True Spring

True Spring outfits

Use these three-color recipes as a starting point for clothes you already own. The shapes and materials are up to you.

Golden yellow, leaf green and clear coral work well as an easy starting point. Warmth matters more than being the lightest or brightest person in the room.

Three color recipes

Everyday layers

Greenish Grey for trousers or a skirt, Light Peach for a top, and Dull Yellow in a scarf, bag or smaller layer.

A workday combination

Slate Grey for trousers or a skirt, Greenish Grey 2 for a top, and Avocado in a scarf, bag or smaller layer.

A little more color

Charcoal Grey for trousers or a skirt, Greyish Brown for a top, and Greenish in a scarf, bag or smaller layer.

A practical rule

Choose the neutral for the largest garment, an accent for the smaller garment, and one detail. Repeat a color to tie the outfit together.

For this palette, begin with moderate contrast and adjust the size of the accent.

Try it with what you own

Choose one item from your wardrobe or makeup kit. Compare it with a chip, then look at the actual item in neutral daylight. Keep notes about combinations you enjoy.
