sunny yellow
Warm, cheerful, dynamic… So many positive adjectives to describe one of the three primary colors: yellow! And for good reason: in color psychology, it suggests happiness and seems to convey a range of positive emotions. To be worn, therefore, without moderation, to leave no one indifferent.
But how can you brighten up your outfit with yellow?
First, be sure to choose your shade of yellow wisely. If you do not wish to attract (all) the attention to yourself, opt for subtle yellows (mustard, pale) rather than bright ones, and use them sparingly. For example, focus on accessories: brighten your summer look with yellow mules, earrings, or even a handbag. Also, choose your color based on your skin tone: pastel or even bright yellows will enhance tanned and dark skin, while mustard will suit blondes and light complexions perfectly. Finally, since yellow is a primary color, it should be quite easy to pair it with other colors: it goes well with purple, its complementary color, but also pairs nicely with bright tones for a colorblock effect (green, red, blue…) or pastels to contrast your outfit.
Passion Red
Blood red, carmine red, passion red… Also a primary color on the color wheel, red is synonymous with life, action, and strong emotions (anger, love, passion). With its vibrancy, it captures the attention of those who look at it and conveys a sense of urgency and warmth. Once again, the shades of red you choose to wear will determine the meaning you give it: dark reds (burgundy, carmine) will add a luxurious effect to your look, while bright reds (scarlet, tomato) will evoke a feeling of warmth or courage. Red can also be difficult to pair in fashion; long associated with sensuality and the imagery of the femme fatale, it is now worn with neutral tones (black, white) or shimmering tones (gold, bronze) that give it a vintage and premium appearance. Dare to also combine red and pink: although it was once seen as a NO-GO in fashion, it is now proudly worn by our favorite fashionistas who have made it a pop trend to adopt!
Our advice: be careful with the red/green combination, as it can quickly turn you into a Christmas elf (!)
Natural green
Inextricably linked to Nature, green also evokes balance, security, ecology, rebirth, and progress. Pleasant to the eye, it has been psychologically proven that green has soothing and relaxing virtues!
So, at the dawn of summer, embrace the green!
Whether in key pieces (t-shirt, blouse, pants) or as accents, green combined with yellow will give a luminous and vibrant effect to your look. The overall ambiance of your outfit will once again be determined by the chosen shades: for a romantic outfit, opt for light tones (sage green, pastel); for an offbeat look, sport a bold neon green. Finally, for an elegant outfit, adopt a deep green (fir, emerald).
As a general rule, green remains an easy color to pair: pink, mauve, and blue will be its best allies, while it will be enhanced when combined with neutral colors (black, white, gray).
Spiritual violet
Secondary color formed from blue and red, purple has the particularity of being almost non-existent in its natural state. Cold or warm depending on its shades (plum, magenta, lilac, violet…), it brings a breath of freshness when light, and a feeling of warmth when dark. Purple is also recognized for its ambivalence: as soft as it is energetic, as melancholic as it is joyful, it is even a symbol of meditation, peace, and spirituality in the Art of feng shui. Once a sign of royalty, it is now a contemporary color appreciated in Fashion and Decoration, and was even designated Pantone Color of the Year in 2018 through Ultra Violet.
To add a touch of purple to your look (or your life), sprinkle it sparingly on accessories (hat, tie, sunglasses, handbag). Very feminine when worn in shades, purple balances perfectly with white or beige, and is energized alongside yellow, red, or green pieces.
Our tip: for a refined look, pair it with gray: so chic!
