So a woman, who runs the Tumblr site
Swiked, innocently asked, “guys please help me – is this dress white and gold, or blue and black? Me and my friends can’t agree and we are freaking the f*ck out.” Well the world wide web obliged and she did what a naked Kim Kardashian couldn’t do, she broke the internet.
People got in fights because some saw the dress as black and blue while others saw it as white and gold. Why are we seeing some people see it one way and others another way? According to
The Health Site, you white and gold people are seeing it because, “When our eyes see something, the first burst of light, and its colour (made of whatever wavelength that corresponds with a particular colour) reflect off what you are seeing. This colour is supposed to be ignored by your brain. But what is happening in this case has a lot to do with evolution. When the human eyes evolved they did so, so that they could see in daylight, but daylight changes in colour and hues.” Us black and blue people are seeing it that way because, “For all those people who see blue and black, let me just say one thing — your vision is absolutely fine.”
So what does #TheDress really look like? You can check out the

So are you bruised or do you have the Midas touch?
