Just for fun - what's your "finds" color palette?

Mine is almost exclusively navy and white ... the exceptions being black shoes, a yellow pair of sneakers (which I have in navy, but the color featured on the site was yellow), and gray sneakers. I would say this is pretty reflective of my closet, too.

So there you go ... as my aunt used to say about my mom, "she's drawn to the navy like a moth to a flame". Clearly I'm my mother's daughter

What color palette do your finds reveal ... and is it reflected in you closet? Inquiring minds want to know!

Rainbow! This top (which is on its way to me) is pretty indicative of the colors More oranges than blues. Add a pile of white, too.

Closet mostly reflects this, though more neutrals in there right now than I'd like.

White, black, blue and red, with the odd earthy neutral it seems. Makes sense.

Lol ... this is good news. Our closets reflect what we love.

Interesting, mine is very neutral. Mostly black, gray, white and tan. I do like neutrals but my closet has quite a bit of color in it too.

Black, grey, blue, burgundy, shades of green, metallics, and a smattering of orange.

Mine is mostly warmer neutrals and black. Interesting to step back and look at it like that.

This is a very interesting question. Very little fuschia or grass green. A tiny amount of bright yellow here and there. Pine is under represented. Olive over represented. I see a lot of light blue, mint, pinks, black and white. Hits of red, grey, tans and taupes. A cobalt and orange every so often. A run of burgundy/oxblood. Many florals, few stripes. More navy than expected...

I stopped at page 52, lol. My overall impression is that bright and neon colour does not attract me...but strong colour is all right...

Great question. Orange, mustard, olive green, cognac and denim. There are some other colours but I am interested in the item but not in the colour shown.
I rarely collect patterns. I do like paisley pieces.
This is completely reflective of my closet except I have a lot of dark brown in my closet. Unfortunately I rarely see dark brown in retail these days.

My finds definitely echo my closet- light teal, Aqua, fuschia, mint, jade green, heather grey, charcoal, soft white, sky blue, periwinkle, coral pink, watermelon red, denim blue/light navy. Patterns that mix these colors.

The first page of my Finds shows a prevalence of white, along with black, soft grey, blue, and one pop of red. All those colors are well represented in my closet, although not in the same proportions as the Finds page. My closet has more blues and blacks and less white.

Fun question!

Rainbow and light neutrals. Hardly any prints. I was surprised to see quite a bit of tellow, citron, and greens and even some bright pink. Not much black, which is what I expected to see. Fun to see what I'm craving.

My finds list is in "shoes" color right now.........lots of black/nude/tan and a few other colors. I went a little wild and it's too long to easily browse so I'm not sure what the clothing colors are

My Fnds right now includes far more black than is typical for me. I'm looking specifically for a black top so that's why. There are also pops of yellow, which I don't wear but am attracted to. Otherwise it's my summer normal blues and whites with hits of fuchsia or orchid. In fall/ winter there is more navy, grey, burgundy etc. Who knows how it will change with my new hair?

Navy, chambray, olive, burgundy, gray and white with some black and cognac and pewter accents. I think this *mostly* reflects my closet right now but I'm hoping to add one or two brights - a hot pink top (the one Aida wore recently) is on it's way and I'd like to add a ruby top as well.

I've been building a wardrobe and have chosen black, white, and navy (ink) as my foundation. Before YLF, I had probably equal amounts of every color in the rainbow which made it hard to make outfits. I'm trying to stick with blues (faded and denim), reds (red/orange and true red), and some gray (haven't figured this one out yet), as my secondary accent colors. Other colors are slowly creeping in but I have to watch it or I'll be back where I started.

Interesting! Sorry I am not commenting on each but fun to see some branching out in their finds palette; perhaps a hint of things to come for them? And amazing to see other whose dream and real closets are so integrated.

My pinterest board is very similar to my finds ... pretty much all neutral, and restricted neutrals at that. Color choice in endlessly fascinating to me. Thanks everyone for joining the discussion!
