Mine are stripes and Longchamp le Plaige bags.

Green. I have red hair and amber eyes, I haven't met a shade of green (barring neon because it's vile) that doesn't suit me. I wear it almost every day I'm not in work (where I am in uniform, though often still with green hair accessories)

Mercurial123 · 26/02/2023 17:25

I've loved stripey tops since I was 18 and wide legged trousers in my 20's. I'm now 51.

Purple eyeshadow!

Fair Isle and Shetland wool jumpers!

wellpaddedintherear · 26/02/2023 17:27

Red-it just really suits me
50’s style dresses
silver jewellery-I don’t suit gold
clashing colours-red and purple or purple and green etc-I’m known for putting ‘odd’ colours together

I'm very fickle so I might have to drip feed. But I'll start with tweed, and 1940s suit jackets.

Willowtre1 · 26/02/2023 17:31

Probably animal print. And chunky fisherman style jumpers. Shirts under jumpers.

CatNamedEaster · 26/02/2023 17:33

Pintucks, pleats, embroidery, especially if it's subtle. I love seeing the work that goes into something even when it's a tiny detail.

Penguinsaregreat · 26/02/2023 17:39

Dresses.
I have to consciously make an effort to wear anything else.
I buy dresses when I see one I like. I don’t ever have to buy one for a specific occasion as I have so many.

coconotgrove · 26/02/2023 17:40

in no particular order -

navy
(swiss) polka dots
double denim
silver and/or white footwear
Old Céline

Proper tailoring that really fits. I never wear this kind of clothing except on special occasions but I have one or two evening dresses that fit like a glove and make me go ooooh when I put them on. The 1940s and 1950s would have been right up my street clothing wise.

Cashmere.

Bazookapie · 26/02/2023 17:42

Animal print - pumps, tops, scarves
Stripes - to the point where I have now banned myself from buying any more

Mercurial123 · 26/02/2023 17:45

Also, Issey Miyake Pleats Please clothing. Expensive but I live in a hot country so wear it all the time. Have had items for years, it's indestructible and never needs ironing. It's great for travelling.

Marghe87 · 26/02/2023 17:51

Big cosy jumpers and red lipsticks :)

DinosaurOfFire · 26/02/2023 18:00

My main ones are coloured eyeshadow (greens/ purples/ blues), brightly coloured clothing, summer dresses, knee high flat boots and flared jeans- not all at the same time! I like fun clothing that makes me smile and feels comfy.

SkintyFia · 26/02/2023 18:01

Black!

Pearlsister · 26/02/2023 18:03

I love texture and embroidery. I love velvet, silk, cotton and cashmere. If it's got embroidery on it so much the better. I also love colour. Beige and grey is so depressing. There's nothing better than putting beautiful colours together.

Milkasheika · 26/02/2023 18:06

broderie anglaise anything

grayhairdontcare · 26/02/2023 18:08

Dresses. All types of dresses.
I wear nothing but dresses

Agree purple and green are a great combination.

AnyFucker · 26/02/2023 18:11

Jumpsuits
Sludge colours
White slouchy vests/t shirts
Birkenstocks

Netcam · 26/02/2023 18:11

I love natural fabrics, wool, cashmere, silk. My wardrobe is probably 90% merino.

onlythesparrow · 26/02/2023 18:13

Wrap dresses. Either not too low cut, or with a cami underneath. Ideally just below knee length.

Magpiecomplex · 26/02/2023 18:14

Footwear, specifically boots. I have to stop myself from buying any more as I've run out of space!

wendywoopywoo222 · 26/02/2023 18:15

I own a lot of purple boots and wear a lot of purple in varying shades, usually matched with lime green or turquoise.
