Picking The Right Colors
Fashion is more than just about the kinds of clothes you put on your body, it's about picking the right color palettes too. If anything, that might be the most important of all! To make sure you're always in season, here are 10 colors that are best worn during winter and 10 in summer. Never doubt your ability to match the seasons ever again.
1. Burgundy
A deep, reddish-brown shade that's reminiscent of wine is the perfect color to wear in the winter. It immediately gives off a beautiful warmth that has you looking and feeling cozy despite the cool air around you.
2. Black
For many people, black is a go-to color you can never go wrong with. After all, black goes with pretty much anything and looks flattering on a variety of body shapes! And in the winter, it looks great on sweaters, leggings, boots, turtlenecks, and any sort of warm winter wear.
3. Brown
Earthy tones are a must when the weather gets colder. Wearing various shades of brown just compliment the wintery, crisp colors you'll find outside. There's just something about brown that feels so homey and comforting, two things you want to feel during the wintertime.
4. Beige
You don't always have to go the dark route when it comes to winter! Lovely shades of beige give off that wintery aesthetic you're likely going for. It pairs well with plenty of these other great winter shades too, making it an easy option to throw on.
5. Royal Blue
Royal blue might not seem like a winter color at first, but when you think about its cool, deep tone, it makes it a perfect fit. It's a great contrasting color to play around with, giving you a bold, lively shade to play with during this seemingly lifeless season.
6. Deep Purples
If you want to look like royalty this winter, we highly recommend purchasing winter wear in the shade of deep purples. Rich, warm, and luxurious, deep purples give off the classiest wintery vibe that feels more mature.
7. Emerald Green
Similarly, wearing clothes in emerald green can really give your winter outfits a touch of sophistication. The earthiness of this shade makes it a unique winter tone that can really pop when paired with even deeper colors like brown or black.
8. Bright Red
Bright red might seem out of place on this list, but don't forget, Christmas is a huge part of the winter season! Show off your festive spirit and amazing fashion taste by standing out against the winter background with clothes featuring this hot and fiery color.
9. White
White might just have the coolest tone out of all the colors, making it ideal for winter. It definitely helps that it's the color of snow too! The polar opposite of black, white can also be an incredibly flattering color that accentuates your best features.
10. Ivory
If white feels a little too bright for you, tone it down a bit by reaching for ivory shades instead. A bit warmer with a lovely creaminess to it, ivory can give off the same effect as the color white, just in a less intense and extreme way.
1. Mint Green
If you really want to enjoy the positive, lively, and bright feelings that come with summer, there's no better way to showcase that than wearing something that's mint green. This color is incredibly summery and instantly makes us think of flowers and fresh grass.
2. Lilac
While deep purples are great for winter, lighter, paler shades work far better in the summertime. Lilac is a gorgeous color that feels effortless and breezy, exactly how you want to feel under the sun.
3. Orange
Sometimes, you just have to go big or go home! Orange might not seem like the most flattering shade, but it's certainly a vibrant color that's ideal for the summertime vibes. It gives any look a great pop of color and can easily brighten up any outfit.
4. Coral Pink
Out of all the different pinks out there, coral pink definitely speaks to summer the best. Something about this color just feels electric, as it helps to make any look feel so much more lively.
5. Yellow
Yellow might be a hard color to pair, but nothing beats dressing for the summer than a stunning yellow dress that reminds you of sunflowers, the sun, and happiness. This is one color that can instantly put a smile on your face.
6. Light Blue
Though light blue tends to give off a calming effect, it's a surprisingly great color for the summer. The contrast between soft and gentle against the dazzling summer sun is a unique combo that somehow works effortlessly.
7. Peach
A comforting color that feels familiar, peach tones work beautifully in the summer to showcase a kind of gentle warmth that feels like the sun hitting your skin. It's definitely not a loud, obnoxious color, but it gives off that carefree vibe we all love feeling during this season.
8. Grey
You might be thinking we put this color on the wrong side of the list, but hear us out. Grey is often considered a summer color because of its soft, muted tone that feels like a hazy afternoon. Similar to black and white for winter colors, grey is a great option that pairs well with pretty much everything.
9. Turquoise
A color that feels incredibly energetic, turquoise is a great bold summer color that'll have you standing out in any crowd. It's a noisy color that immediately draws attention to itself, which is best suited for the liveliness of summertime.
10. Pastel Pink
Coral pink might be the most summery of all the pinks, but that doesn't mean we have to forget about the pastels! Gentle, light, and airy, this shade works the same as all the lighter options on this list: it gives off this carefree, lazy effect that works great for this season.
