Color Fashion

Color the gives life to an object, whether is is living or non-living, life with color just seems to be better. We all know that each color holds different meanings. More commonly we associate color with mood, emotions, and attraction. Most of the time we think that we are so familiar with colors thus we give less of an importance to it. Yet, as our world ages, and more and more discoveries have been made we uncover more meanings to the common word color.

Kim Tran, a writer of the DC Women's Style Examiner, wrote an article on the psychology of colors in fashion. She stated that there are some factors in the choice of clothing color that can influence the people around us. One common example is how politicians blue or red ties for debates, or how product marketing agents use red or orange packaging. These trends not only apply products on the market or political endearment. The color we choose to wear can in fact do so much more.
