I saw this on theFashionspot. Besides black and white which colors look good on you or do you wear often?
I get a lot of compliments when I wear this deep plum t-shirt I have. I also like dark forest, kelly green, and emerald green. I find myself buying a lot of shirts and dresses in that color. I really like bright cherry red and fuchsia too.

I just recently started wearing colours again - I used to wear a LOT of black because it looked 'professional'.
Now I realize I can still look professional but without drowning in the all black clothing.
I get told I look fantastic in Red or Orange, Cobalt Blue, Turquoise/Aqua, Bright Pink, Purple, Peacock Green and Emerald. Pretty much nothing is off limits to me anymore... with the exception of certain buttery yellows and yellow toned greens and browns (make me look like death warmed over LOL).

I look best in cool reds, peaches, pinks, and black.
Not really a fan of blue or green.

I have always gotten compliments when I wore pink, but I found myself having a TON of it and I'm afraid it was making me look "childish" so i spread out to light blues and reds.

I actually rarely wear black espcially in warmer weather (which unfortunately is already here:( ) but I do wear a lot of white since it looks better than cream/off white on me. I also love deep blues, blue greens, deep saturated pinks, brown, olive green, teals, salmon pinks and some bright babyish blues and pinks.

I love wearing color, there really isn't a color I won't wear in some shade. It seems like I get the most compliments when I wear deep teals, purples or burgandies. I have this one Wedgewood blue sweater that always gets comments too, but I think that's just because it matches my eyes well.

I tend to wear lots of neutrals because they look good on me. White, black, beige, navy, gray, and brown are my wardrobe staples. I get compliments when I wear greenn (especially olive) and navy the most I think.

I wear A LOT of black, especially in the colder months, but I am trying to become more colorful, which is a lot easier to do with nice warm weather!
I look really nice in blues, especially brighter ones. Wearing blue really makes me blue eyes stand out.
I've also been told I look nice in red and pink

All blues, especially sky and tropical blues, pinks, black, peach, purple, corals, and white. My skin is super pale and these colors look really good.:cool:

I look the best by far in jewel tones and more vibrant colors. I don't really wear pastels since I am fair-skinned anyway. I get lots of compliments when I wear shades of blue since I have blue eyes and darker hair.

I love wearing various shades of green, blue and purple. I do love my neutrals though, so I wear a lot of white, off-white, beige, black, brown, and grey. I'm not big on red, orange or yellow (unless they're combined with other colors). I look really nice in teal and turquoise and get a lot of compliments whenever I wear those colors. Personally, I think I look the best in greens.

I got a lot of compliments when I wear this lavender/purple top, but normally I wear a lot of black, charcoal and brown (neutral). I'm into white lately.

Blue is my favorite color, so I have tons of clothes that are in a varied shade of blue. I think I can wear pretty much any color like pink, green, yellow (although I don't wear much yellow), red, purple, orange, coral, peach/apricot, etc.
And I never wore much colors until a couple of years ago. I was only into black, white, brown, and blue. My sister encouraged me to change my wardrobe, and now I wear tons of colors. And I used to hate pink with a passion. Now of course I wear pink although not a whole lot.

Corals, olive green, turquoise all look good on me IMO. I wear black daily for work & it actually does well for me too!

For me: royal blue, kelly green, and black.
I wear black most often, probably, because its easy :)

I bought a red-orange shirt this weekend I have to say that it looked really good on me. I guess I do like oranges and yellows, but mainly in the Spring and Summer.
