How to Wear Different Colours Together

There’s a simple formula… and that formula just happens to be The Colour Wheel!

And today, I’ve applied this to your wardrobe! 👗

So, let’s get started!

1 How to wear Analogue Colours!

Look 2 How to wear Complimentary Colours!

Pick a colour from the Colour Wheel that you like. Now go to the exact opposite side of the wheel – that’s your Complementary Colour! 

Complementary colours are the opposites, and though you might think they would clash, they set each other off very nicely! ✨

For example, orange and blue look great teamed together – even black and white are opposites, which is why they always work.

The same principle applies with your eye makeup! 👁

So, to bring out the green intensity in green eyes, for example, you want to wear an eyeshadow that’s the exact opposite on the colour wheel – so stick to purple, browns or mauves! 💁‍♀️

Look 3 How to wear Triad Colours!

Now picture a triangle 🔺

Imagine the centre of the triangle is in the middle of your colour wheel – where the three points of the triangle touch will be your Triad Colours.

By moving the triangle clockwise or anti-clockwise, you'll get three more Triad Colours each time. 

These three colours are all equidistant on the colour wheel, and by choosing this combo, you’ll always achieve a balanced outfit! 🥰

Look4 How to wear Monotone Colours!

If you want to keep your look streamlined and chic, then make one colour choice only, and team it up with other items of the same colour but different in tint, shade or saturation.

This is an easy solution when you’re buying an outfit for a special occasion, and you're wishing to easily match you accessories 💫

Look5 How to wear Accent Colours!

If you like to keep your colours safe and prefer to stick to wearing black, white, grey and navy, why not try adding an accent colour? 

It’s a great way to add a focal point to your look!

Just adding a splash of colour to a neutral palette can help liven up the outfit and change it from day to night! 👠🌟

Top Tip

If certain colours you love just don't suit you, simply wear these as accent colours away from your face and keep the colours that are more flattering to your skin tone nearer to your face 😊
