Hi all. I'm hoping you can help me. I was reading a post on the Q Forum sometime this week about the style of dressing where you choose 2 neutrals and a color and you stick to that color scheme so that everything in your wardrobe goes. I'd like to explore that further, but I can't seem to find the post. Do any of you remember what that is called? It had a name. Trying to streamline my wardrobe a bit. Thanks for any help you can provide!

@AriannyI didn't see that post, but I love that idea. I'm close to that, but would love to get myself even more streamlined. Hope someone clues us in.

OK - I'm confused. Are you saying someone would only have two neutrals in their entire wardrobe - say khacki and grey - then only one color - say red - and that would be their entire wardrobe?

Hi @millieshops! I need to revamp my fall/winter work wardrobe and would like to buy more of a set palette rather than the mish mosh that I've had in the past. Looking to have less clothes but more options since everything will work together.

Yes @151949 - I believe that's what it is. Unless my understanding of it is incorrect. I think it's just wardrobe builder basics. I'm looking to start fresh and streamline.

I had to wear blue scrubs to work every day - day in & day out - blue scrubs. Now I can't stand to wear light blue and never will again. I think you would get very tired of that color.

I pretty much do that already. I buy stuff to go with jeans.... light blue, dark blue and black. Jeans are my neutral because that's what I wear most of the time. If I look at a piece of clothing to buy, I ask myself first "will it go with my jeans?" and if it won't then I usually pass on it.

I don't stray far from that. Almost all of my basics (pants, skirts) are black or some variation of beige/tan/stone/. I stick to pink/red, blue, and white/gray/black for the most part. I have few orange/coral things, so mostly everything goes well with my basic shoes, which are also blacks and nude/beige/tan.
The best thing is it cuts down on stuff in the closet.

Are you thinking of a capsule wardrobe? Pinterest has many, many examples.

Sorry, but when it comes to clothes, I think "more is more." 😀 I don't want to simplify or scale back.
