Ready to transform your closet? Let’s break it down step by step.
Step 1: Discover Your Colours
Your colour wardrobe starts with understanding what colours work best for you. It’s not just about what’s trendy; it’s about finding shades that enhance your natural features and make you feel unstoppable.
Skin Undertone: Are you warm, cool, or neutral? Warm tones suit earthy shades like gold, rust, and olive, while cool tones shine in icy blues, pinks, and purples.
Hair and Eye Colour: Your hair and eyes can guide your colour choices. Jewel tones like emerald and sapphire work wonders for darker features, while softer shades complement lighter ones.
How You Feel: Most importantly, wear colours that make you feel confident and happy.

Step 2: Audit Your Current Wardrobe
Before you can build your dream wardrobe, you need to take stock of what you already have. Pull everything out and sort it into three piles:
Keep: Items you love and wear often.
Maybe: Pieces you’re unsure about.
Donate or Sell: Clothes that don’t fit, don’t flatter, or don’t spark joy.
Now, take a look at your “keep” pile. What colours dominate? Are they aligned with your ideal palette?
Step 3: Fill the Gaps
With your colours in mind, it’s time to shop strategically. Build a wardrobe that’s versatile, cohesive, and reflective of your personality.
Start with Neutrals: Think black, white, navy, or beige – the foundation of your wardrobe.
Add Signature Colours: Choose 2–3 bold shades that make you feel amazing.
Incorporate Patterns and Textures: Stripes, florals, and animal prints are a great way to add personality without overloading on colour.

Step 4: Mix, Match, and Experiment
Once you’ve nailed your palette, it’s time to have fun. Play with colour combinations, mix patterns, and layer textures to create outfits that feel fresh and exciting.
Pair a bold top with neutral trousers for an effortless pop of colour.
Mix two bright shades for a striking, confident look.
Use accessories like scarves, shoes, and jewellery to add colour without commitment.

Regularly reviewing and decluttering your clothes.
Updating your wardrobe with new pieces that fit your palette.
Staying true to your colours, even when tempted by fast-fashion trends.
