Re: What clothing colors will you NEVER wear?

[ Edited ]

All shades of pink, olive and sage green, rust, yellow, orange, all shades of brown, pastels, ivory, gold (wear gold jewelry, but prefer and look best in silver).  

 

Pretty much everything that is not black, white, gray, midnight navy, and jewel tones.

I wear most colors, but magenta makes my skin look terrible.

Pastel pink, blue, lavender are horrible on me.

White, and any pastels, they make me look ill.

Orange, yellow, lime green, fushia, anything florescent.  I've noticed that anything I buy anymore is either a shade of blue or black.  I'm stuck.

Re: What clothing colors will you NEVER wear?

I never buy clothing, outerwear, belts, shoes or handbags that are yellow, olive, khaki, tan, taupe, almond, camel, or beige, as those colors make me look sickly and just plain bad.  The good news is that I don't particularly like those colors, and I don't feel like I am missing anything by not wearing them.  (Although I love yellow daffodils.)

Chartreuse 

 

Such a bad color for almost everyone. Me...blonde, golden tones in my skin...hideous on me!

 

African American skin tones can wear it, some brunettes with olive complexion. But basically, ugh...color of baby p*ke.

I never wear red or yellow.  I do have a pair of red boots... and one red handbag... but as far as clothing NO RED.  I have no Yellow at all in my wardrobe. 


 

This made me smile too...my mom always said.."I'm not a Red person" whenever we were shopping. I don't do much red either...I do like a brick, warm toned red on me...but own almost no red. As for yellow...no bright yellow, but I can wear pale, buttery, ivory toned type yellow..which I love in decorating too.

Yellow.  DH and I both agree that I do not look good in any shade of yellow.

Yellow makes me look jaundiced.

 

I can't even wear makeup with yellow undertones, I have pink undertones in my light complexion with blond hair and blue eyes.

 

The closest I'll get to green is teal, I love teal!

I much prefer jewel tones over pastels.
