How to Wear Neutral Colors Together

E-mail Print PDF

If the colors in your clothing make you joyful when you wear them together, they are good to go! That is not anything we oppose. While wearing classic neutrals or a limited palette of colors may be comfortable for some, others may find it difficult to pinpoint why they favor or dislike a particular combination.

For many individuals, a match in an outfit in the context of "do these colors work better together" typically refers to the unity of those tones. You may use these guidelines to figure out how to include a splash of color into a monochromatic ensemble or how to find a neutral piece that will complement a more dramatic piece of outfit or jewelry.

Suggestions provided here may be applied to any color scheme, also in neutral and bright combinations.

In general, palettes that include colors with a similar hue (for example, white or brown) will appear more cohesive than those that do not. Colors identical in terms of another color feature, such as value (how dark it is) or saturation (cobalt blue versus powder blue), may also seem to be more coherent when combined.

Let's look at some ideas to pair neutral tones within your wardrobe.

Tackling black and brown prejudice

We all know that the rule against wearing black and brown together is no longer relevant, even though it is one of the most often observed fashion "don'ts." When done correctly, black and brown colors may appear surprisingly stylish when worn together in the same ensemble.

Take below, for example; this Max Mara Nino coat and the black and brown combinations that go with it.

The black Dolce & Gabbana ankle boots are a little on the costly side, but they will be a staple in your wardrobe for years to

come.

It is possible to wear these boots with virtually every dress and occasion. Going to a meeting with your advisor, going to autumn brunch and shopping with your girlfriends, or even simply going to a class are all possibilities.

Camel and gray are a fashionable choice

If you're a fashionista who enjoys mixing and matching colors, consider pairing two traditional fall hues — gray and camel — in a single ensemble. As a consequence, you'll have a classic yet fashionable appearance.

Camel jackets are always a must-have for the fall and winter seasons. Whether sophisticated or just a little more than casual, any outfit may benefit from the addition of a pair of heels. Consider wearing a camel or brown coat with a pair of gray trousers.

In addition to turning them into a semi-chic ensemble, investing in a pair of dress pants like these will allow you to wear them in any business casual scenario.

Alternatively, camel pants and a gray coat can be worn together.

Gray, navy, and black can go the extra mile!

After you've mastered the skill of blending two neutrals, you should experiment with combining three (or more!) neutrals in a single outfit!

It's possible to use this technique with various color combinations, but try to use two tones that aren't commonly used together — black and navy — along with some gray accents. Combining all three of these hues in one outfit could appear strange. As you can see, they all work together to create a seamless aesthetic in below outfit. This is the ideal fall outfit for those of us who don't want to succumb to the pressure of wearing all black from head to toe. Instead, use these three hues to make yourself a bit more distinct.

Look at the below LOEWE coat combination, all in neutral tones while highlighting a navy top. You can also try a gray furry coat too!
