色彩取向學專家聲稱，我們的服飾向別人傳達了一些表明我們心情、性格和意愿的信息。在這些專家看來，粉紅色意味著穿衣者平靜而滿足，經常穿粉紅色衣服的人被認為是熱心且善解人意的，它傳遞的信息是你愿意和別人分享你的平靜和快樂；而紅色衣服則象征著強健的體能，穿紅色衣服的人喜歡快節奏的生活；黃色最能吸引別人的注意力；棕色是象征財富的顏色，它傳遞了需求獨立和物質安全的信息；穿綠色衣服的人熱愛自然，喜歡安寧，他們常常喜歡獨處幽思，而綠色也有著輕松舒緩的視覺效果；偏愛藍色的人往往尋求永久的護佑或穩定的工作。Focus1SectionIAredgarmentindicatesahighlevelofphysicalenergy.ENJOYINGCAMBRIDGE(III)clarify:vt./vi.tomakeclearand(more)comprehensible闡明，澄清e.g.(1)Hestoodupandclarifiedhisposition.他站起來闡明了自己的立場。
