Oh, That's How You Feel?

First impressions are very important. You don't want to give away too much, but at the same time you don't want to be too secretive. Therefore, you have to know the appropriate attire to wear in any given situation, and more importantly, you have to wear the right color. Color is powerful. It speaks volumes about who you are and how you feel. If you want to seem in charge and confident then wear red or an all white outfit (if you can pull it off). To come off fun and exciting wear something bright like yellow or even a bright purple. When you're trying to blend in or play it safe and not really call attention to yourself, then by all means go for black. Every time you walk out the door you should have a theme. How is your mood that day? How do you want people to see you? Those are all questions that determine your theme of the day and what you should wear. It keeps fashion interesting, and it forces you to communicate with other people.

Good communication can take you a long way in your business and personal life. Using color to help you is a small, yet powerful way to do that without requiring too much effort. Moreover, whatever hue you are wearing has to be appropriate for the venue you're going to regardless of how you feel. For example, If you follow our president you will see that he follows these rules. You will never see him in a navy power suit with a red tie when talking to the middle class about creating more jobs. He's most likely wearing a dress shirt with his sleeves rolled up and a soft colored tie. Without even opening his mouth he is saying I understand what you're going through, and I care about changing it. The people see that and they open up to what he has to say. If that doesn't do it for you, here's another example. Wearing red to someone else's wedding. It's a no no, and you just don't do it. Red is too powerful and it takes the attention off of the bride. You don't want to look like an attention whore on somebody's special day. That is not acceptable.

In the end, fashion is what you make it. It can hurt you or help you. Being mindful of color can be a tremendous help to you and your future, whether it's your personal life or your career. Don't be afraid to explore, just make sure that you are sending out the correct message that you want other people to interpret.
