lol I had to laugh about red reminding you of Target. Purple, reminds me of the Salvation Army. You see, back in the day, before I became obscenely rich *cough* I used to hang around the Salvation Army. I swear to God, everything there was purple. I can hardly stand purple anything now even though it's a nice color.
I do love dark red though. I think I'm more of a cranberry, pomegranate, deep red kind of person, than burgundy. Perhaps my coloring is warmer than yours. I don't do really dark red, like liver-colored red, but anything lighter, that's darker than red-red, rings my bell.
I also love olive green. I have no idea why. People used to wear a lot of it when and where I was growing up. Norfolk, Virginia, is a military town, to say the least? And it was the 1970's so wearing fatigues was fashionable anyway.
My third favorite color is yellow. Strong yellow, not pastel. Then, I suppose, it's blue, black, brown, yadda yadda.
Sheesh. I've gotten so used to wearing casual clothes. The truth is, I don't want a job where you have to dress up. I know some people like it. I don't. I think it's mainly because I'm cheap. Hum.
I'm not much into the capsule wardrobe. It's odd...I can honestly say I'm a makeup minimalist now. But I'll never be a clothes minimalist. Well I abuse my clothes. I throw them into the washer along with the jeans and etc. Everything gets spin-dried. Hence, having more clothes to abuse, means they wear out more slowly and you need to shop less.
One thing I'm just dying for though. A jade pendant. I don't know exactly which kind yet. It has to be jade and it has to be gold, probably 14 karat (I never see jade pendants with anything higher). Green or white jade. I like the round ones with the Chinese character in the center. I know, everyone and their dog used to own one of these. What can I say? I like Chinese characters.
