The Psychology of Blue
Blue is the color of the sky and the ocean, two parts of our world that are constant. For this reason, wearing blue communicates loyalty and stability. It can help us and those around us to feel calm.

When we get dressed each morning, we're telling ourselves who we aim to be and how we hope to feel, with color as a vital component.
