Do the colors you wear influence how you show up in your career?
As my career has evolved, I’ve started paying more attention to how color affects confidence and presence. Exploring color analysis helped me understand which tones highlight my personality and align with where I am professionally. It’s interesting how something as simple as color can make such a difference in how we feel — and how others see us.

Absolutely, it's true that the colors you wear can have a real impact on how you show up in your career.
Color is more than just fashion; it’s a form of nonverbal communication that influences both how you feel and how others perceive you. For instance, colors like blue and navy often project trust, calmness, and intelligence, perfect for leadership or client, facing roles. Black communicates authority and sophistication, while white shows clarity and simplicity. On the other hand, brighter colors like red or yellow can project energy, creativity, and confidence, great for presentations, interviews, or creative fields.
When you become aware of what colors enhance your natural tone and personality, you start dressing with intention. That awareness boosts confidence, helps you feel more authentic, and aligns your external presence with your professional identity.
So yes, colors absolutely influence how we, show up. The right colors don’t just make you look good, they help you feel empowered, focused, and ready to take charge of your goals.

Julia, I totally agree. I think fashion in general is a great way to show your authentic self to your colleagues, clients, and other professionals.
Adding your own personal touch makes you stand out, people will remember you, especially if you have great work ethics to back it up. Authenticity builds confidence, character, and trust with others because you have less walls up!
Keep using color to help you in your journey - it's a wonderful way to lift your spirits and others!
