I'm pale with pink undertones and light blonde hair. I look good in all shades of blue, purple and in cooler-toned pinks. I don't look great in green or red, but I wear them anyway.

I wear a lot of fuchsia, purple (especially eggplant), and coral. I find those colors look the best with my blue eyes, light skin and dark hair. I generally stay away from green because it does not look good on me.
Pants? Blue. I wear pretty much only jeans in the pants arena. And colored jeans are my 11 year old self's nightmare so I stick with traditional blue.
Tops? I have a rainbow. Orange, yellow, green, black, pink, purple, white, gray. I have a few blue but since I wear jeans a lot, I try to avoid blues.
Sweaters/cardigans - I try to keep those neutral so I can wear them over top of any other shirt. Grays, whites, beiges, and blacks there. And then a green one and a purple one because it's nice to have fun sometimes!

I honestly can't help you lol. I am the queen of neutrals and I have zero problem with it. I've made myself buy things in the past to up the color and they end up in donation bags. All my tan, gray, and black things get worn regularly, so that's just what makes me happy I guess!
One of the few things I wear regularly is an red sweater, and my bright red Hunter boots. And I have a sweater with a big pink doughnut on it? ETA: it seems like red goes well with all my neutrals, maybe try it? Experiment with if you prefer a darker red, or bright red, or both on hand?
Black, obviously, and then a lot of greys and teals. Also blues and greens. I try to have a little bit of everything, but cool colors are my favorite.
I'm almost exactly the same as you. I wear all of those colors, and blues and teals are my favorites. I have a few burgundy and purple shirts as well, but mostly I stick with blue, grey, black, and green.

I also love gray, black, and tan as for neutrals.
I'm fair skinned but I can wear just about anything which is convenient. I just can't seem to get away from neutrals lol When I bought new work clothes, I made sure all my tops were bold colors but that's about all I have for color in my closet.

About 3/4 of my closet is black. I like dark grey also. I have some whites in there, but I tend to go through white tops faster since I can't seem to avoid stains. I use undershirts and tanks to add a little bit of color.
I need to live a little and start buying more colorful clothing.
July 2013 started TTC 7/20/2014=BFP; CP confirmed 8/1/2014 Dec 2014: Diagnosis = Unexplained IF 12/24/2014 Medicated TI (clomid)=BFN 1/22/2015: IUI #1 cancelled due to cyst 02/17/2015: IUI #2 cancelled due to another cyst 3/31/2015: IUI with Femera, 1 good follie, great sperm count = CP, my December Rainbow became an Angel
I have to wear business/business casual at work, so I have a lot of neutral (black and gray, mostly) dresses and skirts that I pair with jewel tones (lots of purple and blue/teal). I also love a pop of color with a yellow purse, but yellow clothes look terrible on me. I probably have 20 cardigans in a rainbow of colors. I find that adding color through accessories/cardigans is really easy and fun, and I can wear the same black dress way too frequently but no one notices bc they focus on the colorful part. My purses are also all bright - my three main purses in rotation now are bright yellow, kelly green, and orchid.
I am not a fan of myself in black or most neutrals, so my wardrobe is really really colorful. I wear a lot of pink, purple, navy, coral, and yellow. My go to outfit during this season is dark wash jeans, a really colorful pattered shirt, and a cardigan that coordinates. I think I wear some semblance of this outfit at least 4 times a week!

I am impressed with your ability to purse rotate. I have a Black and Tan purse because I am way too lazy to move all my shit from one bag to another just to mix it up.

Black and black and some more black. I'll throw in some pink dresses and navy or white suits over the summer, and some cobalt blue dresses and tops year round - this may be my 1 stereotypical NYer thing...
