What Is Your Major Neutral Color?

ECBG — Sat, 04 Jun 2022 01:03:45 GMT

My major neutral color is black. To me navy is a "color" and can't be mixed as easily.

Some coloring needs navy to be the main neutral, black can be harsh on their complexion.

I wear a lot of black clothing. Olive colors look good on me and with black.

Navy. And it is a perfect neutral.

Denim blue. I wear blue jeans with almost everything in my closet.

I generally only wear what I consider neutrals... black, white, navy and red. I accent with other colors.

Most of my clothes are black, white, and blue (all shades and tones).

Navy is my neutral. As mentioned, black is too harsh for me.

Navy is also my base color.

Black when I worked because it was easy and always looked right. Now that I don't have to be on-point for meetings and conferences, I don't have a neutral.

I am a neutral person. I will always go for softer colors, and pale neutrals. Talbots summer colors geared toward soft blues and turquoses are the flavor of the summer.

I got the white jean jacket with navy today and am in love with it with white jeans and a navy t-shirt!

I don't like black or navy. My neutrals would be shades of green or shades of brown

@ECBG @I love cream, beige, tan, but they mostly wash me out. I wear mostly black, gray, navy, white.

When I think neutrals I immediately think "wheats", sand, and I love those in some summery, woven sweaters, like with a white pant.

But I love ivories, whites, olives and navy, too, for neutrals. Navy especially in summer. And white is always a favorite.

That whole white tee or "crisp white shirt" with a navy blazer, & great jean, can't be beat in my book.

I do black in winter, of course; it can be striking, it can also be harsh at times...and I find more these days I'm liking more color than black on me, like swapping navy for it.

@ECBG Though, you do make a good point...but I think designers have "muddied up" navy and sometimes don't do a true, deep, navy, which is more neutral than some of the lighter colors they pass for it sometimes.

@ECBG I've gravitated towards black since college. Sometimes I add dark charcoal grey, white and of course, denim.

I had a favorite camel blazer and a few tan/taupe/beige sweaters, but had to give them up now that my hair is silver.

Grey. I used to be obssessed with it, LOL! It's still my favorite. I like Black too, except for in the summer. I also love variations of black like washed black, etc.

Black, hands down. I've never felt as comfortable in navy. But I also like white, gray, and oatmeal or a linen-type color if it's not too yellow.

And I wear denim jeans all the time so I guess that color too.

Navy. I don't wear black at all. Black would wash me out and make me older and tired. Navy is the backbone of my wardrobe I wear navy pants, jackets, coats, shoes, purses, and tops.

I only wear colors in my cool palette so my wardrobe colors mix and match with everything I own. It has never been so easy for me to dress in my life. I finally have my perfect wardrobe.

Black - All my dresses are black, as are my "dressy" pants sets. Gives me unlimited options of color combos.

White is second neutral.
