    I am using the Expose theme for my site: http://www.groomedgentleman.com and would love to be able to use a color other than the default colors offered. I tried searching through the appearance-> edit function and then also by using the inspecting element onpage.

    Can someone point me in the right direction as to how to go about this? Also, I wouldn't mind changing the color of the text so that it pops off of the other color I choose.

    Thanks.

    On line 158 of your child themes style.css file you'll find this code:

    body {
    color: #000;
    font-family: 'Lato', sans-serif;
    font-size: 16px;
    font-size: 1.6rem;
    font-weight: 300;
    line-height: 1.625;
    }
    

    You can change the hex code color.
