Are there any colours you never wear?

I never wear olive green, mustard, dark brown or any sludgy colours. They all make me look ill.

Grey, yellow or green.

Peach or yellow. Had my colours ‘done’ years ago and shown they did nothing for me. Just as well, as they’re colours I don’t have in the house or garden either.

Purple or lilac, which I just don’t like, or brown, which I find brings my mood down. I’m also not a fan of pastel colours on me, too insipid, although they can look lovely on others.

Yellow. Makes my skin look sallow.

Had my colours done too, years ago. Treated by mum after my divorce. Never wear brown, mustard, cream or olive green. They make me look ill. It’s a shame because I’d love to wear cream.

Salmon pink drains me.

I don't wear green. Mum was superstitious about it and never let me wear it, so when I left school I bought beautiful dark green best coat, but while walking along the seafront one day a large wave swept over me and the coat was ruined.
So I don't wear green 😁

All green shades make me look ill. I tend to avoid yellow too. I did my colours online and cool shades suit me best, blues, purple pink, grey.

Peach
Apricot
Blue/Pink/Lilac in the "clear" solid shades you often find in fleeces.
Beige
Salmon

I will wear most of these colours if they just happen to be part of a pattern.

Black, olive green. I am really a spring person.

But generally I love colour - it lifts my mood. So yesterday I had on a bright cerise cardigan, under which I wore a green blouse with flowered pattern which included cerise in it.

My DG wore brown all the time because she'd been told it suited her when she was young. When she was old and grey that was no longer the case.

My DM told me this and as she and her DMiL disliked eachother, I can't be sure it's true. 😄

I find myself attracted to the same colours. Deep red, dark blue, bluey greens.
Preferably not all together.
Not black, or white, ¹not yellow although I have a favourite mustard scarf.
Not pink. I like it on others.
Not pastels .

I have several grey nightdresses and a dark brown dress. I must be turning into grandma 😂🤣😅

Parts of Scotland still have sectarian bias, so people avoid wearing green when the Orange march is going past.

That seems so weird! Sort of two centuries ago.

I love colour and will entertain most colours but perhaps peach is a colour I’d avoid, not that I dislike it, is just a bit wishy washy as a colour, but could tolerate it if mixed with other colours.

Yellow! Never ever, it makes me look jaundiced.
I never wore red until I went grey but now wear it a lot.
Muddy colours suited me when young, but now I tend to wear “clean” colours which suits my aged complexion and grey hair better.

I had my colours done too and, from the many suggested, I wear mostly colours in the pink/purple range. Those are colours that I feel comfortable with - in the house too.

I never wear greens, browns or yellows.

Solid beige and orange although I do have clothes in patterned fabrics that might feature a bit of either........do hope that makes sense

I can't wear stark white - it drains my complexion - but what I call winter white, which is the colour of oyster shells, suits me really well. It's hard to find any clothes that shade though. Also beige and sludgy colours don't suit me. I wear a lot of denim blue, turquoise, purple and jade green.

I don't wear beige, brown or white. Im not keen on pastel shades either definitely wouldn't wear peach. I like colour either block or patterns.
I wear a lot of purple. Cerise, blue and some shades of green.

I hate pink, probably because my mother made me wear it so much lol
I mainly wear black and red, occasionally purple

At one time I would have said pink, but the last couple of years, I seem to have been drawn to it. Generally I like deeper shades of red, purple, blue.

Orange and lime green. I like all the reds but not pink. I have a fair skin though I wear a tan makeup, mostly to keep the sun off (fear of melanoma after my husband was diagnosed with one of the ghastly things)

Green, orange, yellow and grey.

I once got hemmed in, driving a green car in the middle of an orange walk parade in Glasgow.
Some marchers were shouting abuse at me as they passed. It was quite scary.

I am having a clear out at the moment. I have realised that peach does not suit me at all. I love colourful clothes, but as I get older, realise that some colours no longer suit me.
When I was working, I wore a lot of black, with a splash of colour, now I look like death warmed up.

Yesterday, I treated myself to a cerise, cashmere sweater. The colour is beautiful.
