Outfits Across the Week

Test in Color Lab

Five colors, endless possibilities. Select a color to copy its HEX.

A playful wardrobe-remix palette built from a warm weekly board, ink-blue type, dusty plum and rose outfit pieces, and a vivid cyan marker. It turns recombining familiar clothes into a clear, cheerful planning ritual.

The feeling

A cheerful weekly wardrobe board with soft textile pieces and a crisp cyan snap

The mood

Imagine paper-cut shirts, trousers, and jackets moving across a magnetic board from Monday to Sunday. Corkboard Tan gives the planner a warm, familiar base, while Closet Ink keeps day labels and garment notes orderly. Brushed Plum and Worn Rose feel like related fabrics rather than a rainbow of unrelated swatches, and Snap Cyan marks the piece currently being tried.

The result feels playful through shape and movement while staying grounded enough for a repeat-use wardrobe app. Each color behaves like part of the board: surface, label, textile, or magnetic marker.

How to use it

Use Corkboard Tan across the weekly planning surface and Closet Ink for headings, body copy, garment names, and navigation. Brushed Plum can fill outfit cards and folded-paper panels with Closet Ink text. Reserve Worn Rose for garment silhouettes, category chips, and large short labels; use Snap Cyan for the active day, drag target, selection ring, and small magnetic tabs.

Begin with a 52/36/12 balance across the tan background, plum primary panels, and cyan highlight. Treat rose and ink as supporting roles outside that ratio. Pair every color-coded garment state with a name, icon, or border so the weekly plan remains understandable without color.

What to watch

Closet Ink on Corkboard Tan measures about 7.57:1, on Brushed Plum 4.71:1, and on Snap Cyan 5.55:1, so those pairs support normal-size text. Closet Ink on Worn Rose is about 4.32:1: it passes the 3:1 large-text threshold but fails the 4.5:1 normal-text threshold. Keep small garment details on tan or plum panels, and use rose only for large labels or decorative shapes beside readable text.

The three softer surfaces have low contrast with one another, so do not place plum, rose, or tan text on each other. Cyan should signal the current interaction rather than become another broad fabric field. A thin ink outline around movable clothing pieces also preserves their edges when plum or rose overlaps the warm board.

A considered balance

Make room for
the right colors.

Use Corkboard Tan for the weekly planning canvas, Closet Ink for all essential copy, Brushed Plum for readable outfit cards, Worn Rose for garment silhouettes and large short labels, and Snap Cyan for the active day, drag targets, selection rings, and magnetic tabs. Add ink outlines, icons, and written day or garment labels to every interactive state.

Start with a generous background, introduce your primary color, then use the highlight sparingly. The ratios are a guide for large surfaces, not a fixed recipe.

Text on accent
4.32:1 #172A3A on #B77C78 · AA large text only

Best available text on accent

The original text has low contrast (4.32:1). This example shows the strongest available pair: Closet Ink (#172A3A) on #B77C78 at 4.32:1. It still falls below 4.5:1 for normal text. Use a different background to meet that contrast requirement.

Contrast is calculated for these specific pairs. Large text means at least 24 px regular or about 18.7 px bold. Check every pairing in your final design.

COLOR NOTE

Closet Ink on Worn Rose measures about 4.32:1 and fails the 4.5:1 normal-text threshold, although it supports large text at 3:1. Keep small copy on Corkboard Tan, Brushed Plum, or Snap Cyan instead. Do not use plum, rose, tan, or cyan against one another for text, and never communicate selection or outfit status through color alone.

Text/background contrast: 7.57:1. This is one measured pair, not a guarantee for the whole palette. Check every actual text/background pairing against WCAG AA. Prefer readable combinations from the original colors, keep visible keyboard focus, and never communicate state through color alone. If no original pairing meets the requirement, propose a separately labeled derived color with its original HEX, proposed HEX, purpose and measured contrast. Never overwrite the source palette.

This guide preserves the original HEX values. Review the output before using it.
