When I return home, I feel the mental and physical need to immerse myself into my garden...just sitting on the grass and looking at the trees can be enough.

When I lived in Paris, I noticed that (after years there) all my clothes and everything else I was attracted to and bought was GREEN! Every place has a different colour of light and the light in Paris is grey/yellow. (In the So. of France, it's really soft; blue/pink). I now live in America, in the Northwest (Seattle region) and the colour of light here is blue/green. I still buy green everything but now, instead of all tones of green, I only collect Olive. I need the Yellow as there's not much sun here. Colours are fascinating!!!

I feel the opposite, I moved to the suburbs and can't wait to move back in the city. Countryside makes me so depressed.

When people ask me what is my favorite color, I always cringe b/c the real answer is so complicated! I'm always tempted to say "are you asking about my favorite color to wear? to decorate with? to photograph? on other people? overall?" because the answer is so different in each context. There are colors that I love but simply cannot wear b/c they make me look older or just plain ill. For example, a rich beautiful purple/indigo. So I always answer with "blue" but I mostly wear whites, grays, and blacks. For me, I wear whatever color I need my mentality to be in for that day (as opposed to letting my mood dictate my choices). I also apply this backwards psychology to the texture of fabrics as well. Do I need to be focused, productive and efficient? Or am I allowed to be relaxed, soft and playful?

I wear colors based on how they look on me. I look best in soft pinks, peach, and cream shades. I can't pull of stark white, or bright jewel tones. My favorite color is purple, but it's just not flattering on my skin tone, so I try to do purple accessories or small pops of color.

I love the colour blue. Specifically the shade Royal Blue. It's just like the name says- "royal", elegant and gives you the feeling of when you walk with confidence with your head held high but having a nice smile on face. It's looks confident but not too powerful/overpowering like red. It's such a gorgeous colour.

Orange. It makes me feel positive and gives me energy when I’m feeling down. It also suits my coloring (Autumn). My favorite neutral is grey which harmonises beautifully with orange. Least favorite colors are blue and beige. Blue is a nice color but doesn’t suit me & makes me feel depressed. Beige is boring.

So much depends on whether the yellow resembles that of lemon skin, lemon pulp, peeled banana or peeled mango, and whether we're talking about clothing or home decor. And is it offset by white, red/orange or black? I once read that yellow is the hardest color for the human eye to process, also the best color to grab attention for an ad or a street sign. My favorite kitchen wall color was mango yellow, but a top in the same color made me look and feel awful, while one in a slightly cooler shade - I call it summer yellow - made me feel so good that whether it flattered my skin tone didn't matter because it made me so happy I smiled all the time, which is definitely a better look. A step cooler and it would have been lemon yellow, which looks great on lemons, but anywhere else looks so acidic to me I can sense my mouth puckering most unattractively.

I love wearing blue and black outfits

Green is my absolute favourite colour, I love nature and just find it so calming...plus i have green eyes! I just love all colours though, especially jewel tones I love mixing lots of colours and patterns to just create a really rich bohemian kind of look, or I like to do neutrals and one really strong statement colour or piece. I adore prints! I just think they make everything so intricate and beautiful

My favorite colour, hands down is pale aqua! I love it on my walls, in my clothes, jewelry, art, you get the idea. Thank you for this lesson!!

Love blue, white, black and red! I can say that in my culture (Russian) there are certain combinations of colors that have their connotations. F.ex. white top+black bottom reads super formal and rather boring because that is the colors everybody had to wear for formal occasions at school. It is also what receptionists or bank tellers typically wear. I often avoid this combination, if I don't want to be mistaken for somebody's intern or secretary. Khaki color has very strong associations with the military (unlike sandy or black, like in some other cultures), so can look a bit too aggressive for some occasions. Red has all the connotations you named. But scarlet is also the color of the Communist movement, and the revolution, so items like red shirts and blouses, red badges, or, especially, little red scarves (like what Pioneers wore), remind people of Communism, revolution, etc. Red+black are very closely tied with rebellion, provocation, etc. Black is also the color favored by many subcultures which are still alive. So a total black look might look a bit too "gothic" for some, or just too provocative and depressing at the same time (this is why many intellectuals and artists like this look). I'd say, if you want to be perceived neutrally, wear grey, cream, green, and blue colors. Finally, lots of gold (especially thick gold jewelry) is seen as a sign of not just bad taste but also dark past. Gangsters in the 90s loved wearing thick gold chains and rings (and putting heavy jewelry on their girlfriends). A typical gangster look would be dark shirt with thick gold jewelry. That's probably why Russian men won't wear dark or brightly colored shirts.

Mainly in very tight fitting T-shirts, often with V-necks, to show off a gym-toned torso. It's almost as if the mainstream macho borrowed from the gay fashion...

