Colour Matching

Expecto_Patronum

I'm not sure whether this is an autism thing or just a me thing but I've recently realised I really struggle to know whether colours go together or not. It's starting to really restrict what I wear as I tend to stick to things like grey, dark blue and black which largely go with anything. I recently bought a purpley coat which I really love but I struggle to know what I can wear it with as I don't know what other colours it goes with. How can people just tell what goes together and why can't I? Anyone else struggle with this?

  • I don't think it is an autism thing. I am the opposite. I have to check if a top goes with trousers and can't wear things that don't go. I often have to reject two pale colours together. It is the same with socks. I tend to match them with my top, so I have some greys browns, blacks for when nothing goes. As others have said if you stick to black, brown, grey trousers then it is easier to find something that goes.

    I wear a lot of block colour or shades of the same colour, one of my friends was amazed that my socks matched my top and trousers and they were all green, not black of navy.

    I'm really unsure about brown for summer, so many clothes shops have a load of brown tops, shorts and dresses, I think brown's more of an autumn/winter colour.
