OnTheBrink Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 I've been going through my closet, putting new clothes I got for Christmas away, and purging things I don't wear for the thrift store pile. I've noticed that I stick to black, brown/tan/gold, aqua/teal, warm greens, some dark blues. I have two tops in red, and two in peach/orange. Very few patterns, mostly solids. Sounds boring, but I rarely find tops in patterns that I like (although, as sloppy as I am, patterned tops would help hide my messes. LOL Thank goodness for a good stain remover!) What colors do you wear? What's your style? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeekingSimplicity Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Black, red, teal, blue. There's purple creeping in, but those are hand-me-downs from my MIL. Mostly solids Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sophia Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 I tend to go with solids as well. My closet is full of black and vibrant colors~royal blue, and reds. I avoid white because I always spill something on myself when I wear it :lol:. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belacqua Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 My husband refers to our closet as "The Beige Palace." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyJoy Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 The bulk of my wardrobe is purple, red, fuschia, teal, and black. I also have a small subset of more earthy brown, maroon, forest green, and tan for when the mood strikes me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fairytalemama Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 My closet is predominantly red and black. Red is my favorite color so anyone who buys me clothes as a gift always buys red (or there's always my MIL who every single Christmas buys me a shirt with horizontal stripes. :001_huh: Yes, every single Christmas.). I'm trying to branch out in the color department with my shirts. If you were to check the tags of my clothes, 90% of them would be from the Gap or Ann Taylor Loft. I tend to wear a bright colored plain tee with jeans or black slacks topped off with a chunky necklace and fun shoes (I love my leopard print flats). And I agree about white---if I'm wearing a white shirt, something is going to happen. Like the year I was making cranberry orange relish with the meat grinder attachment of my Kitchen Aid and somehow there was a relish explosion right on my white shirt.

Catwoman Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 I wear cool-toned colors, plus black and white. Cat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WistfulRidge Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Dark, deeper greens and blues, brown, black, and occasionally white, andfaded/pastel darker teals and purples. My mother thinks I dress too gloomy and always gets me something bright blue/teal for Christmas. It goes well with my hair (very red) but I've got pink toned skin so bright colors always make me look sunburnt... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mom2J112903 Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Jewel tones for the most part. Mixed in with some light pinks and yellows. I have very few "drab" colors but when I do wear them, they are paired with a much deeper and richer color :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Strawberry Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Black, gray, dark blue, baby pink, splashes of red and purple. All solids. I like that everything in my closet goes with everything else. I figured this out when I was around 15, and have stuck with it ever since. I have a stack of short, khaki skirts-like jeans skirt, but khaki. I usually dislike khaki, but I <3 these skirts over a pair of black tights and some layered tanks. So cute! My maternity pants are almost all khaki, too, but that's out of necessity, and I only wear them at home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcconnellboys Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Those sound much like my colors. I don't wear black on top, just bottoms. More grey, navy, browns. I can't do reds, they are too strong for me, too. And I do lighter blues and violet shades, too. Also lots of creams..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elise1mds Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Blue, bright red, black, and denim are about all I ever wear. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daisy Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Green, Brown, Black, Navy, Denim, and a very few oranges & reds. My favorite colors are green and brown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Rat Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 I have a very relaxed style, mostly jeans and cords with tshirt type tops. My colors are mostly browns and blacks with darker greens and blues. In the spring, fingers crossed, I hope to buy some new tops that flatter my curvy figure a bit more-v necks and button downs.

Murphy101 Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Denim and shades of brown, some black. Shirts are a free for all. Because just about anything matches denim, plus a few other things for brown and black. I mostly live in jeans, so coordination really isn't much of a problem here.
