COLOURS
My favourite colour is black because it makes me look thinner and I'm sure, girls that all of us have a "little black evening dress" for special occasions, you know what I mean. And you men how do you feel when you see us to wear a red dress? Ok, I know like the movie "Lady in red" maybe.

Every day we make choices about colours: which tie to wear, what colour to paint the kitchen, red roses or pink carnations for Mother's Day. It's not surprising then that your choice of colour can say something about your personality.
The power of colour is something that most people are unaware of - in fact, few are unaffected by it. It is quite important that we live with the colours that best suit our personalities so that we can enjoy a more contented and healthier life. Colours affect people in many ways, depending upon one's age, gender, ethnic background or local climate. Certain colours or groups of colours tend to evoke a similar reaction from most people - the overall difference being in the shade or tones used.
Warm colours include Reds, Oranges and Yellows and create a mood of excitement & warmth, stimulating activity and creativity. Cool colours have passive, calming qualities that aid concentration and can create a mood of peacefulness and tranquillity. Cool shades include Violets and Blues. Green can be either warm or cool. When it's influenced by yellow, it becomes warm and when it's influenced by blue, it becomes cool. Neutrals are great for adding stability and balance in a room. They include white, black, gray and colours that contain a significant amount of gray. When choosing colours, it is also important to consider the effect of the lightness and darkness, or value of colour. Lighter colours tend to be more active, and deeper colours tend to be passive.
