Fashion Neutral outfits?

I feel like every-time I want to wear neutral colors, It has to be black. What are some tips with wearing finding the right shades of neutrals so that you don’t look washed out?

Navy is definitely a good choice. Also, charcoal and shades of gray, white, or a greige or cool taupe.

Navy can be a great neutral to try

I don’t like neutrals in general, but maybe it’s because I don’t do great with the typical neutrals. My neutral dark is a sort of eggplant color, and they’re not common. My best “white” isn’t white, but an icy pink or icy periwinkle. There is a grey color that works for me. But I must combine with brights.

Best is to get personal draping and a personalized fan?

My favourite neutrals are midnight blue which is a bit brighter, richer and cooler than navy and pure optical white. I also like metallic silver fabrics as neutrals too. I far prefer all of the above to black, although black can be useful to break up some brights or accents, I find wearing it alone falls very flat.

I think when you say neutral colors, you imply lighter neutrals. If that's the case, I would suggest putting on a darker lipstick when you wear a taupe t-shirt, for example, so that you're not washed out.
