When you choose a piece of clothing there are 3 important things: how it was made, what it is made of and how it fits. However, we shouldn't ignore such an important point like color. So here are some life hacks that will help anyone to match colors like a real professional. So, first of all, you need to know about the special tool called the Itten circle which is quite popular among people who work with colors in any area. This circle includes basic colors, their mixtures and all the colors on this circle are divided into primary, secondary and complementary ones. Strategy No. 1 The simplest way to build color combinations is to match contrasting colors. One can find them on the opposite sides of the Itten circle. Together these colors always look energetic and dynamic, especially when you choose the brightest color tones. Strategy No. 2 Another easy method to follow is to go for 3 colors that are on the same distances from each other. This method gives you contrast and harmony at the same time. The main advantage is that the combination looks quite interesting even when one uses light colors like sky blue. Strategy No. 3 Try matching from 2 to 5 colors located next to each other on the circle. This combination is mostly associated with something calm and comfortable. Take for example, combinations of relatively similar colors like yellow-orange, yellow, yellow-green, green, blue-green. Strategy No. 4 If you don't want to use any tools, then this variant will be perfect. To match colors like a professional, one just has to remember that white looks great with everything, especially with blue, red and black. Black is a universal color but the best option is to choose colors like yellow, orange, pink, red, purple and white. As for grey, it will go well with red, yellow, blue, pink and purple. And last but not the least, brown can be paired with bright blue, green and beige. Which of these statements is true according to the text? Contrasting colors are next to each other on the circle. Matching similar color shades can help you combine more than 3 colors. If you choose the strategy No. 2, avoid neutral and pastel tones. Strategy No. 4: beige with grey is a perfect combination. What can you do if you don't want to use the Itten circle? Always choose basic colors like black or white. Never try to match colors. Wear only grey, brown, white and black clothes. Remember some good color combinations.
