Yellow is the colour that most reminds us of the sun. It gives cheerfulness and joy. It symbolizes change, pursuit ofsomething new and liberation from conventions. It is a synonym of power, in fact Blair has often worn yellow since the pilot: she wears a yellow headband on the MET steps (1x01) and she has yellow accessories – shoes and purse- when she leaves her Constance Queen Bee crown to Jenny (2x25). Chuck uses yellow to show off his “superiority” status. In episode 1x03, he is wearing a yellow polo shirt while he is getting ready for the Ivy League day. Generally speaking, the shirt of the St. Judes uniform – whose colour shows the prestige of the private school – often is red striped when it is worn by Chuck to emphasize the position of power and royalty of his character (1x10).
