How are the colours of navratri decide? How do they change sequence every year?

During Navratri, 9 forms of goddess durga are worshiped in each of the 9 days. Each of the forms of the goddess has one unique color associated. The goddess is adorned with that color on that day.
The sequence of colors are determined by the week day on which navratri starts. This year Navratri starts on 21st September which is a Thursday. Thursday is always associated with color Yellow and the rest of the colors follow the sequence in a fixed order.
