Britney Spears and the color psychology of purple

Colors have strange affects on the human psyche and we readily make associations based on colour. One of my favourite colours is purple: it’s fun and happy but not girlish like pink.

For some reason that I can’t explain, purple is also associated with royalty.

Interestingly, purple is very rarely found in nature and that explains its attraction to those who crave the exotic – as perfectly depicted in the these pictures:

Exotic yes, but hardly royal: Britney Spears dons a purple bikini!