Judging by your youtube name you are some sort of garden designer? It's almost too obvious but I think it could be because you deeply enjoy being around nature and green things. I worked in gardens for a while and I have fallen in love with dark green clothes (never liked green before). I never really made the connection until I saw your comment. :)

I love office colours black ,white,beige,grey,blue(especially black) etc .I know it's boring but it's classy and doesn't attract a lot of attention and I'm fine with that😊❤

I love how detailed you are

can you also make a video on prints? do they also have a certain psychology behind them?

white and similarly muted colors in Hindu culture is traditionally worn by widows. Black is not worn on most festive occasions either. All other colors are good. Red, yellow are considered auspicious.

It is a bit old fashioned now, but In Ireland, traditionally you would never wear red or white to someone else's wedding as it would be said you are taking attention away from the bride. But if you want to wear either of these colours to a wedding nowadays, best check with the bride first.

I love color therapy so much that I painted my house according to function. E.g. I painted the laundry room orange so laundry would be fun, and guess what! It is! My bedroom is a pleasant light blue, the pantry is an appetizing red, most the house is a warm yellow...nine colors in all. We love it!

My home is very small (4 rooms). Hubby and I decided it was best to find a single colour for our walls, so we chose a very pale pink to help uplift our mood (we both suffer with depression). It works well for us but I remember visiting stately homes that would have colour themed rooms e.g. "the blue bedroom", and if I had a large home that's what I'd do.

No wonder why I used to wear (and still do) so much black, I felt emotionally safe in it! I was afraid to wear color because I wasn't confident in my emotions. I still love wearing black but I also started wearing color and I think it's because I learned emotional stability and to be able to recognize my feelings and be confident in them. My most favourite color is green, I love it. Can't help it 💚👒🧃

BLUE is also one of my favorite colors! I wear blue all the time

I've always been attracted to jewel tones, ruby, emerald, sapphire, amethyst, peridot. When I shop for clothes, these are the colors that speak to me, and same in decor. But I also love purple, turquoise and tiffany blue--both are very similar--and mint green. I like yellow a lot and have it in my decor, including tiffany blue, and raspberry. The only two colors I do not like at all are brown and orange, even though I've been told I look great when I wear it--did have a blouse in orange, many years ago. I wear some black but like white, I find them both so boring. I've been described by friends as serious, reserved and shy, at first, if I don't know the people well. But then, once I get to know the people around me well, I'm very outgoing, fun and even sassy.

Thanks Justine! Very insightful and interesting video. I was surprised at how accurate the descriptions of each of my favourite colours reflected my personality.

Amazing video!! I adore how you also added the cultural and religious aspects because those do play a part in how society and people view certain colors.

I love all your videos, your explanations are just perfect!

I have been studying colors for years and give intuitive color readings. This is the first video I've ever come across that explains colors in the way that I understand them. I don't know if you get to all the comments, but I enjoyed your video thoroughly. Thank you.

I was not expecting this video would make that much sense. Normally these things are as you mentioned very culturally based, but the example of red being the first to see because of the physics really explains why the color is seen as aggressive or sexual. My colours are pretty much a greyscale: black, white, and everything in between. I do like some navy or also brown, but when I wear a colour, I feel soooo strange!

In general I love the primary colours, always in a fresh tone. I love to sneak them in in the details.

It depends too on WHERE the color is. If it is up against your face, you don't want to wear something that makes you look ill, and the wrong "right" color can do just that. Yes, I do choose colors that make me feel better, and that will give a good impression for whatever I'm after, but it is not necessarily calculated, and it is never JUST about other people's perceptions. For example, other people have loved how I look in brown or tan, but I don't give them the opportunity to see me wearing it any more, because it makes me FEEL like a drab, homely non-entity. I leave browns to the people who glow in them because they love them! And I glow in my favorite teal or periwinkle blue! LOL

Yes the colours we thrive in change over time. I still wear brown but there was a time it didn't look good, my skin was more olive looking these days its more neutral so I can wear a cool brown no problems! I don't tend to wear a lot of pattern but this evening I'm wearing a light grey sweater with pink fluffy hearts on it. It's a great choice if I'm feeling a bit flat. Or if I'm feeling unwell which is today. It makes me feel cosy and cared for and it's only a sweater!

I am feeling rather green this evening 😊 Your videos are so educational. I love that you give us a scientific perspective of beauty. Keep up the great work!

I love every shade of blue, from dark blue , royal blue to baby blue, also love emerald green and dark reds. Thanks for the video, really interesting!

That's why I love Blue and Yellow combinations, happiness and serenity. But my #1 favorite is Blue and Grey, serenity and cleanliness

I am going to binge all your old videos now;P your videos are just so calming and give me the chance to relax=D I love it!

Merci pour vos vidéos. Elles sont intéressantes, claires et pleines de bonnes astuces présentées avec bienveillance. Je les apprécie énormément !

