Answer 1

Brown and blue work well together. Dark grey and anything.

Answer 2

Telling you the colours won't always jive (tell you the answers) you must really see the shades to know what is going on. The shades of the colors may shock you as greater than you think only when you put them together. Certain colours with the same intensity do go togther like a bright pink with a bright blue squares or flowers. The arrangements of the patterns are so important. My advise is to go to the mall and see the maniquins, they are almost always well dressed. Take some pictures and check them on your computer. Also there are some new SEARs magazins and Canadian Tire check them out. You can also watch the show Elsa or other related TV clothes shows. You will get endless ideas and you will end up looking like one smartly dressed cookie. Good luck.

Answer 3

You can put any colors together as long as you keep the color scheme throughout your outfit. Such as a yellow sweater with a royal blue belt, royal blue shoes, and a royal blue bag. I love putting two colors together that don't match. I've worn things like lime green and yellow, brown and a rich red, orange and green, lavendar and pink.... I love bright colors.

Answer 4

Look up on the internet a color wheel. Find the color you are wanting to match. You can do one of two things. The colors that surround the color on the wheel are complimentary colors. The color oposite the color on the wheel is also a complimentary color. It's the best way to know for sure what colors are complimentary to each other. Now, not every color clothing is going to be on the wheel. In that case, ask someone's opinion if you can, if not, what does your gut tell you?

Good luck!

Answer 5

Get a design book or fashin/style book and go from there. Also, buy the cards that you use to pick a color to paint a wall in your house and use them as your guide to success.

I wish I knew you personally cuz I am a geek for fashion and all those color matchy matchy type things. I 'd hook u up.

ALSO, DON'T FORGET THAT YOUR SKIN COLOR/TONE PLAYS A BIG PART IN THE COLORS THAT YOU CAN WEAR. YOU DON'T WANT TO LOOK WASHED OUT OR DRAINED.

Happy Hunting!!!

Answer 6

I always try to pair color with neutrals.

For example, if I wear a navy top, I might wear khaki bottoms.
If I wear red, pink or purple, I put it with black
If I wear green, yellow, or light blue, I put it with brown.

If you wear brightly colored bottoms, wear a white or black shirt.
If you wear brightly colored tops, pair with jeans, black, brown, white or khaki pants.

If their are gold tones in your outfit, they pair better with brown, while silver tones pair better with black.

Hope this helps.

Answer 7

blue and yellow match grey and pink green matches with a soft blue try these out and see if u like the way they look

Answer 8

Pretty much anything can go together. I believe that black and navy blue do NOT go together, neither do brown and black. I prefer not to wear white and cacki(sp) but in some situations they go together too.

Answer 9

We can't tell you all the colors that go well together. I would get a magazine and check out the coordinated colors that work well and that you like together.

Answer 10

olive green tank with brown overshirt and a aqua/ turquoise beaded necklace with your fave jeans and a pair of aqua espadrilles around 31/2 inches tall and a brown hobo bag and huge hoop earings and a pretty oversized brown bangles and match that with a pair of oversized shades and youll be styling.
