Does anyone else own a lot of things in the same colours?

I realised this week that most of my clothes are different shades of blues.
And looking at what my favourite brands offer, they do seem to have the same colour palette every season. Mostly blue, and somr teal, grey, white/cream with a few yellow and pink things.

Blue really suits me but it's getting a bit boring to choose between a blue top and another blue top every morning...

No, i have loads of coloured things. Mostly in the colours i think i suit. My wardrobe consists of black, blue, red, denim, pink, purple, teal, lovely emerald green..
Up to this point i didnt have anything in orange until i bought a dress from toast in a burnt orange colour that just looks brilliant with a tan!
Infact, the only colours i dont possess anything in is yellow or anything that has a yellowish tinge like olive colours or lime because i am sallow and wouldnt get on with it.

My favourite colour is navy blue.
Always elegant, always classically in fashion.
Vary with red, grey, white, cream.
I have some black and beige things, but need to be in the mood to wear them.

I organised my wardrobe by colour not so long ago. By far the largest section was blue - all shades from navy to ice blue, with sapphire and electric blue as popular shades. Of the other neutrals i have some black, white and grey. I also have yellow, red, purple, and a smattering of emerald green and chocolate.

I quite often wear different shades of blue, or blue with lemon yellow or blue with purple or blue with white.

Grey (mostly pale), blue, white, navy. One or 2 bits of black. Bit of pink. But of blush, which I love on me but don't seem to find v often.

Every conceivable shade of turquoise, the odd bit of coral and tomato red.

I had mainly black blue and purple before having my colours done. Its now loads more colourful, yellow/ green/ orange/ red/ brown in various shades and patterns. I like it more now and never buy black now, not even shoes or bags.

I don't often buy black. I have one dress, a suit and a jumper in black. I find it complicates my wardrobe as I have to have different shoes, tights etc.

Mainly black, some white, and stripes (black/white).
