Wearing new clothes for CNY signifies a fresh start and new hopes for the coming year. It is common knowledge to wear red as it is an auspicious colour but Fengshui masters will tell you that, in fact, each zodiac sign has their own lucky colours for the lunar year. 

We spoke to Fengshui master Mr Hillary Phang from Yuan Zhong Siu to find out what are the lucky colours you should be wearing for CNY to makeup sure that you have all the luck and be successful in the year ahead.

 

Rat

Born in: 1936、1948、1960、1972、1984、1996、2008

Individuals born in the year of the Rat are self-discipline, hardworking and quick-witted. Going into 2018, thanks to auspicious star, you will be blessed with help from benefactors. You will see double returns for the efforts put in work, but pay close attention to loss of wealth. Elderly in the family should look out for health-related problems. Reconsider your decisions instead of jumping headfirst into projects. 

Lucky Colours: Silver, Blue, Light Yellow, Pink

Try matching pink with red even if the fashion rules say no. Red accessories like shades or shoes can make a pink skirt interesting.

The efforts you put in at work will not go unnoticed. Be humble and you will receive assistance through difficult times. 

Lucky Colours: Coffee, White, Blue, Black

Coffee colour is a safe option when it comes to fashion. It is almost a conservative shade so remember to jazz up the outfit by accessorizing.

Snake

Born in: 1941、1953、1965、1977、1989、2001、2013

Lucky Colours: Silver, Purple, Coffee, Beige

Variations of Ultra Violet are expected to be as big as the actual shade itself so do invest in a lavendar piece.

Born in: 1946、1958、1970、1982、1994、2006、2018

Persons born in the year of the Dog are determined, loyal and reliable.
