All powerful reds

　　It’s not a coincidence (巧合) that many politicians wear red­colored ties with light shirts and darker suits.“Red is the powerful color，” said Mark Woodman，a trend analyst who studies color in Laurel，Maryland.“There’s something about red that always comes back to strength and passion.” But the tone of your reds matters，too.Darker reds can help build trust，while lighter red and pink ties can be more of a statement about your personal style and be associated with creativity.When you want to convey a sense of ambition，consider a shiny red.

　　Royal purples

　　Ross Znavor，an executive in financial services in New York，wears purple ties rather than red to business meetings because the color shows a bit of self­confidence and helps him create lasting first impressions.Purple，traditionally a sign of royalty and wealth，is becoming more acceptable in the workplace.

　　Black affairs

　　“While you might not wear them to meetings on a regular basis，wearing black ties to a cocktail party or even a dinner is unique and attractive，” said Zyla.But remember: the formal black color can feel aggressive in many situations.“Avoid it if you are a green­hand at work，” Zyla said.

　　Right blues

　　Afraid of sending the wrong message with your tie color？Consider blue as the all­purpose tie.Blue ties are a good investment because the color reminds people of the sky and ocean.“Blue is the safest color to wear，” Lindsay said.
