    Red Leopard

    Have you ever stopped to think, really think, about which colours suit you best when buying your clothes, eyewear and accessories? We all have colours we love, but are these colours truly bringing out the best in us? What messages are we giving out when we choose to wear certain colours? Can wearing different colours make us come across, for example, as more credible, or more successful, or more confident, or more empathic, or more sensitive? Manina Weldon and Rachel Saunders run Red Leopard, and they believe passionately in the important of choosing and wearing the right colours. It goes without saying that Jason Kirk is just as passionate about colours, taking risks, being bold. And all this makes for a fascinating episode of The Eyes Have It, as Jason, Manina and Rachel look in depth and how we can all use colours to our advantage. Check out our other podcasts including, Jason Bell, Kwame Alexander, Morcheeba, Kirsten Vangsness, Alexandra Wood and The McCarricks.
