Which denomination are you thinking of? There are some differences. The most common liturgical color for the Easter season is white, or possibly gold.
This is a good site for determining the Catholic liturgical color for any particular day:

White: Feasts of Our Lord, Christmas, Easter, Feasts of Saints who are not martyrs, Feasts of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Trinity Sunday (Sunday after Pentecost), Weddings, Funerals.
Green: The season after Epiphany (Jan 6) and the season following Trinity Sunday; also known as the Sundays after the Epiphany and the Sundays after Pentecost, or Ordinary Time in the Roman Catholic Church.
Red: Pentecost (50 days after Easter), Feasts of Martyrs, Feasts of the Holy Spirit.
Blue: The Season of Advent (the 4 Sundays before Christmas); sometimes also used on Feasts of the Blessed Virgin Mary since blue is the color most associated with her.
Purple/Violet: The Season of Lent (begins on Ash Wednesday).
Crimson/Scarlet: Palm Sunday and Holy Week (the week before Easter). Purple/violet may be used instead.
Black: Ash Wednesday in some denominations, though purple/viiolet may be used instead.
Note also that gold or silver may be used in place of white vestments.

This one has some of the dates in the colors of the seasons. Try that and see if it helps.
God bless,
