Colors that match green

How to combine the color green

As we already told you in "how to combine colors of clothes with style", green is a complicated color but not impossible to combine . Although varieties of this color such as military green, olive or khaki are the simplest; the most authentic green tends to resist us. Therefore, we have two options: try colors until we find a few that we verify that they combine well or look at the color wheel. The color opposite to green is the one that best combines with this, that is, red and green combine .

How NOT to combine green EVER

Not everything goes. Green and red are already very strong colors that they need the least are more ornaments . In this look we have several elements left over. To begin with, the patterns on the garments (too many); to follow, the golden bag (unnecessary considering that you already draw attention to the clothes); and finally, the pink shoes (were they very necessary?). But don't worry, because some of our famous favorites show us what colors go with green and how they are worn (with much more style).

In the style of Olivia Palermo

The one who is the most influential woman in all of New York maintains her line of simplicity but does not renounce any color. In this case it has a dark green printed on velvet, which adds elegance. Olivia combines this with a black top underneath because, as we said before, green does not need additional decoration.

In the style of Meghan Markle

If the Duchess of Sussex confirms what Olivia has already shown us, it is an undeniable fact: SURPRISE! Green and black are great companions! Although it is preferable with the most neutral and dark green tones, two of the most stylish women in the world have made us the graphic demonstration.

In the style of Alexa Chung

Army green is one of our favorites, especially now that fall is approaching. We have found that it is a color that goes very well with the python print, for example (so fashionable at the moment). But in reality, if we had to decide on a single color to combine military green, that would be white, as Alexa Chung has done this time.

In the style of Victoria Beckham

And if the queen of British street style says that you can combine green pants with an orange top, who are we to contradict her? On the face of it, to everyone's surprise, Victoria's outfit is even pleasing to the eye. Would you dare

In the style of Martha Hunt

Another model that we cannot contradict in terms of style, blue and green combine, no matter how much the mixture shocks us verbally. But then when we see the result, we even like it. Just as you would never have said that green and blue go well together, it may happen with more colors. Make your own combinations and test until you get it right.

In the style of Aimee Song

Although it seems like an overloaded look , in reality the blogger does not make any chromatic errors here (except the pattern of the shoes, which we would eliminate). If you look closely, Aimee is wearing white pants, a military jacket, and a red bag: all of which are allowed with the color green. Although if the set seems too much, it would be enough to neutralize any of the three colors.

In the style of Kate Middleton

Nobody like the Duchess of Cambridge to show us how sweet apple green is and how easy it is to wear it with nude pumps. Your Honor, nothing more to say.

In the style of Chrissy Teigen

The model opts for the most summery tone of this color, aqua green. And, like Kate Middleton, Chrissy knows that if you don't feel like getting complicated, nude is always a BIG wild card.

In the style of Jessica Alba

You might think that the actress's blazer is not one of your favorites, but look at how Jessica has combined it with some basic jeans and the effect has not been so tremendous. When in doubt, keep it simple and go for the most basic wild card you have.

In the style of Chanel Iman

Like Olivia and Meghan do but in a more minimalist way, combining an olive green silk dress and black heels seems the perfect solution. What more can you ask for from this fantastic look ?

In the style of Karlie Kloss

Exactly the same is the opinion of the model, which shows us that with this type of green (almost) everything is admissible but that like black there is nothing.

In the style of Amal Clooney

But of course, if what you are already wearing is a powerful green dress like Amal's, the best thing you can do is bet on the one-color. On the face of it, it surpasses any other combination, considering the strength of this type of green.

In the style of Blake Lively

We bet you have never seen a lime green as blinding as the one the actress has worn a few days ago and, also, in an integral total look version . But let's be clear, whether you like this type of green more or less, the one color that Blake has chosen was the most consistent.

From the creators of "COLORES POLÉMICOS" comes the color green to exceed all our expectations. This is most likely the most complicated and unappetizing color you've ever seen. But nothing is impossible and we have photos to prove it: the color green combines with many colors that you would never expect and you may even fall in love with the mix.

How do I combine green clothes

Faced with this question, you have two options:

Stay in the most comfortable area and go for neutral colors. It is proven that colors such as white, black, nude and even gray are always going to be good options. In this case, with green, too.
Experiment with colors that you would never have combined it with . You may even get a very pleasant surprise. You also thought that mustard does not combine with the python print and we have shown you that it does (a lot and very well) .

If you decide to experiment with the color green , keep these guidelines in mind:

To start, take a look at the color wheel. Normally, the colors that are placed diametrically in the opposite place are opposite and, by contrast, they match well. In this case, green is directly facing red. This can be scary a priori, but all you need is to try it yourself to lose your fear because it is a fact: red and green are a most successful combination (without prejudices).

Therefore, and if you decide to try red or orange (also acceptable), you will have to avoid adding other colors . That is, they are two colors that are already very striking and what your styling will need the least is that you add more. In addition, if you can do without overloaded patterns and decorations in general, better (metallics also excluded).
