i am a straight guy whose closet is full of neutrals and frankly i am sick of it so i was trying to update it and this website is the best help i found yet. the two sources i found useless were the “men’s clothes guides”, they expect me to wear suits all the time, no way. i am a creative person, my wardrobe needs to reflect this. also the “season color guides”, either i don’t understand it or my skin tone doesn’t fall into their theory. so once again thank you for the fashion 101 and the “clothes color wheel”!
