Are You Stuck in a Color Rut?

Take a look inside your closet right now. What’s the dominant color?

Is it black?
Is it a shade you find dull or uninspiring?

Here’s why this happens.

Stores stock black because it’s easy to sell.
⚫ It goes with everything.
⚫ It’s slimming.
⚫ It’s a powerful color.
⚫ It doesn’t show dirt

Retailers know black is safe, and so they carry a LOT of it.

But let’s say you’re looking for a lavender blouse.
You know the color.
You know the style.
But finding both?
It’s like searching for a needle in a haystack.

Frustrating, right?

But here’s the thing! 

You can have a wardrobe that’s full of colors you love, in styles that fit and flatter you.

You just need to shift how you shop.

Many people stay in a rut because they don’t have the time or energy to find brands that carry better color options in the styles they want.

Here’s a simple strategy:

1️⃣ Choose a base color that works well for.  2️⃣Decide on 3-4 additional colors that complement it.

For example, if you want more purple in your wardrobe:
🟣 It pairs beautifully with black, navy, gray, white, or cream for a classic look.
🟣 Want something bolder? Try mustard yellow for an unexpected, stylish contrast.

The key is having a plan.

Without one, you’ll keep picking colors that clash, limiting your wardrobe options.

Colors have power. The right combinations create a vibe that feels polished, intentional, and uniquely you.

Your closet is FULL of potential.

Unless you take the time to evaluate what works and what doesn’t in your wardrobe, you’ll continue to accumulate clothes without feeling like you have anything suitable to wear.
