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 dark or light neutral colours.
Your colours are bright (not overly bright as Bright Winters) and have blue undertones.
You have high contrast in your features; therefore, you can wear your colours in high-contrast combinations. Complementary and analogous combinations would suit you the best.
Make sure you use one neutral and one accent colour for these combinations, otherwise it would be too overwhelming.
You can also pair dark and light colours to create a contrast. Combine darker neutrals with lighter accents or lighter neutrals with darker accents. A Black and white combination is your best look.
PATTERNS&PRINTS
Patters should contain only the True Winter colours and have high contrast between them so that they can harmonize with your natural look. Medium to large-scale patterns and prints would pop up the bright colours. Avoid faded colours and blended or minimal patterns; use bold, geometric, and abstract designs instead. Black and white combinations would look more flattering on you. If you like floral patterns, choose the ones with bright colours.
