He suggests incorporating other colors or bright accessories like bags, scarves, or hats to soften the overall look and project a more vibrant aura.

Ripped clothing can easily 'leak air,' leading to a loss of good fortune and potentially attracting 'poor ghosts.'

For women, excessively revealing or off-the-shoulder clothing is also discouraged, as it might attract unwanted attention from "lustful ghosts."
