Do you dress according to what color you like? I do. Sometimes , I would wear the same color on 3 consecutive days specially that since September we didn't have uniforms anymore. Most of my blouses are in blue and green. And I would always pair them with my blue jeans. And at my cabinet, I arrange them accordingly, like sleeveless according to color and so with those with sleeves. So sometimes in the morning, I would always choose the same color to wear for the office. What about you, do you sometimes wear the same color for your office or work wear, of course that’s aside from the office uniform? What is the color that is prevalent in your cabinet?

Really , you still love pink even if you have matured . I also love pink when I was younger. My daughter when she was a kid loves pink. But the moment she became a teenager she doesn't like pink for her to wear ever.

I like dark colors like navy, black, gray. But it all depends on my mood on what I want to wear :)

Yes, i don't like colors too that even when you are far, you can already be seen or it singles you out in a crowd. So it's dark blue for you. I like that too and all hues of blue actually.

Yes, we had it for a year , because it is always replaced by a new one every year. However , the management stopped it because they pay for it and we were trying to economize on our expenses for the office.

I love soft colors and black. In my cabinet you will find a lot of ivory, sand, peach, white, very light blue. Blue is not my favorite color and it looks terrible on me, another color I cannot wear is red.

@SIMPLYD Also my husband does not like blue. I have green eyes and fair skin, I look "sick" wearing blue. My niece is a "fashion consultant" she showed me the right colors combinations for my eyes, skin and hair. She has to wear more or less the same colors that I wear, she can wear blue, because she has dark hair.

That's nice to know. And i guess you like yellow too, as it is the color of your avatar. My daughter also don't like pink . But it was her favorite color when she was a kid until she went to high school though.

It is also true that color can affect our reactions to people and it is subtle yet very real. And colors do sway perception of people towards us.

I don't work anymore, but when I did, I was known as someone who never wore the same thing twice. I never wore a uniform. I'm confused. I thought you were retired.

Being a former model, I know you have a penchant for clothes, so that's understandable. Your office wear must be beautiful ones. No, I am not retired yet. I will be 60 in 3 more years, but still I don't want to retire yet when i reached 60.

@ridingbet Oh you are so lucky that you don't get those belly fats . Unlike you , i didn't use a girdle after giving birth to our daughter. I don't ever like to use a girdle . It seems i can't breath when i use one.

@SIMPLYD my colleagues who see me in t shirt sometimes ask me if i have those belly fats, but i show them i have little fats or none at all. maybe because i wore a girdle when i delivered, and when i had my operation in 2004? honest, no unwanted fats yet for me, but who knows, i might have it when i am stouter than the 50 kilos i am now.

I am not very choosy in what to wear. All the clothes i have in my closet are my choice, so i am comfortable wearing any. And yes, i can wear same color on consecutive days. In my cabinet, you will find shades of blue and shades of pink mostly :)

It only means that you have a skin tone that suits all color. So it's also blue for you, just like me. Pink, I stay away from that already since I am now older and for me pinks are for the younger ones.

@Gita17112016 Yes, the color should compliment the skin tone indeed. This also goes to our lipstick. I suppose you have a very fair complexion that's why almost all color suits you.

@SIMPLYD It has something to do with skin tones too. Those colors bring out my complexion. Actually I go for all colors..but the blue and green are my preferences. Soft shades are so relaxing,

Wow , so you are one of those whose favorite color is red. Red is one of the beautiful and attractive colors. A lot have red also as the color of their cars and it looks so nice indeed. Actually , I also like red though not on my clothes. I only wear a red color on my shirts if it is the theme of an activity.

My basic color choices are either black or blue for pants but I do like brighter colors for shirts/tops. Blue is pretty much my favorite color so I probably have more clothes in that color than any other

I can see that most of us here likes blue. Is it all shades of blue that you like? My jeans are all denim pants in blue or gray or black. I just wear stiletto to make my overall look corporate.

I must agree black is elegant indeed. I like black also during my early times in the company. I noticed though that it makes me look more matured. Blue is what fits my complexion.
