What does the color say? by Admin

We all know that every color has a particular psychological meaning, but we do not think about that when creating our look. Usually, we just wear something we like or feel comfortable in not thinking about the fact that the color spectrum of the outfit we’ve chosen might give a wrong message about us or even TALK inappropriate.

CM decided to give you several tips about when and where better to wear the most popular colors.

Black

What does the color say?

Classic black has so many faces and meanings. Usually people find it as a depressing color. We could definitely say NO to that. Black at the same time represent power and elegance, discipline and mystery.

When thinking what to wear to a job interview, black might me a good choice.

White

What does the color say?

This simple color represents so many things: Purity, cleanliness, safety, strength, peace. But try to combine it with another color in your outfit. Too much white can project coldness and isolation.

BTW, white is also a great option for a job interview. People more likely to trust those, who wear white.

Red

What does the color say?

We all know that if you want to attract attention, wear red. It represents passion, power, energy. Wear red when you want to be assertive, need an energy boost or exude sexuality.

Blue

What does the color say?

This color can represent so many things depending on the shade.

Generally, blue represents authority, structure, communication, dependability, trust and loyalty.

However, some shades can project coldness. Wear blue whenever you are going to communicate with new people and they will definitely treat you with lots of respect.

Pink

What does the color say?

The color of love. Represent affection and serenity. But be accurate with this color. People are likely not to take seriously those who wear lots of pink.

Green

What does the color say?

Green represents security, abundance, growth and luck. But be very accurate with shades of Green. CM would advise you to wear dark green or grass green.

Wear green whenever you feel calm.

Yellow

What does the color say?

The color of sun. It represents happiness, freedom, optimism. Yellow is a great choice if you don’t want to become depressed during a rainy day.

CM advises you to use the colors to make a great impression and desired effect.

XOXO
