Intro to Creating Your Color Palette
In this section you get to decide what colors you’d like in your wardrobe. We use a “color palette” or “color scheme” to list specific colors you want to stick with.
When you shop, you will only buy clothes within the colors in your color palette. This ensures that all your clothes will mix and match effortlessly!
Your wardrobe plan uses an example color palette for the example pieces, but you can use your own colors to fit your style.
Important Advice: Don't let yourself get stuck on this step. Have fun with it, get a working plan, and know you can change it later!
Intro:
A color palette always has neutrals (like black, gray, brown, white). But it can also have pigmented colors like pink, blue, green, etc!
Using the easy steps below you can quickly piece together a working color palette to apply to your wardrobe moving forward!
