Summer is the most suitable time for experimenting with the color of clothes and selecting bright details of the wardrobe. The cold and gray weather is finally giving way to greenery, flowers, clear skies and long warm evenings. And just as nature sparkles with bright colors, so we change our wardrobe in basic colors for something crazy, light and noticeable.
What color combinations will be popular in the summer 2021, how to choose the right color of clothes and what color trends should you take a closer look at? Hold on tight, I have a huge wave of news for you!
HOW TO COMBINE COLORS CORRECTLY?
Different colors in one look can be both a very successful solution and a complete failure: it all depends on the color combinations that you rely on. Of course, with due skill, even the combination of a red dress with a blue jacket can look good and pleasant, but let’s be honest: not all of us can boast of the skills of a stylist or colorist. Therefore, to begin with, it is enough to remember a couple of simple rules!
First, decide if you need contrast, or if you want to pick up things in shades of the same color to complete the look. A total look is easy to put together: for example, if you chose shades of blue, then a great look will come from light wide jeans, an aquamarine tank top, a sky blue button-down jacket and a cornflower blue handbag to complete the look. If you prefer contrast, then first try to combine dark and light colors: eggplant or dark blue eco-leather trousers, a mint oversize shirt, a white crop top and beige sandals, or an emerald dress and a blush jacket with bright orange shoes and a handbag. And when you feel more confident, you can mix more complex color combinations: orange and fuchsia, scarlet and mint, green and blue, etc.
A LITTLE HINT FOR THOSE WHO LOVE PRINTS
You girls have the easiest way to choose colors for a multi-colored look, because you already have a base – your print! Of course, if it is black and white, this will not help much, but in this case, you can choose any other bright color. And if there are several bright colors in the print, you can isolate them and match the rest of the clothing for the look using one or more colors from the print. So, your outfit will look complete and harmonious. For example, you have a mini dress with flowers on a taffy background. Look at the shades of petals, leaves and twigs: you can choose any and pick up a jacket, trench coat, shoes, bag, shawl or cape in this tone.
HOW TO DIVERSIFY A BASIC WARDROBE WITH COLORED ITEMS?
If you have already assembled the base for the capsule, but do not have enough color elements (or you modify it every season depending on the trends), then I advise you to create a color scheme. This will greatly simplify the selection of clothes in the future, because you will know exactly which shades suit you. Determine your face color type (based on skin, eye and hair color), find the appropriate color map, and then select shades and add them to the color scheme generator (there are many of them, even online). So, with a little time, you can create your own color map, and then choose the color of your clothes to match the trends and pair with your basics. This season, let me remind you, yellow dresses, emerald and burgundy palazzo trousers, pastel-colored suits (sage, lavender, sky blue) are especially relevant.
