“Hmmm…what should I wear today?” That’s the question I used to ask myself almost every day before I got dressed. I used to try on lots of different outfits. But, somehow I always ended up wearing my favorites – those items that I wear all the time. But now, I wake up, walk to the closet, and ask myself “What is my mood today?” So far, it has been a success!

I learned this approach from James Stockton, the author of “Designer’s Guide to Color” who wrote:

“The many psychological aspects of color often seem more emotional and personal than scientific…”

If you would like to give my new approach a try, select what to wear by picking colors that reflect your feelings. If you’re in a high spirit and enjoying everything around you, try yellow. Go for white or blue if you’re feeling calm and relaxed. If you’re in a romantic mood, try red. Go for pink if you’re feeling the warmth and affection from people around you. Pick green if you’re feeling fresh and hopeful. If new opportunities and new people in your life make you feel excited, put on something orange. Feeling mysterious? Dress in black. Want to feel sophisticated and feminine? A purple outfit is what you need.

So what’s your mood today?….;)
