What Two Colors Are You LEAST Likely To Wear?

It's not the colour itself that puts me off, I do, after all, have yellow shirts, even a pair of yellow trousers. But in the case of the latter, they are not bright banana yellow, more of a faded lemon colour. It's how the colour is displayed that puts me off.

I have a number of formal dinner jackets, (tuxedos) two are black, one has long tails. The other one is an ivory colour which I wear black trousers with. What I couldn't wear is something like these two jackets.

I agree, those jackets are way too out there. You dress wonderfully, Horseless, no need to even think about changing-up your ways. :)

Here are two examples of well-dressed gentleman. No need for exuberant colour, the outfits say it all, they ooze class and style, and IMO, the crowning glory is the men's fedoras.

There's just something about a man that wears a fedora. It truly separates the men from the boys.

Horseless. Your post this morning has me thinking all things men and dress this morning.

Here is another fitting example of style and class, and unlike the gentleman on the right in my last entry, who looks likes he just pulled himself out of a three day stupor in some back alley somewhere and got dressed up in the attire he did (without a shave), the gentleman in this picture is clean and fresh looking, the way it should be when a man dresses up.

Only thing lacking is a fedora.

I don't like black near my face. I wear black trousers and skirts, but don't possess any black tops. Yellow doesn't suit me either.

Marg you are so generous, and so too are many others on this forum. Thank you so much for your kind comments.
There are not that many colours, or styles, that I dislike, as long as they are of a standard some might call, traditional.

I love white blouses! I would wear a white blouse anywhere, anytime- if there was someplace to go.

Plain and tailored or semi-frilly; classic lace collar, long sleeved- any quality white blouse. Usually black slacks or dark wash blue jeans.

I only have one pair of patterned yoga pants; black and white.

I love wearing black, purple, yellow, aqua, red; almost any color.
 
Expanding on my white aversion, our water is hard and nothing stays pristine white after 3 or 4 washing. White shirts look dismal. With colours, I can fake it.

The colour that I’d prefer to have for t-shirts is cream or beige. Impossible to find.

Adding, a crisp white shirt & blue jeans look fantastic on many. Bet you look great in them RR.
