    Men’s color palettes are awful. I can’t count the number of times I’ve read menswear advice that tells readers to wear colors from nature, and then pretends that flowers, sunsets, and rainbows don’t exist.

    Colors are good I like colors.

      Looking out of the board room window: see grey parking lots, black railings, white cars, a single patch of green and brown trees, all under a hazy, pale blue sky.

      Board members turn to each other: “Yes, these are nature colors.”

        And then they forget to look at other perspectives:

        a red dawn,
        the orange rise, the yellow light,
        a green grass
        bluish water and sky
        purple flowers

        white clouds and black panthers

        nature is so much more colourful and unique than one might expect, and that’s the beauty of it.

      Anytime someone says “do X from nature” they generally have little knowledge of what nature has.
