True Summer outfits
Use these three-color recipes as a starting point for clothes you already own. The shapes and materials are up to you.
Blue-based rose, misty blue and cool plum balance coolness with a softened finish. Cool grays can hold a wardrobe together without stark black-and-white contrast.
Three color recipes
Everyday layers
Bluey Grey for trousers or a skirt, Light Grey 2 for a top, and Baby Blue in a scarf, bag or smaller layer.
A workday combination
Battleship Grey 2 for trousers or a skirt, Cool Grey 3 for a top, and Greeny Blue 2 in a scarf, bag or smaller layer.
A little more color
Dark Blue Grey for trousers or a skirt, Slate Grey 3 for a top, and Faded Blue 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 softer palette, try colors of a similar depth together before adding a strong contrast.
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.