As I noted a few weeks back, I have rather difficult coloring- auburn hair, brown eyes, ivory skin with freckles. My very vest colors a a deep orange and moss green. I'm also good in tangerine and a bright lime. I can wear red well if it is a warm red. I don't do blue well, and grey is right out. I'm very aware of how I look in various colors, and the 'vibe' I carry in them. I think that as much as a formal color psychology, it is a matter of understanding yourself. If you are confident and radiate that, you could be wearing sackcloth and ashes and still look great! But I know that I dress to deliberately affect my mood. If I'm not feeling well, I won't wear black or a dark green. It'll be marigold yellow or orange or bright tomato red. And I live in Portland Oregon- we have long, drizzly winters. I tend to have Seasonal Affective Disorder- the weather depresses me in a clinical sense. so my bedroom and my office are decorated in warm colors, It helps- a lot. And the fabric stash in my studio is mostly reds and golds and oranges, so if I'm working on a blue project, I have to brave the fabric store or go online. And that is dangerous!

+Laura Minnick you have a very conscious way of wearing colors indeed! 😊

Omg..you are so spot on with the psyche behind colors .,, I love Purple and Orangey... I am perceived by too many as immature and childish and also shy and introverted.... but I love the positivity aspect in them too like quality, deeply spiritual, fun!!! I’m impressed

Very helpful. Thank you, Justine.

I am obsessed with these videos thank you so much for sharing 🙏❤️

Hi Justine, a few years ago I became aware that I am synesthetic - specifically, I have color-graphemic synesthesia, which means that I perceive colors when I think of letters, words, numbers, etc. I also perceive color with different tastes and sounds. Color always has and always will be such an important part of my life, and seems to code the way I think. Over time I think I have developed my own personal associations with certain colors, probably based on my own experiences. My favourite colors are very saturated blues, purples, and greens. I tend to dislike brighter colors, especially yellow and orange, and find them too aggressive and harsh. It's definitely interesting how color affects our perception, and should be studied more in psychology! Ps: If you are synesthetic in any way, shout out to me! Also, my As are cobalt blue, my B's are tomato red, my Cs are cyan blue, and my Ds are earth brown. What are yours?! Justine, if you're still there, your name is plum purple! Mine (Jessica), is eggplant purple!

Justine Leconte officiel I'm not sure! Could be because the first letter J is purple to me, and that affects the word. J = plum purple, U = burnt orange, S = dark blue, T = leaf green, I = dark yellow, N = dark pink, E = bright yellow. I know it makes no logical sense but it's just an automatic perception for me! :)

Jessica Viau - I also have synesthesia. Justine is bright yellow and Jessica is a greenier yellow. I also only discovered this in recent years and didn't understand that other people perceive the world differently. And one of my children has it, and the other does not. Plus, I love orange (and I do not own any blue, red or purple clothes). Yes, and sounds / smells are in colour and time is positional. Fascinating!

I'm also like you. From a very young age I noticed that when I look at numbers, though they all might be drawn in black, my mind registers them with different colors. For example, the numbers 1 and 9 are always black. two is always white, 3 is yellow, 4 and 8 are always red, 5 is blue, 6 is green and 7 is light purple.

Slightly Karl Lagerfeld-y. I honestly dont know how he did it, walking across our huge open campus where its constantly 30°C hahah

I love black. I like to dress with attitude, while remaining classy, sleek, and sharp. So you are right, it fits my style like a glove.

Thank you for another insightful video, Justine! My favourite colour depends on my mood and the season.

I usually wear a black t-shirt to work since it is activity based (and few things look less professional than big sweaty spots at the armpits) but I also act as a bit like a companion for the people I work with so to balance out the rather dark look I wear a felt sunflower in my hair to brighten it up. I think it makes me look more friendly and open (approachable?) which is important in my line of work as most people I work with are rather lonely.

This makes a lot of sense now...so amazing! LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!

I love your videos so much! They are always very helpful and informative. I really appreciate that you do not try to "put on a show" like some other people do. You are always calm and thoughtful, and you get right to the point. It makes your videos very simple and easy to listen to. :) Sometimes people who make youtube channels try to be too showy and they talk very loud and fast and just generally have way too much energy and those videos are stressful to watch because they are so wild. I like how yours is very calm and practical. My favorite color is red, although the older I get the more I am finding myself enjoying lots of other colors like orange, yellow and purple, which I never liked as a child.

Also no fake laughter or fake giggling is a big plus! Honestly it's not necessary to do that and the content here is so good that Justine doesn't need to rely on such devices to be successful. With children it's a different story you have to be actively positive and super engaging all the time.

What a wonderful and informative video! Very to the point and useful! Also, awesome comments :) I studied Chromatology in uni, and I work with colors every day, so it's almost become intuitive and semi-automatic (I'm in graphic design). Still, it brings such clarity of mind to think about colors intently. They say you can modify your entire state of mind by looking at a particular color for a while... Oh, I could talk/read about colors all day! ^_^

At the moment I am attracted to wearing black and red.... but black is quite a seasonal colour here in New Zealand (winter) but we also wear it to funerals... Red here also means passion and warmth here. Red and black are also our local sports teams colours in my city... so it's patriotic in a way

turquoise (blue + green) I love this color. It's like earth and water holding hands. Love it! Refreshing, calming, healing.
