@ECBG  I'm sure you're right!!  I'm sure they're trained to sell not only multiples of the same item, but entire outfits.  Granted, that's just good business, but give them a little training!

@brii***Cute!  On runways it's as they say "editorial" meaning it's the designer who, can be quirky, but you'd look like a "rainbow with a sick stomach in reality!"!!!

I don't pay attention to their color combinations.  I'm a matchy kind of old grandma, even my jewelry!

 

Look, I'm a Boomer and (maybe it's my eyesight) but when you start mixing plaid with prints, my eyes go all goolby ****** and I think I'm looking cross-eyed!

 

You will never be able to convince me prints can be worn with dots or plaids, etc.

"Cockamamie."   Howling belly laughter!  I haven't heard that in a while.  Oh, and as to the original post - ditto!

I wear mostly black and white,it makes life simpler.  I do throw in olive and blue jeans every so often.

All we hear is its so "chic" to layer all these ridiculous looking tops and colors.

Sorry. I think it just looks cheap.  And unfortunately some look like the Michelin Man with all those layers. To each his own.......

None of the hosts will ever say: actually, those colors do NOT look good together. 

It's all about selling!
