How to style yourself during this Chinese New Year?
Leap into the Year of the Tiger with a look that would make the God of Wealth shower his benevolence upon you!
It is the time of the year again to get rid of the old and welcome in the new. Chinese New Year is celebrated to mark the end of winter and herald the spring. It is an important celebration for the Chinese community all over the world and has a strong influence in other Asian communities that observe the lunar calendar as well, such as in the Vietnamese, Tibetan, and Korean cultures. One of the most important observations of the season is the thorough spring cleaning that Chinese families do prior to the day of Chinese New Year, as they believe that by doing so, they seep away ill fortune and make way for good luck. This also includes new clothes and outfits for CNY – but not many are aware that good Feng Shui extends to clothes as well! For the year of the tiger, the auspicious colours are green (vitality), blue (wisdom), and black (power).
