It is just superstition and really not worth believing in. Sadly, millions of people even in our days are slaves of superstition. And lots of people are making big money of others' insecurities, fears or naivety.</p> <p>Wear colours that look good on you and make you feel happy, no matter which year or month. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-wear-for-chinese-new-year-1#post-2096296 Fri, 31 Jan 2020 17:58:49 +0000 ropeball 2096296@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You can also opt for accessories in those colors instead. A little more discreet or loud however you want it to be. &nbsp;I used to carry a red packet with money inside, in my purse pocket. It’s more on how to incorporate those color in life in general than just clothing.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-wear-for-chinese-new-year-1#post-2096064 Thu, 30 Jan 2020 18:00:42 +0000 catseye 2096064@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I am sure.&nbsp; But you don't want to find out by testing it, do you? So I always got red things for my birth years to wear at least during the Chinese New Year period. :)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-wear-for-chinese-new-year-1#post-2096046 Thu, 30 Jan 2020 16:39:38 +0000 Sisi 2096046@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How interesting! Does it work? if it works I am ready to wear red head-to-toe even if it does not flatter me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-wear-for-chinese-new-year-1#post-2096044 Thu, 30 Jan 2020 16:35:35 +0000 catseye 2096044@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am Chinese and I have never heard of this.&nbsp;</p> <p>The only tradition I am aware of is to wear red (underwear, socks, belts etc) during your birth year to fend off bad luck. For example, anyone who was born in the year of rat (2008 for example) need to wear a lot of red this year because it is the year of rat again. My son is a rat so I bought him red underwear to wear under his school uniform.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-wear-for-chinese-new-year-1#post-2096007 Thu, 30 Jan 2020 14:11:19 +0000 Lesley 2096007@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very tempting to get dragon underwear! I think I am even golden dragon, although I don't remember exactly what this means. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-wear-for-chinese-new-year-1#post-2096005 Thu, 30 Jan 2020 14:10:53 +0000 April 2096005@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe the black-and-white thing is one of those historic traditions that only the extremely elderly know anymore.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-wear-for-chinese-new-year-1#post-2095988 Thu, 30 Jan 2020 13:18:31 +0000 rachylou 2095988@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well that’s kinda fascinating. Hmm. Maybe I should try and do pink and blue then (rooster). I don’t know that anyone ever told me no black and white. The big dinner my mum puts on has been bumped all the way to next Sunday because of the Super Bowl.
