I have a few blue things lol
I wear too much blue and can't stop buying it
Most blues are so good, it's a shame most people stick to just navy because it's by far one of the worst shades
drippy...
I would love more clothes in this color
i wonder if thats stretching the boundary of "blue" though
Nah, I've been trying to explore blue-adjacent colors like teal and purple.
looks like a yummy sweater color
I wear a lot of denim and denim adjacent things so... Yeah I've got a lot of blue
It’s a safe color
Blue carries so much weight due to it being the least volatile of the three primary colours. Its safety lies within its contrast to red's passion or yellow's brightness, and as such, it has more opportunities to display itself across different outfits in various permutations. It can be made subtle, loud, dark, light, dulled, potent. It can be the Carolina blue that represents Michael Jordan's pre-NBA comeup or the indigo dye faded over decades on a pair of worked through denim.
Bad color
Stinky
☹️
Good color
Pretty
This fit went into my inspo folder immediately after ya posted it haha
I love blue and I have to make a concerted effort to not just buy shit that’s blue
suprisingly i don't have any blues in my wardrobe lmao
i think i've been slowly drifting to wanting a more pastel palette though that technically still includes blue
I have to stop myself from buying blue items of clothing. I just harmonize with it so well.
Blue’s alright, but not as cool as black.
I respectfully disagree.
So so so true
Blue is nice because it's a color but it's also neutral, somehow. So it sort of serves a double purpose in a fit
Good color
Oh man blue.
I keep telling myself I need to buy a coat or jacket in a colour that isn't blue.
But then I go on eBay/TradeMe and sort by "blue" lmao
Blue is my favorite color, and all my clothing is either neutral or some shade of blue. I’m trying to branch out to other colors, but then I see a pretty blue shirt and I have to have it
I look over at my wardrobe and in terms of outerwear, 3/6 pieces are blue and navy. I still want a navy blue Teba too. Why is blue so good? Damn.
I have so many blues. Jeans, navy chinos, denim shirts, chambray, blue alpha shirts, blue linen shirts, blue short sleeve pattern shirts, indigo Sashiko shirt, indigo Sashiko shoes, navy suit, navy sport coat, medium blue suit, blue plaid sport coat, blue OCBD, blue flannel shirts.
Outerwear probably has the least blue for me
Purple is great. I need a purple shirt polo or turtleneck. Blurples are also fantastic combining the best of both adjacent colours
Most of my blues are denim, anything else i kinda struggle to wear
Though blue is my default ocbd color cause i sweat through white too easy
