Open your closet...
What colors do you see?

Me...I have lots of black, white, neutrals, and very few bright colors. (Got a pair of turquoise blue cowboy boots though :-) )

What about you?

I have too much black. I also have an inordinate amount of orange. Looks like a Hallolween.

7. Black and white and a few bright colors
I am no longer afraid of pink and I love all blues and turquoise and purple. I am not big on green, and, especially brown. Earth tones are not my thing. My boots are black leather and light tan suede.:shrug:

8. My wardrobe is simple.
The only pants I wear are Ben Davis. I think I have most of the colors. The ones used most are black, khaki, brown, and blue. I only wear white button down shirts both long and short sleeved. White tee-shirts and every color tie made by a company called string-bean. They make narrow ties and I won't wear normal ones since I am so skinny. A pair of black polish-able shoes from Sears and a pair of black Etnies. For warmth I have a black wool coat and a Gray and black hooded sweatshirts.

That is my wardrobe. I'm simple.

10. Literally dozens of golf shirts, mostly dark
Seemingly every relative buys me 1-3 golf shirts for Christmas and my birthday. Extremely varying taste and quality. I've finally convinced my mother to drop a hint to them that perhaps I don't need any more.

I started preferring dark shirts a few years ago when I turned 40 and my old V-torso seemed to modify itself. Plenty of dark blues and forrest greens.

Otherwise, several nice tweed sportcoats that never leave. Button down shirts that are much too involved, stripes everywhere. I really need to oust them and simplify. My dress pants are all 34 long, mostly light in color and only about a third of them actually fit.

I love cordoruy pants but at 90+ degrees my collection will sit for 6 more months.

Right now I'm wearing a white Seattle Slew T-shirt, an eBay gem. I also have a dark Native Dancer T-shirt, royal blue Winnipeg Blue Bomber T-shirt and a Slippery Rock T-shirt.

12. Black, gray, white dress shirts,
and a couple (kama'aina-style) aloha shirts. But otherwise, pretty much everything is black.

13. Lots of flowers
In my closet contained are primarily skirts and dresses (not many blouses- I don't like blouses usually preferring knits), but of those skirts and dresses, many are flowery I must admit. A few long, Bohemian sort of skirts, and a multitude of shoes. I love sandals especially.

Summer's here! :bounce:

14. Just about anything you can imagine...
except chartreuse. I don't look good in that color. Lots of striped and plaid shirts. Very little black; I find it depressing.
