how to iterate dictionary combined with another list

MRE: 

d = {"a": 1, "b":2, "c":3}
colors = ["red", "green", "blue"]

iterate dictionary key-value pairs by using:

for key, value in d.items():
    print(key, value)
>>> a 1
>>> b 2
>>> c 3

However I want to combine it with colors list. This is what I desire:

for (key, value, color) in (d.items(), colors):
    print(key, value, color)
>>> a 1 red
>>> b 2 green
>>> c 3 blue

How can I achieve this?

right now I am changing key, value into lists and then iterate through 3 lists

You can use zip to iterate over more than one element at the same time like this:

d = {"a": 1, "b":2, "c":3}
colors = ["red", "green", "blue"]


for (key, value), color in zip(d.items(), colors):
    print(key, value, color)

>>> a 1 red
>>> b 2 green
>>> c 3 blue

You need to use zip, can you try the following:

for dd, cc in zip(d, colors):
    print(dd, d[dd], cc)
