Although Red is not my Favorite, Favorite color... I do like red a lot. It is one of my favorite colors to wear. I feel that I looks good on me and I receive a lot of compliments when wearing red.

Colors can evoke emotion and memories. When I think of red and clothing, I think of a red shirt of my dad's that I adopted as my own in high school. It was a button down camp style shirt. I would wear it tied at the waist. I recall wearing it to a high school dance at the end of the school year. I even remember the shorts I wore. I had made them and they were Bermuda style with a Hawaiian print on them.

Red is a powerful color to me. It demands action... demands to be noticed. Those that have a red personality are motivate by this power. (Dr. Hartman Color Code Personality) As far as personality goes, I am not a red. I am a strong yellow, which has a core motive of enjoying the moment.

Red makes up my Favorite, Favorite color, which is orange. My favorite color has changed a number of times over the years. Orange was my favorite color as a little girl (about 5 yrs old). For the past 2 years it has been my favorite color again. I love the warmth it gives and I love the possible color combinations when you combine orange with red, or blue or even purple. I love orange.
I would say that my preference in colors goes as follows: Orange, Yellow, Red. As far as favorite colors to wear: Blue, Green, Red, Brown, and Black... in no particular order.
