Whether we accept it or not, the way we dress communicates something about us. Colours affect movement of our lives although most of the time colour choices are done unconsciously. We all have a favourite colour and often wear clothes of that colour. However, these colours are linked to our personality type, our strengths and weaknesses, as well as indicating our potential in life.
Here, we informed you on the significance of colours in fabrics and the clothes which we wear and you can learn what your favourite colour actually tells about your personality.
Often, in some cultures, we have certain beliefs on colour superstition. People believe that certain colours bring bad luck while some colours bring good luck. Many people also believe that there are appropriate colours for particular occasions. For example, the Chinese consider it bad luck to wear black on the first day of the Lunar Year as black symbolises death and should never be worn on such occasion.
Colours in your clothes
If you wear red
Red increases energy and is known to be the power color. You are very much impulsive, excitable and energetic. You are highly ambitious and want things to happen quickly when you want them to do so. You want to be the best in everything you do. You may be a little insensitive to the feelings of the other people, since you like to be the centre of attraction.
Learn to be a good listener. Red means vital force, with your nervous activity urging you to achieve results and be successful. If you make a habit of wearing red it may indicate you place importance on sexual desire and eroticism. This energy can be best used in the form of creative endeavor, leadership development and expansion.
You are courageous and extroverted, but tend to become irritable and ill tempered if you do not get your own way. Learn to be patient. Maroon and brick reds show you are fun loving, but be careful not to become resentful and feel victimised by the others.
If you wear pink
Pink is the sign of sensitivity and love. You have an affectionate, loving nature, which makes you sympathetic and understanding. You may lack willpower and show weakness when you are unable to control affairs of the heart.
You need a great deal of support from others and can sometimes behave like a child. You should learn to accept and love yourself. If you become more self-reliant you will attract and give out the feelings of warmth and love you desire.
If you wear orange, peach or apricot
Orange is the significance of stimulation. You are competent, self-oriented and impatient. You are also independent, an organizer and self-motivated. Orange is the colour of practicality and creativity. Your energy levels are high, and you are sometimes restless. You have a forceful will and tend to be active and competitive. You are also excitable and can seek domination over the others.
Bright orange and burnt orange can make you feel frustrated and blocked. Try wearing peach, which will direct your energy to the others in a more caring way.
If you wear yellow
Yellow is the significance of energy. You have an interesting and stimulating personality. You like to be active and involved in whatever is going on. Lively and vital, you can cope well with life’s challenges.
Bright yellow represents spontaneity and communication. You are active, inspiring and like to investigate. There is a desire and hope of greater happiness, which implies some minor conflict in which release is needed.
