Your New Year's Underwear Color Might Bring You Luck

Spoiler alert: New Year's Eve plans rarely set the tone for the year ahead. We've celebrated with sticky, basement college hangs and quiet nights in with our fam, and all of it has led to the same old mix of good and bad. Still, there is one superstition we'll keep in mind while welcoming the year ahead: The color of our underwear, which is said to determine the type of luck a person will have for the next 12 months.

To be honest, we're still unsure when we first found out about this tiny detail, but for most of our lives, we've played along—even as a small way to help bring about love, wealth, and friendship. For the most part, it's just a fun little game, but many countries actually do have long-held traditions of associating underwear color with luck. Even astrologers agree that different colors contain different types of energy. Dressing for your aura might just help to alter your mood and overcome obstacles, while Pantone's Color of the Year is said to help you manifest.

So, if you want to start the new year on a positive note, take a look at the meanings behind each underwear color, then prepare to break out your chosen pair before the clock strikes midnight.

Red

If you're in the mood for more love and romance, wearing red underwear on New Year's is a must. Maybe you're ready for a new relationship, or you're simply tired of being single. Maybe you'd love to spend more time with your significant other and could really use that extra boost.

White

Consider a pair of white undies if you're hoping for more peace and tranquility. Whether it's your job, family, or something else that's stressing you out, this is your reminder to breathe and trust that the future won't always be so tense.

Yellow

Hoping to boost your bank account this coming year? Throw on a pair of yellow panties. This color signifies money and wealth, so perhaps you'll finally land your dream job or get the promotion you've been wishing for in the year ahead.

Black

Go with black now that you're ready to take charge or regain some control. Black means power, and it's also one of the most classic colors. This feels streamlined and organized, plus it signals that you didn't come to play around. You've got your goals. Now, focus and go get them.

Green

You're in the mood for an adventure or, at the very least, a change of scenery. Obviously, green means nature, but it also means life. It might attract that burst of energy you so badly need or send you down a path that means big things for your future. It's full of possibility and a feeling of freedom.

Pink

If you're ready to feel the love in every meaning of the word, then pink is what you're after. This hue might not be as fiery as red; however, it's sweeter and more harmonious. In fact, wearing this color may inspire you to make more concrete plans with your core group or hit up your old work besties for a much-needed happy hour.

Blue

For those of you whose goal this year is to eat better, work out more, and take more mental breaks, try out a blue pair of undies. This one is all about wellness, so wear this color underwear if you need a reminder to prioritize your health and listen to your body heading into the new year.
