Discover the Secrets: 5 Unexpected Color Matches to Revolutionize Your Look
Fashion, my dear readers, can mimic the weather - it's unpredictable and can sometimes leave us feeling a bit, well, under the weather. So why not make a rainbow out of that unpredictability? Confused? Let me explain.
The Unconventional Color Matches You've Always Wanted to Try
Ever heard of the color rulebook in fashion? Well, I'm here to tell you that you can toss that book out the window (just be mindful of pedestrians below, won't you?). In the spirit of breaking rules, here are five unexpected color matches to inspire your next outfit.
1. Orange and Blue
As complementary colors on the color wheel, orange and blue make a bold, vivacious match. Think a cerulean blue dress paired with a fiery orange handbag.
2. Pink and Red
Ever hear the old saying 'Redheads can't wear pink'? Well, we're throwing that out with last season's fashion no-nos. A rose pink blouse with cherry red bottoms is a sweet, vibrant combo fit for making a statement.
3. Black and Navy
Another old-school fashion rule we're breaking - black with navy is a somber yet classy combination. They're both neutrals after all, why should they fight?
4. Brown and Gray
Another two neutrals that make a surprisingly stylish pair. Think slate grey trousers with a camel coat.
5. Green and Yellow
Channel nature with this bold, popping combination. A buttery yellow sundress with a green scarf or accessories will have heads turning your way.
Wrap Up and Paint the Town in Color
Throughout the history of the fashion world, colors and color theory have been a source of endless fascination and debate. Christian Dior once said, 'Color is what gives jewels their worth. They light up and enhance the face. Nothing is more elegant than a black skirt and sweater worn with a sparkling multi-stoned necklace.' So don't be afraid to experiment with color matches. Fashion, after all, is as much about personal expression as it is about clothing.
