Brighter directions
You said the first round felt bland, so D, E and F push the saturation a long way up. Same sections, same photos, same type — colour is still the only variable.
The three quieter options from round one are kept below so you can see the gap, with today’s palette at the bottom.
Poolside
Pool turquoise and a hot coral. The brightest of the set and the most instantly Californian — this is the one that looks alive in a phone feed. Coral is used only on buttons, which is what stops bright from becoming loud.

Book Rosie to SpeakCitrus Grove
Palm green with tangerine, plus a lemon tint for card bands. Warmer and sunnier than Poolside, with more of an orchard feeling than a swimming pool one. The lemon band is what keeps it from reading corporate.

Book Rosie to SpeakSunset Boulevard
The hottest option: a bright sunset red on the big bands with bright teal as the accent. Highest contrast, highest energy, and the one that will date fastest if the trend turns. Strong on a phone.

From the first round. Teal-navy and apricot — cooler and more editorial, but on the evidence of your reaction, probably still too quiet.

Book Rosie to SpeakHow to judge these
Scroll on a phone. Bright colour behaves very differently on a small screen — usually better.
Watch where your eye lands. If it finds the button without hunting, the palette is working.
Ask which one Rosie would wear. It is her face on every page; the palette should look like it belongs to her, not to a wellness template.
Nothing here is live. Pick one, or mix — D’s coral on E’s green, for instance — and I will apply it site-wide from one set of variables.
