Playing with colours and patterns is one of the most fun and creative parts of dressing up. Combining these elements can turn any outfit into a real work of art. Yet, matching patterns and shades can seem challenging. Here are simple tips to achieve an impressive and harmonious result.
1. Basic rule of thumb: Simplicity and balance
If you're new to colour combinations, start simple. Choose one dominant pattern, such as stripes or flowers, and complement it with one neutral piece of clothing. This contrast lets the pattern stand out without making the outfit look cluttered.
2. Experiment with similar tones
For more advanced experimentation, try combining colours in the same palette. For example, shades of blue - from light sky blue to dark navy - complement each other perfectly and create a harmonious but distinctive look. A similar approach can be applied to other colours to suit your taste.
3. Mixing patterns with boldness
The more daring among you can mix multiple patterns at once. The key is to find a common element - for example, a similar colour palette. Try combining stripes with flowers, or geometric shapes with subtle polka dots. The result can be both unexpected and stylish.
4. Don't forget the accessories
Colours and patterns don't just have to be on the clothes. Handbags, scarves, jewellery or shoes can be a great way to add style to an outfit. Colourful details can tie together different elements of an outfit to create a cohesive look.
Colour and pattern combinations are a unique way to bring a mood or story into your everyday style. Don't be afraid to experiment because fashion is all about fun and endless possibilities.
