I'm lucky enough to be able to wear a pretty wide variety of colors, but yellow is the major exception. I *might* be able to pull off that pale gold without looking horrible, but it would definitely be suboptimal.

(I wince whenever I reread Pat of Silver Bush or Mistress Pat and Montgomery talks about how she looks like a 'paler and browner' (???) in green, but flower in yellow - Pat has more or less my coloring. But then those books make me wince for a lot of reasons. Don't know why I do reread them.)
