At first I used to wear black shirts and pants when I was in my high school. It was kinda cool for me that time but as went to college I find it awkward to wear that color since I feel like grieving. That was the time I felt that blask is not reall nice to wear especially when I need to look at some neat and refreshing color to ease up my stress around. I considered black as heavy to look at. So now, I had changed my color preference and I have switched to more light and cool colors. What’s your side on this?

Hello! My favorite color is blue so my closet is a bit biased towards the color. Over the past 10 years or so, I've built up a good wardrobe. Guess what? Most of them are dark (gray, green, black, blue). So far, my preference has not yet switched.
I don't really relate it with grieving. I also have a lot of whites though and that's because dark shirts are much hotter when you're under the sun.
Of course, I also have a lot of dark clothes because I look thinner in them. ;-)

i think that not all of people can wear black colour shirts and express perfect myself,if my skin looks black ,i could not wear this colour shirt,otherwise i looks more black.so i think that you could select neat and single color to wear and easy to express youngth and lovely character.

that's also what my friend used to say since she had dark complexion. she can wear black as an accessory to shirts and jeans and bags.

Yes! I love black shirts and I have at least a whole closet full of them. I don't know why, but I just love black. Black goes with just about everything. Even most of my shoes and boots are black. I love green, red, blue, and purple as well, but black just seems to dominate at times.

I like black colour the most as prefered on clothes especially shirts. Guys look coll wearing black t shirts. A person looks very handsome with this colour.
My grand mother says this very hilarious thing which I dont believe, she says that a guy in our area were n't permitted to wear black shirts becoz, they looked so cute that girls were mad in love with them.
So, black shirts were banned on guys in that era. ..sounds funny...but this is what she said.

With how it feels, maybe it is commonly associated with grieving but, in most cases, black color absorbs more heat which makes it sometimes inconvenient to wear. I still do like to wear black clothes every now and then. I'm even missing a few that I have and still looking for them.
My sister tells me to wear lighter colors. I have nothing against that. It just seems that most of my clothes color are a bit dark. Color happens to affect the perception of others which does make their impression different with the real personality a person has.. or does it..? (^_^")

I love to wear light colored clothing but seems every time I do, I have an accident and stain them, you know....you wear white and end up with spaghetti sauce on it or wear white or light colored pants and end up sitting in something that looks like you can't hold yourself....lately I've just worn dark colors so that if I spill something the stains don't show up.

hi flagella^^;;
yeah i agree, i used to favor black over other colors until when i was in college because it looked so hip at that time...though i wore other vague colors like cream/beige, white, gray but still prefer black among all since dirt also get unnoticable on it. however as i grow older, i try to use other colors which makes our face more vibrant and our mood more refreshing and yeah i agree that black now is dull when used purely... though i still can't wear too bright colors like of those neon

Yes I do. I like wearing black t-shirts with the logos of the bands I listen to.
It's common that a metal listener like me wears metal t-shirts(generally black) and jeans. That's what I wear almost everyday.

I also used to wear black before. That was even my favorite color before though technically, it is not a color. My preferences have changed when I grew older since I realized that wearing shirts with brighter color looks better on me than the black ones.

usually people prefer to wear what he or she likes. but the prefer colour is black. according to me black colour reflects a personality. rich people usually buy cars in black color because it reflects their richness. it's not important for me that the colour of shirt is black but what the matter is whether it suits you.

I have clothes of almost every colour and I wear then considering the season, my mood, where I am going and so on and so forth. But I like the black ones best. However, I never wear only black, there are some tricks to make it look not so heavy and dark :)

I live in a tropical country so its commonly hot everyday. Dark color absorbs sunlight specially black so I dont use Black shirts eventhough black can make a person look slimmer when wearing the color.

I have black shirts. I just wear whatever it is in my wardrobe as long as it is comfortable. I don't really worry if it gives out a gloomy impression, because people don't care about that much, either. :D I just find myself wearing a lot of neutral colors such as white, gray, and black. I also don a lot of brown shirts.

depends on the whether, if on that day the sun is up, i prefer not to wear black because of black shirt take more heat from the sun.
but dress in all black really give you a grieving look. so maybe you should try to dress not all black. black pants with red or white color shirt will be nice.
if you want to wear black dress, maybe you should combine it with brown color pants. or stripe pants.
