Australian colour consultant（顾问）Kylie Bartnicki is talking with a group of women in Pudong, Shanghai, who are interested in how colours affect people's confidence and help form（形成）people's first impressions（印象）．
Kylie tr
aces（追溯）back her interest in colours to when she went for her
first job interview at age 18. "My mother bought me a new red top to wear
to my interview and she said, "Wear this, and it will be lucky."'
Kylie recalls. "I wore it, had a great interview and got the job. Ever
since then I started thinking about how powerful the colour is, how it makes us
look and how it makes us feel."
"When we wear clothes in a
good colour, the colour will make our skin, hair and eyes shine a
nd
we look happy and smart," Kylie says.
Winter and summer are "cool colourings" and autumn and spring are "warm colourings". Someone who loves "cool colouring" might have red or golden hair, brown eyes and gold or yellow skin.
Chinese women belong to the "autumn season" if they have darker, peachy skin. Chinese women belong to the "winter season" if they have pale skin. Kylie says that Chinese women who have dark eyes and dark hair will look best in deep, rich colours. Light pinks and blues should be avoided because they may wash our Chinese skin tones（肤色）．
Their talk usually lasts one and a half to two hours and costs 600 yuan (89 dollars). Kylie says her customers(客户) are as young as five years old and as old as 90. The customers between their 30s and 50s always want some fresh ideas on developing their own personal style.

think that there are also two groups of people: people who prefer warm colors and people who prefer cool
colors.
The warm colors are red, orange, and yellow. Where there are warm colors and a lot of light, people
usually want to be active. People think that red, for example, is exciting. Sociable (善交际的) people, those
who like to be with others, like red. The cool colors are green, blue, and violet. These colors, unlike warm
colors, are relaxing. Where there are cool colors, people are usually quiet. People who like to spend time
alone often prefer blue.
Red may be exciting, but one scientist says that time seems to pass more slowly in a room with warm
colors than in a room with cool colors. He suggests that a warm color, such as red or orange, is a good
color for a living room or restaurant. People who are relaxing or eating do not want time to pass quickly.
Cool colors are better for offices or factories if the people who are working there want time to pass
quickly.
Scientists do not know why people think some colors are warm and other colors are cool. However,
almost everyone agrees that red, orange, and yellow are warm and that green, blue, and violet are cool.
Perhaps warm colors remind people of warm days and the cool colors remind them of cool days. Because
in the north the sun is low during winter, the sunlight appears quite blue. Because the sun is higher during
summer, the hot summer sunlight appears yellow.
