Hi, everyone!
So, I'm just curious - what colors does everyone here like to use the most?

You've got your classics and neutrals and then you have your super funky colors and then something in between!

I tend to avoid:
-hot pink as something I would carry as a bag, even though I think they're pretty. I just find it too common even though I haven't found a hot pink bag I thought was ugly. I think this is a really popular color among people. I love wearing hot pink in shirts and jewelry though! Just not for wallets or bags.

-White - just for staining reasons because I am a klutz at heart

-super bright reds

I love:
The Kate Spade colors of mulled wine, maroon, pebble, ivory clock, rosy down, black aand gold, mint, and mint mojito, and their light blues
 
I tend to stay "safe". My bags are brown (LV mono & DE), black and natural beige. Because all of my bags are "safe", my wallet is red. I love the pop of color. I can also find it quickly in my bags. I do think the pink bags & other colorful bags are very pretty. I just don't think they look good on me. I feel more comfortable a bit low key in color.
 
I really love the "offshore" navy color on my maise. The "Fresh air" color in stores now is also really pretty. Cool-tone and neutrals are my favorites

One thing I would say about Kate Spade colors is to be careful- different textures of bags with the same tone will look like different colors

That's cool! I have a small KS bag (unexpected my first legit handbag from KS) that is the navy offshore color. It's awesome and I like that it's not black (too common and many people have lots of it, including myself :P). I noticed that too, the texture of the bag really affects the color. They might call it a Dynasty red, but it really is closer to geranium.
 
I like to hve a classic black bag for the times my outfit is loud, I like the Kate spade yellows and kelly greens for bags, wallets I prefer the bright colors and patterns as well to spot it easier and it's a wallet, go crazy on the print is what I say!

I stay away from the coral, pink family, and red for bags
 
Looking at my KS collection, I either gravitate towards neutrals (white/cream and grey/taupe) or those in the pink/red family. I really want to explore different colors from her, though, like a green or purple... just haven't found the right style(s) yet! Would love some novelty bags, too.

I think I'm pretty open to any color, although I can't personally see myself being able to match a lime green or orange to my clothes. And I'm not a big fan of chartreuse, generally speaking.
