Black is a very misunderstood color.  For most people it represents death, fear, anger or sadness.  But in other cultures, black is considered good because it is the color of soil, which gives life.  We often associate black with formal attire, therefore giving a feeling of wealth and anonymity. Remaining a very mysterious color, the true feelings associated with black are somewhat unknown.

Known as one of the most popular colors, green is a symbol of nature, wealth and generosity.  Hospitals can often paint their walls a soothing green color, or it is worn by doctors, because it has been known to relax patients.  It is also  known to be the easiest color on the eye and can help vision. However, seamstresses often refuse to use green thread on the eve of a fashion show for fear it will bring bad luck.

There’s a reason brides wear white: It represents purity, cleanliness and perfect balance.  A very popular color to wear, white can be matched up with pretty much anything and is very neutral. We associate the color white with feeling of goodness.

Blue is a very powerful color in that it can lower your pulse rate, lower your body temperature and decrease your appetite.  It represents tranquility, unity and trust.  It is recommended to wear blue to job interviews because it symbolizes loyalty.
