The classic contrast combination includes shades of red with green, blue with orange, purple with yellow, and white with black. Such combinations look very bright, so when you create contrasting looks, one color must be the main one, and the other is complementary, in a proportion of 70% to 30%.

This idea can be translated to the relatable cohesion of planning a wardrobe outfit: 60 percent is the main outfit color, 30 percent provides visual interest like shoes, neck tie or handbag, 10 percent like the jewelry that provides the sparkling details.

Color Selection The most common two rules are: Choose no more than 3 colors (not including white, grey, and black) ? Balance with 60% primary color, 30% secondary, 10% tertiary.

What is the 2 by 2 or 2×2 outfit formula? It's simply wearing two casual clothing pieces with two more elevated or dressier pieces in the same outfit. This formula gives you that desirable juxtaposition that creates interest, but it also keeps the look balanced.

For example, uneven ratios of one part to three parts, two parts to three parts and three to five are traditionally considered to be more interesting and artistically pleasing than one to one or two to four which can appear boring or bulky.

One formula I've found helpful to add color while still looking chic and put-together is the 3-color rule. Aim for 3 colors in an outfit, and yes, your neutrals count. Above, I've used 3 colors: tan/camel for the pants and shoes, red sweater, and light peach blazer. (My personal preference is 2 neutrals + 1 color.

An outfit formula might be a slim fit pant, such as a pair of jeans, oversized blouse and then tailored blazer over the top. If you have a couple of slim fit pants and different blouses you can make lots of fast combinations of outfits without much thought.
