True Winter outfits
Use these three-color recipes as a starting point for clothes you already own. The shapes and materials are up to you.
Blue-red, sapphire and clear emerald make a crisp, cool statement. Distinct light-and-dark combinations are often easier than blending many dusty middle tones.
Three color recipes
Everyday layers
Cool Grey 2 for trousers or a skirt, Very Light Pink for a top, and Pink in a scarf, bag or smaller layer.
A workday combination
Battleship Grey 2 for trousers or a skirt, Grey 2 for a top, and Periwinkle in a scarf, bag or smaller layer.
A little more color
Charcoal Grey 3 for trousers or a skirt, Battleship Grey 3 for a top, and Red Purple 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 clearer palette, let a distinct accent stand beside a simple neutral.
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.
