Orange And Blue

One of the first things you study in basic fashion design is the color wheel. It’s a handy tool for people who find it difficult to decide which color goes with which. One of the safest and most basic color combinations is pairing complementary colors together. If you want to add more colors, you can add adjacent colors or colors that belong to the same color family to your primary colors. Once you get that down pat, you can slowly experiment more.

If you’re dealing with loud or bright colors and you’re still a little on the conservative side, stick to neutrals and basic colors for your accessories and shoes to tone your look down a bit.

Styletrend Shop pants (belt included)

Style Staple top

Yhansy necklace

SM Accessories ring

Chanel bag | Happyboon leopard cuff | Stylista.PH gold claw cuff

Topshop pumps

I hope I was able to help a few confused souls out there with my simple and short tips for combining colors. I know a lot of you have been asking for a few tips. This isn’t much but it’s a good start.  You must remember though that at the end of the day, fashion really can’t be explained by a set of rules. Nothing is set in stone. If you look and feel good, then it works!

    Hi Camille! Can I ask which Topshop branch did you buy your pumps from? And when did you buy it? Is it stil available now?

      Rockwell but I bought them a long long time ago, like years ago :)

        I figured! Cause I think that’s the only branch with a large variety of Topshop heels. Thanks for the ‘years ago’ info. I was planning to go to Rockwell just to buy that. I can’t imagine my disappointment if I went all the way there just to find out that it’s not in stock. ahahahaha!

    amazing tips ate camille. i learn a lot from your color combination tips. im struggling in color combination, now i know na the basic riles. thank you!

    may i ask something. okay lang ba na magsuot ng bright color ang tulad kong di maputi? im not yet try kasi, feeling ko mas lalo akong iitim tingnan pag nagsuot ako ng bright cloths but i love bright colors, di lang yata nila ko like. hehehe.

    thank you for the tips ate camile. lovelovelove.
