Master Colour Matching: Unlock the power of colour coordination!
Ready for a fashion reality check? You might be playing it a bit safe when it comes to colour. Combining colours is a natural part of everyday life, bringing harmony and balance to your outfits. Don't limit your wardrobe to a few colours when there's a whole rainbow of gorgeous shades waiting to be added!
Ever wondered what colours work well together? You're not alone. Colour matching can seem like a bit of a mystery, but it doesn't have to be. We've got the solutions to all your colour challenges. So, buckle up – there's a world of colour out there, and it's time to explore it!
Start with Neutral Basics
Black, white, brown, beige, and grey – the ultimate wardrobe staples for any woman! These classic neutrals are like magic – they blend seamlessly with literally any other colour under the sun. Think of them as your trusted foundation - your go to guide for effortlessly building any look. And they even handle those bold statement shades, like chartreuse, with ease. What's not to love? Let's take a closer look at how we can use these versatile neutrals to create some seriously stylish outfits.
Navy Blue and Who?
Ever wondered what colours pair beautifully with navy blue? For a modern twist, try colour-blocking to make a statement. A navy A-line dress with bold orange strappy heels? That's fresh and fun! Navy blue is almost like a neutral, similar to black but with a cooler, more laid back vibe. So, when it comes to pairing colours, these two are a match made in heaven. Just remember, super dark navy can sometimes clash with true black. The key is to make sure they're different shades. Add some texture and luxurious fabrics like silk to give your look extra depth and dimension. And forget that old rule about never pairing navy and black – it's time to break free!
Pastels and Brights
When it comes to adding a pop of colour to your wardrobe, pastels and brights are the usual suspects. They're the go-to choices for making an outfit really stand out. But let's be honest, those vibrant hues can be a bit tricky to work with. Too much neon can be overwhelming, and head-to-toe pastels might wash you out. It's all about finding that perfect balance, and we're here to guide you to colour harmony!
Shades of Purple and Grey
Struggling to find the perfect match for purple? Look no further than the versatile world of grey! Lavender and light grey are a match made in heaven – it's a sophisticated and calming combo that's oh-so-chic. Think a sleek sheath dress with lavender sling backs – instant fashionista vibes! For a touch of sparkle, add some silver jewellery.
Want your outfits to make a statement? Say goodbye to subtle and hello to bold ensembles with grape purple and darker greys like charcoal or pewter. The deeper grey acts as a neutral base, letting the vibrant purple shine. It's a winning combination that's sure to turn heads!
Teal and Blue
Feeling stumped when it comes to pairing teal green? Look to Mother Nature for inspiration! Green and blue are a natural match, just like the lush trees and clear skies we see every day. Teal green and shades of blue are a winning combination, rain or shine. Think a teal jogger and sweatshirt set with a pop of midnight or cyan blue – fresh and vibrant!
When working with jewel tones, don't be afraid to embrace a head-to-toe look. Tonal outfits are totally on-trend! Try a light aquamarine blouse tucked into teal trousers – it's a stylish and chic choice. And remember, proportions are key! Go long on top or bottom, but not both. Not sure what we mean? If you're wearing high-waisted trousers, tuck in your blouse to accentuate your waist. This is especially important for petite frames. Voilà – you've mastered tonal dressing like a pro!
Emerald and Metallics
Attention all our red-haired, fair-skinned, freckled beauties! Emerald green is a universally flattering colour, but it truly shines on those with a touch of red or auburn hair. This jewel tone has a regal, vibrant energy that makes you feel like you could rule a kingdom!
To let emerald green take centre stage, pair it with black or cream – simple yet stunning. Want to add a touch of magic? Metallic accents work wonders. Think a gold camisole peeking out from under a buttoned emerald blazer, black jeans or slacks, and chunky heeled booties. Don't forget your crown, queen!
