CLOTHING COMBINATIONS
Technically you can create colour combinations by mixing and matching colours in your colour palette. You can combine your accent colours with your basic colours or with your dark or light neutral colours.
True Spring colours are bright, light, warm and have clear yellow undertones.
You have the medium contrast in your features, therefore you can wear your colours in medium-contrast combinations. You can wear many colours as you want without looking overwhelmed.
All type of combinations other than Monochromatic combinations will suit you. They provide medium to high contrast, because they are at the opposite side (such as blue and coral) or far apart on the colour wheel (such as orange and green) . They appear brighter and more prominent and create alive and vibrant look. For triadic and tetradic combinations, its better to use one dominant colour and use the others as accent colours in order to balance your look.
You can also pair dark and light colours in order to create contrast. Opt to pair dark neutrals with light accent or light neutrals with dark accent colours. Avoid using more than one neutral in your combinations. Ture black and white are not in your colour palette because they have cool undertones. You can use different shades of brown and beige tones in your combinations.
PATTERNS&PRINTS
Patters should contain only the true spring colours and have medium contrast between them, so they could harmonize with your natural look. Medium to small scale, busy, dotty, loosely arranged patterns and prints with round shapes and natural elements such as flowers, birds, butterflies would look perfect on you. Avoid big scale, square or other geometric and too dense patterns.
