do you have a wardrobe palette?

I’m noticing a distinct pattern emerging in my ‘Fashion Finds’ board on Pinterest.* I mean, I already knew I was really into navy blues and greys, but I had no idea I was so drawn to pastels! Being a fair-skinned person, I always assumed those colors just washed me out and made me look ghostly. That could also just be the fluorescent lights I’ve worked in for the past, oh, seven years?

I recently read a minimalist article about paring down your wardrobe to contain only items you love in flattering colors that you adore and would wear all the time (and ditching everything else). I love this idea, my closet is FULL of items that I don’t love, bought because they were on sale, or that I thought “yeah, I might wear this once in a while.” Imagine having a closet full of stuff you actually love, that you would feel GREAT about yourself in.

So, tell me about you my friends - do you generally stick to a certain family of colors/shades for your wardrobe or are you more of the “anything goes” type?

Here are a few more images from my board:

*Besides just being a great image collecting apparatus, Pinterest is a great tool for bookmarking fashion/home pieces that catch your eye and discovering what your overall palette should be. If you want an invite, leave a comment or shoot me an email – I have 5 more!
