Complimentary colors

Hey guys! What are your favorite color combos with clothing?

Sometimes, I'll look at what someone is wearing and say to myself- Damn those colors look awesome together why did I think to match them together!! :/
lol I guess some of us aren't as creative as others haha

Re: Complimentary colors

i love teal and purple and pink and red

these aren't actually complimentary colors, the teal / purple is are analogous colors (colors that are side by side on a color wheel) and the pink / red are monochromatic (colors that are the same but vary due to tint and shade)

but as far as true complimentary colors (colors that are opposite each other on the color wheel) is definitely pink and green. like a maybelline great lash bottle.

Pink and gold; brown and turquoise? Now those are combos I've never tried.

I like yellow/gold and green.

Re: Complimentary colors

I love brown and turquoise as well. As a matter of fact, I'm searching for a summer dress with these colors. Any suggestions on where to look? I don't want to spend too much money.

Re: Complimentary colors

Rachael Marie,

The lipstick colors in your avatar are complimentary colors and look very nice together: Lilac & Gold

Re: Complimentary colors

Re: Complimentary colors

I do a lot of contrasting colors, like a green v-neck with a pink cami underneath. Or complimentary like If I'm wearing a white tank top with navy polka dots, I'll wear a navy cami over top.

I'm very picky if I'm wearing jeans about whether or not the wash of my jeans matches the top i'm wearing.
