Six vibrant color combinations I'm eager to experiment with for the upcoming spring season
=====================================================================================
As spring approaches, the author is embracing bolder colour choices in their fashion, reflecting the vibrant trends of the season. Here's a closer look at the author's recent outfit and the colour combinations that are making waves in spring 2023 fashion.
The author is currently captivated by a variety of colour combinations, including fuchsia pink and burgundy, soft yellow and sage green, cornflower blue and kelly green, burgundy and lime green, cobalt blue and leopard print, and red and barely there blue.
Among these, the combinations of fuchsia pink and burgundy, and soft yellow and sage green, stand out as popular and seasonally appropriate. These pairings align well with the spring colour palettes described for Clear Spring and Light Spring, which favour bright reds and pinks, yellows like butter or banana, and medium to light greens and blues.
The fuchsia pink and burgundy combination fits well with the bright, warm pinks and reds of Clear Spring’s palette, favouring warm brilliant shades of pink and medium-to-light reds. The soft yellow and sage green match Light Spring’s preference for yellows like banana and honey and many greens in the light spectrum. Cornflower blue and kelly green corresponds to Clear Spring’s and Light Spring’s affinity for saturated blues (both green and purple family) and greens.
In contrast, combinations like burgundy and lime green, cobalt blue and leopard print, and red and barely there blue are less directly aligned with these spring palettes and popular seasonal trends.
Spring 2023 fashion has highlighted bright, warm, and jewel-tone colour pairings that feel fresh and vibrant, avoiding stark black and white and very soft pastels.
The author is wearing an Aritzia Alpha Tee, H&M sweater (old), Adidas Sambas, and a Chan Luu Isla Necklace. They are also sporting Mejuri Thin Dome Rings, Medium Tome Earrings, and a Dainty Beaded Ring. A handmade beaded anklet similar to the one the author is wearing is available at Urban Outfitters and DONNI. There is a vintage pave ring similar to the one the author is wearing, available at Quince for under $250 and $46.00.
The author's interest in colour started to stir last fall, and they are now exercising and improving their colour muscle in their fashion choices. They initially added pops of red to their neutral outfits, but are now experimenting with more daring colour combinations. The author is proud of a colour execution in their outfit on Monday, February 26. They are also featuring Pair of Thieves Men's No Show Socks and carrying an Adanola Canvas Tote, with shipping to the US taking about 3 weeks.
