If you're searching for someone special or are hoping to take your relationship to the next level, you might want to rethink your outfit.
If your goal is to manifest love this year, you might want to start with your outfit — and no, that doesn’t mean you need a makeover or closet overhaul. Rather, by using color magic and wearing specific shades, you’ll be able to bring the exact energy you want into your life. It’s a trick we’ve tried on New Year’s Eve when dreaming up our goals for the year, and also the reason we’re big fans of Pantone’s Color of the year, Viva Magenta.
What to Wear for Date Night, According to a Celebrity Stylist
The first step is setting a romantic intention, then incorporating any of the seven colors below into your outfits, nail polish, or makeup looks, which will help you attract the love you want. Color magic is especially useful on Valentine’s Day, when you might be looking to couple up. And, if you already have a romantic interest? These colors will help you deepen the love and heighten the vibe of your relationship.
These are the best colors to wear when manifesting love.
Colorful Tights Are More Wearable Than You Think — and These Outfits Prove It
Red
Red is the color of desire. It also represents confidence and sexual energy. If you’re wanting to add lust or passion to your life, wear this color on your lips, nails, and body. One of the many good things about the color red is that it’s considered to be a powerful color — which means you should use it in manifesting and setting intentions in love because it’ll help bring your dreams to reality.
Pink
They say that the color pink embodies all that is positive in the world. And, in my experience it does. If you’re looking for the ideal color to wear on a first date or something fun to put on when flirting with your crush, this is it. Pink will accentuate the optimism and innate kindness that is felt when experiencing the beginning stages of a romance. However, it’s also perfect to wear out for date night with your boo when you’re hoping to reconnect.
Is Blue the New Pink?
Orange
Orange is a happy and inviting color. If you’re longing for a partnership that transcends time and guarantees security, wear an orange scarf or sweater on the next outing with your crush or significant other. Also, orange can incorporate playfulness and creativity into your relationship — which means the good times won’t stop when you wrap yourself up in this exhilarating color.
Blue
The universal meaning of the color blue is trust, which is something that's needed in order to create and maintain healthy relationships and boundaries. It also represents unconditional love, a sentiment we all want in our partnerships. Then, there's the fact that blue is associated with the throat chakra. It welcomes us to speak our truth when it comes to romantic matters, so long as it comes from the heart.
Purple
The regal color purple is considered to be lighthearted and romantic by nature. It encourages us to take risks when it comes to love (which explains why most knights in shining armor wear this color in cartoons and movies). Purple requires us to level up and go for what we want — even if there are a few obstacles in our way. Therefore, it’s an important color to incorporate into your wardrobe when it comes to manifesting love.
Green
As the original known color of Venus (the goddess of love herself wears the colors pink and green), this color brings positive vibes to love and relationships. Green helps us to see the world through rose-colored glasses (or should we say green-colored glasses) and to acknowledge the good in others. It’s a great color to wear when you’re looking to create an extremely chill and mutually nurturing vibe with your partner or crush.

Brown
Chocolate brown is a color that should be worn when you're hoping to bring love into your life. This earthy color represents dependability and honesty — two sentiments that are essential in any relationship. It denotes wholesome and meaningful emotions which are unlikely to fade. The color brown wants to build and connect, making it a color that should not be worn if you are faint at heart. It’s one for those who are seeking a life partner.
