That reminds me of the set of dishes my DH had when he was a bachelor. They were given to him by a friend who got them as a wedding gift, but had more dishes than they knew what to do with. They were a horrible pink, and I commented to the friend how he could have ever had a set of pink dishes. "They're not pink," he'd say. "They're salmon!" Regardless, they went to Salvation Army when we got married!

My DH wears khaki (sp?) pants 99% of the time (blue the other 1%) and some shade of blue, olive, or maroon LLBean polo (he has a large collection of them). His bike duds are invariabley the LBS kit - so the colors are not garish - blue, yellow, pink, whatever - but the design is off the wall. "Shards of metal" daggers that look like flames.
