What color do you like most? Which color group are most of your clothes resorted to? Are there color matching rules?

Well, I think most people don’t have concrete answer to questions above how things match. You can consult your family or friends for some suggestions. Otherwise you can try some kinds of possibilities and take photos to analyze your look for yourself to see how you are, and ask yourself why your outfits do or do not work.

But here I still want to present some basic rules of color matches to you all. If you just don’t want to look weird, there may be something you should know more about.

Red could be associated with blood or the source of life and it also represent the consciousness of strong self independence. The combination of red, yellow and gray is a classic match for the similar color rule. This match works if you want to highlight the light gray or dark gray silk scarf. The yellow contrast shows the dynamic. The active of red and the passive of gray create a sense of balance so it unexpectedly demonstrates a distinctive trendy sweet. Red to red is the basic color match with the similar color rule. But for the red, it will make a strong effect.

Green is the representation of trees or forest which gives you a feel of nature world. Based on the contrast color rules, the green clothes coupled with orange silk scarves can associate it with the flowers in the tropical forest. If you like the contrast color match, the brown scarf can go well with green clothing and it looks peaceful and elegant. The light green, red, and yellow are three basic colors so you can also refer to that combination.

Yellow is the color for sunshine which symbolizes active and easy outgoing. The yellow and blue is a classic example of the contrast color between hot color tone and the cold one. The strong yellow shows the emphasis on self-assertion but a blue silk scarf can add a balanced touch. If you feel difficult to match yellow and dark blue, you can tie the scarf with a necktie knot which gives you the feel of lively and humor. The positive attitude of yellow and the steady of pink seem inappropriate. However, it can give you an impression of happy and fantasy if you choose bright light yellow and light pink.

Pink is a symbol of winter sweet and the impression of sweet and happy. The pink clothes enhance the feel of sweet and happiness but people feel the loss of themselves. If go with a black scarf, it can make up that loss. The pink scarf is a basic match with a pink dress. If there is a bit gray touch on the silk scarf, it can give you the calm and elegant impression. If a pink dress goes with a brown scarf, it will bring the winter blossom into your imagination and show the beauty of the nature.

Black shows heavy, intense, and the impression of suppressed while white represents purity, peace and the feel of stable. Because white and black belong to non-color series, they can be the best coordinated colors. If black matches with non-color, it will give you a mystery sense of Chinese ink painting. However, it will present a feel of trendy modern city if black is combined with the three primary colors. White can show a cool, calm, and gentle feeling if match with light tone color. But it could give a cheerful feeling if go with a strong color. Even the purple which is difficult to match with other colors can achieve a perfect result with white.

But as the colors mentioned above, it’s best to avoid holiday colors such as red and green, orange and black, pink and red, along with certain shades of red and yellow combinations, which can bring to mind the hamburger chain with golden arches if not styled correctly. Steer away from wearing the same color on top and bottom unless it’s black. For instance, a red shirt with red pants can look tasteless and tacky.

In fact in most times, things don’t have to “match” but to “go”. Rules mentioned above are something basic but not must-to-obey things. Put more creativity into your daily matches, you will find you are much better than you give yourself credit for. Only change slightly things in your daily life and you will find how things can turn to be.

Just have a try!
