In the new fashion season, light blue is recognized as one of the two most trendy colors of the upcoming fall 2016 according to the Pantone Color Institute. He called this shade "serenity". And this is no coincidence: pacifying, bringing harmony, calm and gentle, this color suits both women and men of all ages and allows you to complement yourself with various color combinations. At the same time, blue can be perfectly used by lovers of total look images. But not only serene blue can be interesting to use in the wardrobe. And gray, and azure, and cornflower blue, and baby blue are appropriate in the coming season.
With gray
The actual light blue shade looks very harmonious in combination with gray, only it should be either a bright shade of gray (graphite, "wet asph alt", steel), or a pastel, whitened version of it.
Combinationcolors "blue and gray" is the perfect strict and elegant pair for business style. It is perfectly complemented by accessories and shoes in white or beige shades or the shine of white metal.
With black
Blue paired with black looks pretty daring and appropriate for formal or formal wear.
Black and blue dress harmonizes well with both dark and light hair color. And for an evening out, it’s good to complement the outfit with gold or silver jewelry and accessories. This dramatic color combination with blue can also be used for a business dinner or reception by adding unexpectedly bright accessories - a violet-hued handbag or a red belt around the waist.
With green
Green and blue on the color wheel are located next to each other, so they are related in scale. The combination of colors "blue - green" has a calming effect on others, and also emphasizes femininity and makes the image light.
At the same time, this combination is rather cold, so it can be safely used for office clothes or business meetings. Women of a cold type of appearance look especially good in this range. You can complement this combination with light neutral shades - beige or white.
With red
Contrasting, bold, bright, even provocative combination of colors with blue. Bright scarlet shades, trendy tomato, and rich dark shades of red - marsala, wine, burgundy, raspberry, cherry are perfect for it.
Cold blue is successfully combined with the aggressive color of passion, and with well-chosen shades it is able to emphasize the noble features of the appearance of the person who has chosen them. To look stylish, you should remember the harmony of the color palette, mixing the "temperature" of the shades correctly. Classic cold blue goes well with crimson. A warmer azure tone calls for a scarlet shade of red. In this case, the blue color should be predominant, the background, and red should be an addition (especially good if these are some small parts or accessories), or vice versa.
With orange
These colors are considered complementary. Despite the obvious nobility, this combination is a bit free, rebellious, informal. Orange color is energetic, invigorating, so blue acts as a softening, ennobling shade. An almost classic color combination with blue, staunchly reminiscent of summer, sun, sea and sand, works well in beachwear and summer vacation clothes, but is successfully used in women's wardrobe in ethnic things or boho clothes.
Subject to correctly selected shades, it suits any color types (except for summer). Cold color types are in harmony with soft, as if dusty shades of orange, and blue should be predominant in the outfit. Warm color types are suitable for bright, saturated, juicy orange shades and bright blue, azure tone.
Brown
A pure blue hue is successfully shaded and complemented by various undertones of brown: terracotta, "camel hair", cocoa, "coffee with milk", "chocolate", beige.
This calm color combination with blue looks respectable. Warm color types can successfully look at warm brown tones: brick, cinnamon. Blue details will successfully complement the image. Cool color types are better off opting for blue in combination with taupe, sand or a cold shade of dark brown in combination with cornflower blue.
Such sets look great with light beige leather accessories. For example, it can be a belt or a bag of a suitable style.
With other shades of blue
A related combination of blue in clothes with shades of blue is indispensable in the wardrobe for cold color types "winter" and "summer". Blue together with blue look noble and strict. But so that these almost identical shades do not merge and do notthe outfit is too boring and calm, it is better to choose a third color for them - it can be either neutral (for a business and casual wardrobe), or bright, catchy, contrasting (for a festive or vacation exit), for example, red or neon pink.
Great combination of blue with cob alt shades, with classic denim.
With pink
The second main color of the year - the shade of "rose quartz" - cannot but be combined with the favorite, creating the most relevant duet of this fall. Combining tones in color blocking techniques or choosing fabrics with an ombre effect (soft transition of colors), you can look fashionable and gorgeous, creating naive and delicate looks on a romantic date or a walk around the city. But for a strict office atmosphere, such a combination is inappropriate.
If you don't like marshmallow pink, try combining blue with a bright hue - neon pink or fuchsia. The combination is very bold, but stylish. However, take a bright color as an accent, and blue as a base. Or add bright pink to pastel pink and blue.
With yellow
A wonderful joyful combination for summer and beach sets - bright yellow with soft azure. It looks good both top / bottom, and a combination of clothes of the same color with accessories of the second. This combination is young, attracts attention,looks bright and carefree, so it looks especially good on vacation and on holidays in the summer.
In everyday life, it is more appropriate to choose one shade brighter, and the other in a muted version. For the summer color type, cool blue with muted greenish-yellow is suitable.
White
The lightest and most delicate combination of colors, reminiscent of the sky with white clouds, snowy peaks and sea lagoons with white sand. Suits the "winter" color type with pale skin and dark hair.
The second cold type "summer" is better to dilute this duet with a more saturated shade, which will be the third in the combination, because with fair hair and pale skin, these two light shades can turn the image into a kind of faded spot. The combination of blue with other colors of the light spectrum is most appropriate in a summer wardrobe. But even in autumn, this soft, romantic and light combination can play up your natural beauty.
Of course, these are not all possible combinations of colors and shades. But one thing is clear from all of the above - the combination of blue with others in clothes is diverse and universal for any color type and different occasions and seasons.
