What Your Clothes Reveal About Your Personality & Mood

We all love dressing up and wearing nice clothes that make us look appealing and attractive. However, have we thought why we choose to wear the particular kind of clothes? Why we like certain clothes and why we don’t even consider some others?

There have been many studies on this, and it has been confirmed that this attribute has to do with your psychology. You choose the kind of clothes based not only on your personality but your inner person. A lot can be deduced about your characteristics only by looking at the type of clothes you wear. Not to forget that the clothes you wear also have an effect on your mood and personality traits.

We did our research and found out the various kinds of choices people make while wearing clothes and how it affects them. Take a look to know more about yourself:

Bright Outfits

Moving away from the classic and more preferred colors of gray, white and black, especially in men, and wearing bright colors like orange and yellow means that you are a trendsetter and a change-maker. You are someone who is friendly, and people find you very approachable. You seem more helpful, especially to the opposite gender and are someone who can form quick bonds with people. Everything put, in short, people tend you like you quickly. Wearing bright shades also points towards your vibrant and dynamic personality. You’re motivated and in general, an individual who is happy in life.

Abstract Prints

If you wear clothes that have prints that not many people understand, then that just means that you’re a very bold person. You are extremely outspoken and spontaneous, and people have a hard time in manipulating you. You do not wish to be spoon-fed, and you’re someone who prefers being alone most of the times. However, just like your prints that are unique and classy- so are you. You score high marks on the creative side, and you are generally behind the creation of most of the new ideas due to your individuality.

Crew Necks

We all know of the charm that a simple crew neck t-shirt has on men. It is perhaps the simplest piece of garment you can wear that still makes you look attractive. Moreover, if you’re someone who prefers wearing crew necks, then you’re someone who is very logical in your approach towards the situations of life. Due to this logical side of yours, you’re extremely practical and generally, think of everything a thousand times before coming to any conclusion. You have a no-nonsense approach towards your professional life, and that makes you a highly respected figure among your colleagues.

V-Necks

The exact opposite of Crew necks both literally and figuratively is V-necks. And, as the style of these garments is different, so are the people who prefer either of them. Individuals who go for a V-neckline are considered to be the happy-go-lucky kind. You have got a chilled out approach towards things. You also appear to be someone who is very lazy in life. However, the brightest side to your personality is the fact that you’re natural go-getters and you never succumb to the pressures of the world. Your passion makes you stand apart from your peers.

The Classics

Black, gray, blue, white are all classic colors, and people who prefer wearing these colors symbolize age-old traditions. They're kind of old-school and like doing things the vintage way. They’re extremely culture loving people and are more urbane and groomed. They are well-organized in every aspect of your life, and they ooze sophistication in the way they handle things.

Reds

If you’re someone who prefers wearing reds, then that means that you have an athletic side to your personality. You love sports and work out a lot to remain fit and healthy. Studies have revealed that athletes who wore red tended to outperform their counterparts who wore blue during training and performing. People in red could lift heavier weights and in general deliver a better overall performance despite the same level of exertion.

Original vs. Counterfeit

Apart from colors and prints, the brands of your clothing also have a profound impact on your mood and personality. Wearing knock-offs have a sneaky side to your personality. Research at the Harvard University revealed that people were distributed sunglasses and clothing of original and knock-off brands. However, those people wearing knock-offs were more likely to cheat during games and were also more suspicious of other players. There are high chances that a person might feel like a fake while wearing fake clothes and accessories. It also makes you assume that other people around you also might be fake.
