We are in luck.

Today more than ever, fashion has accepted once unthinkable color combinations, such as

navy blue

and

black

, for example, an unexpected wonder.

In addition, the fact that combining the color of the accessories has gone from being 'mandatory' to being considered totally out of place, has only helped to open us up to new ways of handling the chromatic universe, less restrictive and shy.

Although also more risky.

Because, of course, some combinations work better than others.

And there is still some out there that is directly unacceptable.

The worst?

Those in which we try to square garments of almost identical colors but which are not, and whose superposition bothers the eye, which makes the effort to find the match without success.

Two types of black,

for example.

Or a very greenish brown with a very brownish green.

Some families also fail to be harmonious, such as

yellow and vanilla,

for example.

Or the one with

pink and orange.

In this album we show you 10 'rules' to get the color scheme right.

A GENERAL RULE, NOT TO GET LOST

Although some aspects of the theory that states that

complementary colors

(you can see them in the last image of the album) always fit well with each other are more than debatable -the tuning between red and green is one of the most difficult that exists, except if It is a very light green and, above all, if you use 'facilitators' such as black and white), it is true that, as a general rule, playing with complementary colors when combining clothes usually gives good results.

But just as important as color are

intensity

and

tone

.

And even a cultural component that makes us prefer some combinations over others.

That is why, despite the fact that many are not complementary to each other, playing with different pastel shades usually gives such good results.

Because it refers to a baby universe, with sweet and humorous touches that are now attractive to us.
