5 Deadly Reason that Black is Killing You - Part 2

See how unflattering
 black can be? 

Deadly Reason #2: Black is killing your looks.  

The harsh reality is when you wear a black top you look severe and unfriendly compared to when you wear a color or even white. If you are female and over 40, this is doubly true. 

If you wear your dark hair long it will blend into your top, which makes you just one big black form from the waist up. If your skin is light, and you wear a black top it makes you look paler by comparison. Plus you run the risk of looking like a "talking head." If you have dark skin you can really end up looking like one, big, dark shape. 

Luckily there is an immediate and quick fix. Simply start wearing lighter or more colorful tops. Even a bright scarf, necklace or necktie will help. You will instantly look younger and friendlier. After you give up the ominous black look, you will become more approachable. You may even feel lighter! 

Color counts. Stay tuned for more on the color black.
