For my personal color palette I already knew that it would be mostly neutrals. I think monochromatic palettes when done right are unbeatable. I think it is harder to wear less colors and have it look unique, polished, and ultimately better than everyone else trying to snatch some spotlight with a bright color or pattern. 

​

This isn't to say, however, that I'm not obsessed with color as well. I just choose to use color in smaller doses than other people... as a finishing touch. The addition of a rich, pure, burst of color to a monochromatic outfit or color palette makes everything stronger. For the base, I love to use either neutrals or natural colors like blue and green. Then, to add the pop, I go for warm colors like red, orange, and yellow.
