It’s that time of year again, the first day of school is drawing near and the age-old questions is arising. WHAT SHOULD I WEAR? I believe first impressions are very important. You know that saying “clothes make the man?”, well I think there’s some truth to what Mark Twain said. What we wear affects the way others perceive us, whether this is good or bad, that all depends on the person. Now I’m not going to make this post about spending money on fancy clothes, jeans vs. skirts or blazers vs. polo shirts, no. In this post we’re going talk about colors. Yep that’s right, the colors you wear not only affect your personal mood, but they also can affect the mood of the people you interact with. Can you believe it? You can strategically choose colors you wear so that they would affect those you interact without the in a positive way. (Or a negative way if that’s what you’re going for). So let’s talk about the top three colors!
I think the color yellow speaks for itself, its bright, warm, fun, and energetic. I just love the color yellow, it brings forth happiness, inspires creativity, and promotes friendliness.
I don’t really wear orange that’s much but I think a trip to the thrift store will fix that! Orange has similar traits to yellow, its cheerful, warm, and helps us to look on the bright side of things. Orange is helpful when it comes to being social, it gets us out of ourselves and encourages social communication. If you’re looking to feel confident, courageous, or optimistic then orange is a great color to wear.
Pink is another color I don’t wear too much. I’m one of those people who think pink is just too girly for me. But at the same time, I do think it is a nice color and there are various shades that I am fond of such as rose and salmon. Pink is a very happy and feminine color, its more soft and kind, brings about calming and nurturing feelings, and helps us to think positive thoughts.
So there you have it, the top 3 colors to wear on the first day of school! Now don’t go wearing all pink or all yellow, or you’ll look like the Pepto-Bismol bottle or Big Bird. If you want to wear these colors, its good to pair it with a more neutral color such a grey, white or tan. Cool colors such as blue work as well. Most importantly have fun picking out your outfit and don’t forget to accessorize! I hope everyone has a great first day of school!
