What Colors to Wear – Bright Colors
By mati. Filed in Fashion, What are My Best Colors to Wear |Tags: Change, rebel, What are my best colors to wear
This post is for the ladies in the bright color category, mainly ladies with dark hair and pale skin, or with medium blonde/brown hair and tan skin. (If you don’t know what category you belong to, CLICK HERE if you want to learn more about my new system for determining what colors to wear.)
The bright category goes from 12-18. If you belong to this category, and you are a working girl, you are in a strange dilemma. Even though bright colors look the best on you, you may be forced to wear muted neutrals and earth tones at work! Why do you think that is? I’ll tell you what I think – I think that conservative companies are afraid to have “wild women” running around, so they have to make sure you dress a little more subdued, a little more conservative! (More suppression of women, even today! They should be ashamed!)
What does conservative actually mean? It means that the old ways should be conserved. It means that they are not open to change. Women may finally be working side by side with men, but they are still working on their terms, so they still have to dress a certain way to fit in!
And, what exactly does your choice of clothing colors have to do with how competent you are and how you do your job? Absolutely nothing, actually. It is just another way to keep women in line so they don’t become a distraction to the other workers.
About 40-50 years ago, working women were stern looking spinster types who had dedicated themselves to being career women. They basically had to make a choice between being efficient working women and having a family life, so they weren’t focused on being attractive to anyone. But, it is different now.
Rebel, I say, it is time for things to change! There is no longer any need to make a choice between being gorgeous and being competent. Now you can be both, and if you are good enough at what you do, there is no way you’ll lose your job for wearing a red turtle neck instead of a camel suit. Dare to be vibrant! Dig out those bright colors that are hiding in the back of your closet, and let your true self shine through!
