Lavender haze colour palette: soft purple hex codes for your planner

Violet, lavender, lilac and a pale mist. Four purples, from deep to barely there, like a field at the end of the day.

One colour, fading out

This is a single-colour palette: each purple is a lighter step of the one before. The deepest goes on Work, where you’ll see it most, and the colours get lighter as the week gets easier. It’s a calm way to see where your time goes.

Your week in lavender haze

The week at the top of this post is a real week in Anser, in the Summer Picnic style with the Bold look for categories, so every event shows its full colour. To get the same look, open Settings › Appearance › Colours › How categories look and choose Bold. The palette works in every style.

A week that winds down well

  • Dim the lights at nine.
  • Ten slow breaths before the first meeting.
  • A bath, or a long shower. On the calendar.
  • Clean sheets on Sunday.
