There's only a month left to celebrate the New Year! This means that you need to think about your look now: with the right outfit, you can not only become the star of the evening, but also attract good luck. How exactly? The magic of color will help.

Eastern philosophy says that the symbol of 2024, the Green Wooden Dragon, has favorite colors and those that irritate. So, if you want to appease the powerful patron saint of the year, we advise you to emphasize some colors and abandon others. Read more about them in the OBOZ.UA article.

What colors to celebrate the New Year 2024 in

You definitely won't go wrong if you choose a palette of green shades. It can be emerald, olive, khaki, chrome green, the color of a sea wave, and so on. They symbolize calmness and inner harmony. The green range will become your "magnet" for happy changes in your life.

Another noble color that Dragon likes is purple: from lavender, blackberry and lilac shades to rich plum and purple-violet. Such outfits are a great choice for self-confident people who live in harmony with themselves and the world around them.

Suits and dresses in bold red are the perfect solution for those who want to express their leadership potential. According to Eastern philosophy, this color attracts happiness, good luck, and strength. Choose a rich palette for your looks: fiery or carmine red, pearly ruby, tomato red, etc.

Black is one of the favorite colors of the Dragon. It is associated with severity, strength, prestige, and elegance. We advise you to bet on outfits made of silk or velvet - things made of these materials in a deep shade look incredibly attractive and "expensive".

There is a color that seems to be appropriate for celebrating any New Year (not just 2024). All animal symbols like it. We are talking about gold. So, add it to your festive outfit. For example, wear a shiny suit or throw a golden straight-cut jacket over your favorite dress. A simpler option is to style your look with gold jewelry.

What colors should not be worn to celebrate the Year of the Green Wooden Dragon

You will be surprised to know that it is not advisable to wear white to celebrate the New Year 2024. In China, unlike other countries, it is considered a mourning period. Since the Year of the Dragon is associated with the Eastern calendar, don't upset it with snow-white, beige, milky, or ivory outfits.

The Dragon is also not fond of yellow color. Previously, only members of the imperial family could wear clothes in this palette in China. Those who violated the rule were executed. Of course, this is now a thing of the past. However, the symbol of 2024 respects traditions, so on New Year's Eve you shouldn't make it look bad with yellow outfits.

In nature, a wide variety of brown shades are often found: fallen leaves, tree bark, bamboo, cinnamon, etc. But for some reason, they are not the favorite of the Green Wooden Dragon. This powerful creature considers brown shades too trivial. So, you have to appease the symbol with other, more interesting palettes.
