effort @ finding a house for every weeks True Colour.
But, for a second week running the Covered Market's Celebration Cake Shop has come up trumps...
As for the personal stuff, I think BLACK & WHITE looks very smart.
It's in both my Summer & Winter wardrobe...
My 'signature' perfume by the Canadian designer comes so packaged...
And, there's my bonechina Wire Fox Terrier mug; a cherished gift from the one & only and my very favourite WFT Jackson & his J1...

To participate in True Colours Thursday, all you need, is to post a photo/photographs & text, or better still both, on the specified colour of the week.
Then, LINK back to me & leave a 'Comment' here, to say you are playing along.
Everyone, who is or has previously participated recently, is named & linked in my side bar.
AND, I do try to up-date the list throughout the day.
Next weeks colour is LIME, as in bright new green!
If, anyone has a suggestion for a 'Colour', please do feel free to say.

Hi! The pearly king and queen look great. As for the cake, I wouldn't know whether to eat it or pop it my head!!It would look good at Ascot!

Second try. The first disappeared!

A great collection of Black and White.

My offering concerns Silhouettes.

See ya!

Oh, Blue, I love those cakes! Very nice B & W's. Mine's up--I intended to let you know last night, but I went out with a friend just after I posted, and then I went to bed early, but I did get it posted on Thursday :)

Hi Blue,

Mummy just loves your mugs, where'd you get them?

Sorry we lost track of the week and totally forgot when it was Thursday, DUH.
We will remember tomorrow though.
