Here is a variety of colour-coordinated looks that will excite and enhance your style. From bold green and yellow outfits to chic pink and grey ensembles, these stylish ideas will teach you how to wear bold colours without clashing.

Ready to embrace the rainbow? Here are the clothing colour combinations you need to try this year.

Green and Yellow

Fresh and clean, green and yellow looks great on most complexions. If you’re warm-toned, focus on mustard, khaki and dark green. If you’re cool-toned, sharpen up an outfit by adding bright yellows and iridescent greens.

Pale Blue and Pink

Soft pinks and blues may sound subtle, but when styled in the right way, they can be as eye-catching as a bright pop of colour. This colour combination will remind you of the soft scent of jasmine and a warm spring breeze.

Red and Blue

The red and blue colour combination is one of our all-time favourite looks. We love how you can completely transform a pair of jeans with a tailored red jacket and killer heels. It’s business up top and party on the bottom. It’s sexy without being over the top, and it smartens up a casual look.

Cobalt Blue and Turquoise

Combine cobalt blue with turquoise and you have a colour match that is powerful and bright. Wear this colour combination with elegance and class. You don’t necessarily need to break it up with a neutral colour like white or cream, and it’s one of those combinations that can look great with both silver and gold accessories making a versatile styling partnership. Your imagination only limits you.

Orange and Blue

Orange and blue is the perfect colour scheme to use for a colour blocking technique. Opt for blue pants and add an orange top or choose a piece that mixes the perfect blend of both colours. For something a little different, try a burnt orange mix with a darker navy blue. Whichever way you choose to wear these shades, be sure to add the perfect shoe.

Tan and Maroon

Tans and light neutral colours can be hard to style and leave you looking drab and rundown, but if you style them with a deep rich colour like maroon, you will have a match made in heaven. 

Orange and Black

Whether it’s a dress that perfectly combines this brilliant colour combination or individual items, orange and black, is the new black. Nothing lifts a black outfit more than a bright, bold colour and orange certainly does it.

Pink and Grey

Pink and grey is a great look which you can utilise all-year-round with some versatile pieces. There are no limitations with the way that you can use this clothing colour combination. 

Purple and Coral

Coral was once reserved for your nanas lipstick but the colour made famous by Ita Buttrose has now taken its place as one of the most versatile shades. Wearing purple and coral with confidence will make the perfect summer outfit.

Purple and White

While white goes with anything, nothing looks more fantastic than when it’s paired with purple.  It makes your skin look creamy, and it just oozes femininity and sensuality. This marriage is so versatile that you can also mix in some gold and silver accessories and convert a daytime high tea look to a night out with friends.
