Brighten the day up with something white.

At several times in our lives we reach a stage when we are fully content with our range of carefully chosen clothes in the wardrobe. In there are sneakers, brogues, loafers and shoes for every possible occasions – and suspended above them are shirts in our favourite colours, dark jeans, light jeans and even track suit bottoms for casual stay-at-home-Sundays. All of which fit us to perfection but leave hollowness echoing in the bedroom created by the lack of materialistic cravings. We simply have all the clothes we want and need – nothing more and nothing less.
Nevertheless, in the closet, to the far left, is a vacant wooden hanger dangling, waiting to be stroked by the shoulders of an exquisite jacket or sweater. Exotic and unusual items are often imposed on us when we allow ourselves to become victims of impulsive shopping on days when we go to do an innocent browse of our favourite shops. Merciless to consumers voluntarily check- in to department stores for retail therapy, luxury brands do an impeccable job displaying products that will instantaneously infatuate us.

Lustrous products of that nature are extra-terrestrial goods we never thought we need but at first sight is we must have in order to live on. Currently the colour white is in fashion, especially in the industry of automobiles. Even the cheapest car with names such as candy white and white pearl metallic which makes us all mellow enough to let our guard down and get submissioned into signing the dotted line. Gucci is supporting the trendy colour with a wide range of white items in their men’s spring summer 2010 collection. White powerful and draws you in. In winter it is mesmerizing if you are lucky to live in a region where sub-zero temperatures freeze rain drops into crystals that join in harmony to create a blanket of snow to admire and smile about. Brave astronauts, young brides, Pope Benedict XVI and caring nurses wear the holy colour in well-noted executions. If worn right, white can be as fresh and uplifting like turning to a clean page in a notepad.
