Colours influence our everyday emotion and mood. You would know what colour can make you feel secure or make you feel blue. When you choose to use or avoid a colour, this little action can reveal a lot about your personality.
When I get ready in the morning, I might just reach my wardrobe half-asleep and pick whatever I can wear. Choosing a certain colour to wear is not really the first thing that comes to my mind. I pick for whatever’s close (or clean), and I am ready for the day. However, to be honest, sometimes having an interesting pop of colour is exciting. It is certainly more fascinating than just an outfit pulled together out of convenience.
The colours you choose to wear say something about you to the world, whether you like it or not. Are you introvert? Curious? Confident? What you wear is not an accidental necessity, nor a random circumstance. It is a form of expression that whether you intend to be. You wouldn’t deliberately put thought into sending a message about who you are, but clothes will tell you how you fit into the world.
