Eyes on your colour palette

[ReloadPsi]

My wardrobe has gone through a few shifts in colour over the last decade, most notably the fact I used to wear all black (literally; a decade ago every item of clothing I owned was black except for one blue t-shirt) and that was all I'd wear because it was my favourite colour and it made laundry ridiculously easy.

Over time I started to incorporate more blue (mostly through jeans) but shirts and shoes/boots/skate shoes/trainers would always still be black.

Eventually, about four years ago, I suddenly broke this trend for no particular reason (probably on account of a self-esteem boost gained in college) and my colours got brighter. My family freaked the first time I started walking around in a pair of white and black skate shoes and my shirts started to include a lot of greens and browns. Beige shorts became all I'd wear in summer and I went from wearing black socks to white ones, which was probably just as well because for some disturbing reason black socks made my feet grey, even thought I was changing them every day and bathing/showering regularly.

In more recent times, I tend to wear greenish-olive-grey pants acquired in outdoors shops (one of my friends calls it "forest service green" based on some ranger's uniform in some location I forget) and my shirts and hoodies are still mostly black, brown, olive-green and occasionally beige. (Basically I seem to like very military-looking colours despite being a self-professed misanthropist pacifist. Go figure.) Anyone who hasn't seen me in ten years would probably think I was some original character submission to DeviantArt (DO NOT STEAL) and not me at all, and if they were especially nerdy they'd probably ask what I did to player 1. I is witty.

So, with all these eyes on specific clothing choices threads, I now ask you to talk about how you colour your person.

I usually wear things that are dark green, brown, or black, but almost always with a light blue button-up shirt over it. My jackets and sweaters are all brown or black, and my undershirts are all black. The only pants I have other than ACU and BDU are khaki or black jeans. I had some blue jeans a while ago but I have no idea where they went.

A few years ago I noticed that pretty much everything I owned was some sort of blue color, typically a dark blue. Since then, I have cultivated a wardrobe full of every color imaginable. All of my jeans are still blue though.

I'm usually wearing a work uniform.

In the rare event that I'm not, I'm wearing a random t-shirt from my closet.

I used to wear a lot of black. I still kind of do, but I have more colorful shirts now. When I was younger the black clothes were me being a typical teen of the mid/late 90's being angry for no good reason. Now, I just think I look better in darker colors.

I wear all the colors but I don't have a lot of yellow as it doesn't look good on me.

Each morning I choose a random shirt from the pile of black and white polo shirts. If this shirt is black i will wear light cream sort of coloured pants. If this shirt is white i will wear dark grey or black pants. I also have a red shirt and a green shirt for st patricks day/valentines day/chinese new year/christmas and all that jazz. I also sometimes wear my red shirt if I know Im going to be seeing someone i want to seduce that day

In order of most common: Black, White, Red, Blue, Grey, Green. I have a couple of miscellaneous colours in there somewhere but my clothes are at home and I can't be assed thinking too hard. Mixing and matching my clothes is pretty easy. I always look damn good, bitches.

[NorthernChaosGod]

Most of my t-shirts are black, but I have made a conscious effort to get some in other colors. I do have some button downs that are fairly colorful in that they incorporate more than just black.

I usually wear blue jeans; a t-shirt, most of which are primarily gray and navy blue, though there's a bit of green and red somewhere in my pile of clothes; and a jacket, which is brown and striped horizontally with darker brown. How boring am I? :P

[Shlup]

I think I have a pretty even distribution of just about every color.

My wardrobe used to be all colours as a child in the 90s but then so was everyone's wardrobe. Over my teen years my wardrobe became black, black and more black with blue in the form of denim, I had a blue denim jacket which I used to wear everywhere and a dark brown flight jacket my mom brought me which was like 2 sizes too big for me that I'd wear in winter because even massively big for me it was the warmest thing I owned. I used to get girls outside of clubs come up to me and ask if they could snuggle up to me inside my coat, depending on the girls you could fit 2 girls in it with me. If there wasn't black on my body it was a miracle, most of the clubs I'd go to were goth/metal clubs and so I was right down in that fashion group though my clothing never became extremely goth. Then I ended up bringing in a lot of drab olive green and browns. I did at the age of around 19 have an awesome pair of brown jeans which survived me breaking my kneecap in them (well the right knee was ripped in 2 places pretty nastily, I simply asked my mom to stitch a band patch removed from my denim jacket under the rips) It wasn't really until I was in my 20s however that my wardrobe really opened up, it began with t-shirts being brought in colours other than drab military-esque ones and blue or black and instead the colour red made a massive intro. Purples too, my work uniform at the time for Sainsbury's was purple and orange and it suited me so I took the lesson learnt and brought purples and right now I can admit to owning an orange t-shirt. I then began bringing it in to the button down shirts, I have an electric blue shirt for example and a purple one and I broke away from simple solid colour shirts and brought checked ones.

I'll still have a button down on most days since I enjoy wearing them, but it's increasingly more common that the shirt I'm wearing will either be checked or another colour other than black.

My wardrobe consists of black clothing and a coonskin hat.

[Jessweeee♪]

Yeah, in high school mine was mostly blacks and greys, all T-shirts, jeans, and hoodies, but now it's all fugly secretary shirts and tank tops for the weekend. I've been searching for the perfect summer dress. I found it, but by the time I had room in my budget to buy an item of clothing, it was gone.

Purple, sky blue, magenta, and white.

Men colors.
