Tie Colors are like a Gentlemans mood ring: What will Obamas say tonight?

Another Wednesday and another week is half gone, I hope yours has been well up to this point. Unless you have been living under a rock then you are well aware that tonight brings us the long awaited, highly publicized State of The Union address from President Barack Obama. While representatives from the left and from the right are analyzing what the talking points will be and what they will mean, the Modern Gentleman is taking a slightly different approach. The colors we choose to wear represent our overall moods and our current positions on certain subject matter (even if it is subconsciously). Specifically, tie colors have always been a representation of how we feel or where we feel we rank in a certain social situation. So what color will President Obama be wearing tonight and what will that say about what he is truly thinking and feeling? Here's a list of tie colors and what they mean...tune in to the State of the Union tonight to see if his color choice represents his message...or if its a sign that hes not expressing how he truly feels.

1. Red: This is a power color and it symbolizes strength, wealth, leadership, passion and, in many instances, is a color of luck. Experts on the matter say that if you need to "lead your team to a hard victory" and instill confidence, than this is a good color. Could be a good choice for the President.


2. Blue: Blue is a calming color and seeks to express peace and neutrality. A hostel situation would be the perfect arena to sport the blue tie. Again, a valuable option for President Obama


3. Yellow: This color is a little difficult to break down and analyze. GQ ran a story awhile back that said that yellow was the new power tie. However, some feel that yellow represents energy and vibrancy. A strong personality is needed to pull this color off effectively and I doubt you will see this color on Obama tonight. Not because hes not strong but because the situation doesn't call for it.


4. Green: In business this represents money.....well at least growth and prosperity. My call is that this is another color we wont see on Obama tonight.

5. Brown: This color represents the average, everyday man. It says that your practical and down to earth and slightly reserved. There's no way you will see this color tonight.


There are definitely more colors that we could analyze here but these are the most common and the most probable. My official prediction is Red, although he may sport the blue to represent the color of his political party.
