@Boadicea and Cherrytree59, it sounds as if you have synesthesia. It is where the senses merge and is actually rather fun. About 1% of the population has it. I have it, too, but in a slightly different way as mine is sound related. I sense colours for the different keys - G major is green, F major is orange, D minor is indigo, C minor, the key associated with funeral pieces, is black. B minor is remote and silver, whereas cheerful A major is red. This is just a sample. When I read, many words have different scents - my favourite is romance, which gives me a fragrant rose perfume.
When it comes to clothes, I love colour. I have found that Autumn colours suit me best so red, gold, burnt orange, brown, burgundy, green, peach and pink are the colours I wear most. I like blue but find that I have to be careful with the shade of blue and it is better if it is not the dominant colour - French navy is better than airforce blue. I prefer navy to black, which is very draining on me and leeches out all colour on my already very fair skin. The worst colour for me is grey, which gives me a corpse-like complexion. Not good. I have had a lot of compliments today on the outfit I wore to church. It was a Joe Browns dress in diagonal stripes of red, brown, white and burnt orange, which l teamed with a vintage St. Michael label open cardigan. The cardigan is brown with burnt orange lapels.
