There's something about the colour yellow that is so appealing to me. It could be bright, cheery yet classy (not tacky like orange) plus I like the way it goes with my honey brown hair. Even my newly acquired tan shows up better. I am so living in yellow this summer.
My favourite yellows:
Yolks - Sunny side ups are best! Although when it comes to eggs I will eat just about anything, any way.
Cancer foundation bracelet - My boyfriend used to wear a yellow one and call me crazy but rubber bracelets had never looked so hot. Men + accessories = drool.
Downlighting at my new house - Not the best for eyes if you're trying to read, but definitely more romantic that the average neon.

When assigned as a label (Not as a skin colour), it is the colour of the outcast, the pariah.
Yellow is the designated colour of the coward.
Jews were obliged to wear yellow squares in England during the reign of Edward 1 and yellow stars in Germany during Hitler's rule.

Found this paragraph for you which may be usefull -
Yellow is a bright, cheerful color, often associated with happiness and peace.
The Yellow KidIn the English language, yellow has traditionally been associated with jaundice and cowardice. In American slang, a coward is said to be "yellowbellied" or "yellow."
In Hindu mythology it is considered that yellow has the power to influence the intellect. In South Korea the color yellow is associated with jealousy.
Near the end of the 19th century, the color yellow was often associated with mental illness, specifically including insanity, and with other sorts of mental problems (e.g. depravity). Examples include The Yellow Book, The Yellow Wallpaper, The King in Yellow, and The Yellow Sign.
In Chinese culture, yellow is associated with royalty but can also refer to a "yellow movie", i.e. a pornographic film (analogous to pink movies in Japan and blue movies in the West). Similarly, in Malay the term budaya kuning (lit. "yellow culture") is used to refer to lewd or uncouth behaviour, with the implication that such culture is an import from Western societies.
Because it is similar to the gold color and precious metals such as gold or bronze, yellow is associated with coinage and bullion.
"Yellow journalism" was sensationalist journalism that distorts, exaggerates, or exploits news to maximize profit. The term came from Joseph Pulitzer's New York World and William Randolph Hearst's New York Journal American, who engaged in sensational reporting during the late 19th and early 20th century, most famously during the Spanish-American War. The term was derived from the color comic strip The Yellow Kid, which appeared in both papers.

i like yellow cuz it reminds me of actiony things, if that makes sense. what i mean is, like the brides costume in kill bill was yellow, and in that suit she did a lot of actiony things. yellow also feels a little like calm before the storm feeling. yeah, hard to explain
