PSA

avoid conforming to traditional gender norms by avoiding this common palette:

A chart split into two sections. The right is labeled "Girl colors" with pink, red, and purple swatches. The left is labeled "Boy colors" with blue swatches.

try using these palettes instead!!

A chart split into two sections. The right is labeled "Girl colors" with dark red, olive, jade, teal, cerulean, and fuchsia swatches. The left is labeled "Boy colors" with dark bronze, yellow, gray, indigo, purple, and violet swatches.

Not to be mean but they’re right. None of these would ever fit together

They’re DISGUSTING, op. I’m sorry, it’s better you hear it here than have your grandma say she likes your clothes.

i actually disagree! not to bring back a certain children's hospital and say "it's literally color theory" unironically, but... it's literally color theory. both of these color palettes are virtually complimentary and look pretty nice together

youve got reds, greens, and blues:

and purples, blues, yellows, and oranges:

(you'll have to click on the images to see the full thing, i don't want to put them one after the other and make this post even longer than it already is. sorry for the low resolution im doing this on my phone)

of course there's variation in the values and saturation, but imo that's a bit of a given ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

wait actually fuck this post. what the hell is going on between you two

not to re-rail a post that OP himself intentionally derailed but I wanted to try out the palettes. The first one is made with the Girl Colors with no changes made to the values/saturation.

i think its ok.

The second one I tweaked the saturation and values a to my liking. Both are very low effort but as you can see I kinda got into the second one. Anyway I really like orange/purple/yellow as a color scheme so I had fun with this
