Combining colours in such a way so as to look attractive to the onlooker is an Art as well as Fashion. If you know just the right colors that enhance your skin tone, your sense of style, then you will certainly be looked upon as a person with a lot of personality. I'm sure you want to look polished and professional. If you want to look like a large marshmallow you could match yellow with baby blue and light pink shades, however, this would be a major fashion blunder.
The elementary principle to know which defines the use and combination of colors in the world of fashion design is the color wheel. You can do this in your house if you want. This will help you notice any contrasts in colors. For instance, if you put together neon green pants and a neon pink top, your eyes will automatically notice that the two hues are abnormal. This isn't a combination that most people expect.
When picking colors for your outfit, remember that gray, white, and black complement any ensemble. Colors like this are referred to as neutral. This combination works well for folks who enjoy psychedelic designs. Combining the three will give you a traditional look, so it is okay to mix them. It's versatile enough to coordinate with most any color. Gray colors look good with pink, blue, or beige. This list is endless. Additionally, it relies on the type of look you desire. If you are partial to lighter colors, opt for pastel. White and pink, beige, or yellow are some examples of such pairings.
If you want a swatch of colors you want to mix lights and darks. Go out of your element and create something a little more artsy by trying to match strong acid colors in a way that makes your dress look like it has three colors.
For instance, you may wear a fushia shift dress with a corset that is bright green in color, it will look great. When the weather is warmer - in the spring or summer - they are a sought-after choice. If you have a blue plaid dress you can make it no-nonsense looking by layering the dress with a gray slouch cardigan, than you can make the look more polished by wearing a white fedora hat with a blue ribbon on it and finish the outfit with black men's oxfords.
Corporate outfits, however, have more formal colors and styles. For example, take a pair of brown pants. You could go for a snappy look with a brown or gray belt or sash, or go for simple elegance with a brown or gray jacket or blazer. Combine the slacks with a ruffled white blouse to achieve a more casual look.
Taking in a day at the mall or going for a casual outing, you can't miss with beige belted shorts and a printed silk lantern sleeve blouse. Soft pastels make a blouse sexy while delivering a classy look. Light and airy colors that flow together easily and are just the right thing for summer seasonal wear.
Try on sevaral outfits before you go out to see how they look in your mirror. You will quickly realize if it doesn't appear as it should. You should look at fashion mags to find tips and ideas on color blocking. If you are wondering about your choice of colors for any project, experiment first and then ask for a friend's input.
