Blue is the new white

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that I don't like the trend that started last year and shows no sign of abating this year. When the style police decided that multi-coloured lights were no longer de rigeur for years all we saw were twinkly little oh-so-minimalist and tasteful white lights. Now it's blue and for some reason I really don't like all-blue lights on trees or houses. I wouldn't mind so much if they were nice pale soothing light blue but it's all electric police-siren blue and it jars my eyes.

Christmas lights shouldn't be tasteful or fashionable. They should be defiantly multi-coloured!
