Colour Picker Tool Tips

Here are 6 ways to use Colourcat's colour picker.


The colour picker tool can be used in two ways, either to shop colour first or to filter products on category pages. 

This short guide highlights the best ways to make the most of this tool.  

1. Use it for inspiration

The colour picker is a great place to start for clothing inspiration. Click through different colours and notice which ones you're naturally drawn to. You might spot shades you already wear often, as well as colours you feel excited to try. Using the tool this way can help you understand your personal style. 

Remember to save your favourite colours using the heart button so you can come back to them later.

2. Shop your favourites

When in a product category, the colour picker tool makes it quick and easy to refine your search to the exact colours you like. No more broad colour filters where you have to scroll endlessly to find the colours you are looking for. 

3. Match what you already own

The colour tool is also useful for finding pieces that work with items already in your wardrobe. Whether you want a similar shade or a complementary colour, it can help you get more wear out of the clothes you already love. 

4. Occasions

Sometimes an outfit search starts with an invitation for event that includes a dress code with a colour theme. The colour picker helps you quickly find pieces in the exact colours you need, making occasion dressing feel less stressful. 

5. Shop inspiration images

Seen an outfit you love on Pinterest or Tiktok? Use the colour picker to find items in similar colours so you can recreate the look in your own way. 

6. Build a capsule wardrobe 

The colour picker is a helpful tool for building a wardrobe around colours that work well together, making it easier to create cohesive outfits. Create your palettes through saving these colours using the heart button.
