Just saw a really interesting piece deep diving into color theory’s impact on minimalist wardrobes that are mostly neutrals. It got me thinking way more about undertones than I ever have. Like, is my “perfect” beige actually clashing with my skin because it’s a cool-toned neutral while I’m warm-toned?
The article really emphasized how even in a restricted palette of blacks, whites, greys, and beiges, understanding complementary colors and shades can elevate a look. Instead of just throwing on a gray sweater and black pants, thinking about the specific shades of grey and black that actually work together harmonious creates a much more elegant overall impression.Has anyone else put this into practice? I’m curious if anyone has actually noticed a significant difference in how their neutral outfits look by paying closer attention to subtle color nuances within those neutrals. I’m tempted to reorganize my entire closet now!
