It could be that changelings retain their normal color scheme when transforming into a different creature, unless there's a specific creature they have in mind while transforming, which causes them to take on that creature's exact appearance.

Or it could be that changelings can have a great deal of control over their transformations, and Ocellus just chooses to retain her normal color scheme when transforming into a creature (without transforming into a particular individual), both because it's less work and to avoid confusing her friends.
