Bright orange. That’s pretty much it.

Mine would be Mustard-Yellow, I just don’t like the colour.

Although, I did buy a checkered shirt in that colour last year and I love it.

I don’t want to look like a traffic cone. Also bright yellow. I have a gold shirt, but I wouldn’t wear anything highlighter color.

That’s completely fair.

I would say orange too, it’s just not a pretty colour, but like on King’s day basically everyone here wears orange and the colour of for example our national soccer team is orange so I actually do wear it on certain occasions :joy:

Neon yellow/green/pink like on safety vests, gold (clothes) or anything that blends with my skin

I usually avoid color combinations more than colors though

That’s fair. I would probably agree with you and @Ouijaloveletters with orange, I don’t think I have any orange in my wardrobe.

Was it by choice or was it something your parents/guardians dressed you in?

Both once I had told them I loved pink they had got me pink everything.

Ah, that makes sense

Clashing colors, like red and yellow, red and green. Or colors that are too similar, like blue and green, red and orange. I also try not to make my outfits too flashy, if I’m wearing a bright shirt my pants have to even it out. And I don’t go over 3 different colors (+black and white)

That really specific shade of blue that you always see on ‘classic’ styled dresses. Its almost fluorescent and its horrible.

I guess like…. A yellow green color…?

Umm, not necessarily, but that’s close to the idea of what I was saying I just didn’t know how to say it.

All these orange haters on the premises :sob: Understandable, but I’m an orange defender 'til the day I die [move on to my next favourite colour].

Yellow and pink are my avoided colours; they just really don’t suit me, and I don’t feel comfortable wearing them outside. I don’t mind wearing them on t shirt graphics etc, though. Outside of those two, I wouldn’t say I avoid particular colours as opposed to shades. But I am very picky about shades.

I also avoid colour combos I associate heavily with other things, like green and red being christmassy. That being said I do love a purple-orange combo, and that’s incredibly halloweeny. Halloween colours are just cool (minus green and orange I don’t like that one).
