Dress For Success
1. A piece of money tied to or around your ankle prevents poverty.
2. Wear red clothes.
3. If a man walks around with his hat brim turned up behind, he's got money to spend.
4. If a man has one pant leg tucked in his boot and one pant leg out, he has money.
"If you can't dress for success, at least dress for trying."
~ Lynne Alpern
To prevent evil spirits from entering the bodies of their male children, parents dressed them in blue. Blue was chosen because it's the color of the sky and was therefore associated with heavenly spirits. Girls weren't dressed in blue, apparently because people didn't think that evil spirits would bother with them. Eventually, however, girls did get their own color: pink. Pink was chosen because of an old English legend which said that girls were born inside of pink roses.
