Red is not typically one of my go-to colors, but nothing says celebration like red. Red conveys a sense of passion and intensity so much so that the phrases “Power Tie”and “Red Carpet” conjure up strong images. Crimson, ruby and rouge can all speed up your heart rate.
Think of Valentino and red is the first color that comes to mind. He practically invented the c
olor. He’s the Ferrari of the fashion world.
The last two covers of Elle Décor featured red as the dominant color in their room designs. I think they may be on to something here.
One of my favorite fabric lines-Marimekko-often uses a pop of red with both orange and pink to really make a statement. And it’s a match made in heaven with a red Arne Jacobsen Egg Chair. 
And red is such a popular color for front doors because it really stands out and looks great with almost any house color.

When asked which color I like, I wouldn't normally choose red first, but you're right ~ I'm always drawn to a red front door and I do like to wear red on occasion {I've been told it's a good color for me} and it does always seem to grab your attention in advertising, clothing, cars, etc.
Red is a truly inspiring color...I have rediscovered it this season, due to buying red placemats from Williams-Sonoma! Now I can't get enough of it.
