COLOUR PSYCHOLOGY

February 12, 2014


. SPRING PINKS .

Today’s post isn’t a full outfit post, but more a post about a colour. The colour pink in fact. You may have noticed that I’ve been sporting a lot of pink lately, whether that be bright pinks (for example my Reiss coat featured above), rouge pink lips & even pastel pinks in my new skirts. It’s a colour I don’t deliberately seek out, but one that I end up wearing a lot of the time almost by coincidence. It’s one of those colours i’m instantly drawn to & feel confident and happy wearing. Clearly many a theorist has written about the psychological impacts of colour, and I have to say, I generally agree. Whilst black and white is chic as hell (cue my attempt at an all black look in yesterdays post – Black on Black) there’s nothing like a bit of colour to boost your mood & bring a little smile to your face. For that reason i’m taking today to appreciate pink & am getting excited about all the colours i’m going to be featuring in my wardrobe this Spring (I have a feeling duck egg blue could be appearing a lot).
What’s your favourite colour to wear? Do you prefer monochrome looks or are you like me and are drawn to colourful garments.

      I am addicted to matching my lipstick colour to my outfit. Even when I try not to, I just have to in the end haha!
