Splendid Color Combinations for Your Vintage Wardrobe: Part I

Making sure that you have the best color combinations in your wardrobe is one of the most important rules you should follow if you strongly intend to look great and neat in any situation. It’s not a secret that we all have 2–3 beloved colors, and our wardrobes are full of these colors. We have already posted about the most beloved colors and their psychological meanings. Now, let us think seriously about the colors themselves. We all know our beloved colors, and we probably have some ideas about their hidden meanings. However, that does not mean we always pair colors wisely. If you know the basic rules of color combinations, you will look splendid, attractive and high class, which will definitely lead to your success. Let’s return to the psychology of color.

The Best Color Combinations
Although getting the right color combinations is no easy task, having the right color combination skills is a necessity in today’s world. As a basic rule of thumb, the basic color combinations should serve as the base for your vintage style wardrobe, especially when it comes to vintage-style dresses. Successful color combinations will make you look fabulous in the eyes of others even if you are an ordinary clerk in an unknown company! Some commonly paired colors include:- orange and blue
- red and green
- violet and yellow
Beloved Blue
Psychologists claim that this is the color of power and that it is beyond passions. Nevertheless, blue tends to be a rare color in most wardrobes. So, you should take special care when it comes to the shades of this color as well as the colors you pair with it. The combination of blue and lilac or mauve is considered the most successful combination, as well as the most pleasing blue color combination to the eye.

This color is rather romantic. Thus, shades of green look splendid when paired with purple and violet. Of course, this color may look great with both brunettes and blondes (unnatural blondes whose natural season color type is spring or fall).(vintage style short length dress)
Beloved Red
We have dedicated a ton of posts to red colors and vintage-style dresses in red. Although dominating red will improve your mood, it “squeezes” the owners of red apparel more than other colors do. That’s why stylists do not recommend that you wear this color constantly. However, it is good to wear vintage-style dresses in red if you are attending an affair where you need to emphasize your personality and sexuality.

Red color goes perfectly with many other colors. It looks great with green, blue, gray, violet, golden yellow and, definitely, black. But pure red will hardly go well with terracotta, orange, brown or red-yellow shades.To be continued in part II…
