I personally agree with discipleofthegods. Even now that I can use all colours to some extent, I don't wear grey anymore. But it's up to you. I tend to strategically choose colours when I have a specific goal in mind.
For example, if I'm practicing sports and calisthenics, I prefer wearing male colours (reds, oranges, golds and yellows), because they are active colours. Golden yellow is related to the solar plexus chakras, which is your storehouse of energy. Orange is ruled by Sun and rules your sacral chakra; it represents energy, stamina, enthusiasm, creativity. All things needed when you practice fitness and sports. Red is ruled by Mars and represents energy too, passion, strength, athletics, self-confidence and so on. I will never understand why most guys choose to wear white, black, dark blues and greys all the time. It just doesn't make sense, especially in this area of life.
About VIPs, they are not so easily known to the public, especially the newbies.
