According to the field of color study, your favorite color reveals your personality. It’s part of what's called color psychology.
Figuring out your personality color is extremely easy. The quiz to get your results is simply this: if you had to pick one favorite color what it would be? Don’t think about it in terms of design or what you like to wear, but without overthinking it, pick the color that appeals to you most and write down the first one (or few) that comes to mind. Blue is the top choice for 35% of Americans, followed by green (16%), purple (10%) and red (9%).
Faber Birren, studier and practitioner of the color industry, said, “It is possible to make fairly accurate judgments about the meaning of color preferences and their revelations of personality traits.”
It seems pretty logical, doesn’t it? Color has long been used to create feelings of coziness or spaciousness. However, how people are affected by different color stimuli varies from person to person. However, color psychology has yet to be a well-studied subject. Very little research has been done and most information you find on this subject has anecdotal evidence, if any. Even so, a lot of the evidence that has been unearthed is very compelling.

I am in the lower percentage of favorite colors. I can't choose which I like the best, red or purple.
Interestingly enough, both personality descriptions seem to "fit" me, so I guess I'm a "mixed breed".
Read your personality description here:
Pink
Generally, there are two types of people favor pink: the person who has led a very sheltered life and the person who has grown and seeks to regain the innocence of childhood. In pink there is affection, delicacy and an inner conviction, often naive, that life should be a gentle affair devoid of trials and tribulations. Additionally, you have a deep need to be accepted and loved unconditionally. Younger people who like pink sometimes hold to the illusion that life should be constantly romantic and generous.
Red
Red personality color suggests strong will, ambition and energy. This is the color of extroversion, of a person with desire, appetite, a will to live life fully. You are somewhat aggressive, impulsive, perhaps athletic, surely quick to release your feelings and emotions. You have many ups and downs in your feelings.
To you, life is meant to be happy, and when it isn’t, you are confused and upset. You hate monotony, are quick to judge people, quick to form opinions and boldly express them.
Orange
With orange as your favorite color, you are warm, optimistic, extroverted and often flamboyant. You are friendly, good natured and a generally agreeable person. You are assertive and determined rather than aggressive; having a personality color orange means you are more lighthearted and less intense than those who love red. You likely enjoy lots of socialization and all kinds of people.
Yellow
People with this personality type are happy and cheerful, while also being perfectionists and dreamers. You have great expectations and diligently seek self-fulfillment. Yellow is a hue of idealism. Your manner may be aloof, but you are not shy. You may occasionally feel an awkward moment, but you never get rattled.
You are creative, often being the one who comes up with new ideas - an ideas person who needs others to bring the ideas into reality - you tend to have your head in the clouds much of the time. In many respects you are longing for things. You are good at formulating plans, but may not be energetic enough to carry them out. You think things through clearly, are logical and consistent.
Green
According to color psychology, people with strong preference for green strive for safety, security and acknowledgement. They need to love and be loved. You are sure to be constant in your ways, persevering, sensible and respectable. You have a good balance. Outspoken, with a love of freedom, those who like green are generally social and live in a good neighborhood, have many friends and belong to social organizations. You tend to resist change. You like parties and you like to eat – and may usually be on a diet. Your social standing, financial position and reputation are all of top importance to you. You constantly seek affirmation of companionship and affection.
Blue
Blue personality color suggests a tendency to having a fixed set of principles and desire to live according to these principles. It is also a peaceful personality type. You want a serene world and a calm life and you want your affairs to be orderly and neat. An introvert, you are deliberate, introspective, but perhaps not too intellectual, though you're still steady and a hard worker.
Though you have a tendency to be egotistical and opinionated, you know how to accept responsibility and obligation. You are sensitive to others and have a secure hold on your emotions.
Purple
Two types of people like purple. The first is sensitive, with deep insight, temperamental and creative with meaningful things to do and passionate devotion to them. The second type admires artists, mystics and unique people. This type feels there should be gentility, courtesy and affection everywhere, and no war, disease or poverty.
Some lovers of purple are charming and adoring patrons of the arts and others are true artists themselves.
