Wearing Black today? ... NOT!

I suppose you are confused. Yesterday I told you to buy a black dress. Every wardrobe needs one for each season. I have played with different color meanings and the results of wearing particular fashion colors.I want to share an experience about wearing Black. Black is sophisticated, sexy, and is a Power Color. The other side is Black clothing can also push people away. If you have a job interview, if you are at a party and want to meet a sensitive soul mate, if you are in a new situation; wearing Black cold have a negative effect It creates an impression that you are too good for the company, high maintenance, stronger than may be needed for a particular situation. Wearing Black clothing may tell people that you will not be easy to get to know. This would apply if you are trying to meet someone or if you want to get to know someone better. I know... Black is sexy and it makes you feel gorgeous and it will on the right occasions. I wore a Black suit to a business meeting in which I was a middle manager. The company was having problems and I knew they were going to look for someone to beat up on in this meeting. I even ensured my resistance to being their scapegoat by wearing a crisp white shirt, sheer dark stockings and expensive leather pumps. This meeting easy, great! I was completely safe. I looked as if I was in charge of my departments. The bosses picked on a man wearing a brown inexpensive suit with a cream colored shirt. I thought poor guy, he was not prepared for this rage from his bosses, but he had to take it! I said nothing, but was proud that my instinct told me to show strength and not let today be a day I would have my career on the edge. My wardrobe selection was advantageous, wearing black at this business meeting was positive. The power of colors is subtle and effective. It is important to consciously select clothing style and color for the right occasions. The Black dress can be positive to gain the attention and envy of others. They see you as a fashion forward sophisticated person that may have wealth, power. or at the very least power over the opposite sex. Once you gain that esteem, use it wisely in the right situations.
