Jen,
I found in drab mode the only way to make a colour statement was with my tie , I had some great ones . Sadly very few wear ties anymore .
I recall my late teens and early twenties of having pink striped shirts and salmon pink sweaters .
I think we do tend to play safe in femme mode , I'm still drawn to shades of blue . Red is the colour that takes some wearing , obviously I'm talking from going out in the RW , if you're in the closet then it realy doesn't matter what colours you choose .
As you can see from my avatar I've gone for sequins at the moment , obviously for evening wear . For day wear I like having a range of Tshirts especially in the warmer weather , you can make just the right colour splash . I tend not to use jewellery to make a colour statement , I have a range of silver and gold necklaces that I use more for background .
