Though it is difficult to believe that a style can speak without even saying a word, most people build their conclusions of you upon this so-called `visual speech`. After that they do not bother to listen to you. You are not even given a chance to open your mouth – whether you do it or not your companions are already `deaf`. Honestly speaking, can you tell that you don't treat people like that in return?

We get a great part of the information visually and our first impression contains the priceless clue to other people. The first impression is like a flash that tells you the very truth of the person you've just met.

From the phylogenetic point this flash of understanding is the result of the ancient parts of our brain processing (these parts of brain work really fast and analyze much more information than we can imagine). As the process is very fast, for most people it's left unconscious.

That is why most people miss this first flash and confound it with standard thinking process that starts a moment later. But as soon as you started thinking the perceptual errors are inevitable (it means that you ascribe false qualities to somebody you perceive). That is why it is believed that first impressions are often misleading.

Still it is possible to read people's personality from their style. Some of us are quite good at it. NB: There's a paradox to take into consideration if you're intended to read people' personality too. Knowing about the following two things will help you to avoid perceptual errors:

1. While the style of young people is more vivid, easy to notice and interpret, in most cases they just copy their friends or favorite celebrities. So it's a fact that such style speaks more about what they want to be than about what they really are.

2. In adults the style tells about their real personality that has already formed but in most cases their style is quite undistinguished. It happens because most adults prefer to emphasize their mind not clothes and the opinion of other people is not so much important for them as for teenagers.

The style really speaks to people and there's a proof for you. Imagine, for example, a first off-line date after long pleasant and successful on-line communication when two people are thinking they've found their prince/princess charming. When they meet at last a guy's style tells, `I'm a loser`. And a girl's style tells, `I'm your nightmare`. So what? They've liked to communicate with each other, haven't they? But if the style speaks differently it's usually a bit of a shock.

Sometimes the style speaks foreign language as to the parents of a desperate glam gothic girl wearing pink bracelets with black hearts. They don't understand that she can be near suicide. Though it's just a presumption that she expresses her feelings this way and not just imitating her acquaintances, there's a strong possibility that she is depressed even if she doesn't know the language of her style herself. If not, why should it be this style, these particular colors?

Sometimes the style speaks loudly. When a girl's skirt is shorter than average and the top fits her tightly enough, the hair is blond, the lips are covered with one of the most welcoming lipsticks… Her style speaks international language then even if the girl doesn't mean it.
