Melina is here and this is what she has to say.
Colours can be hard to style and many people tend to stray away from them when they can which can limit you to your full potential of expressing yourself. For many, cashing colours can be a fashion curse but in this article you can find all of Melina 's tips to help combat that and show you new possibilities with your wardrobe that helps bring life into your old clothing. Prints, textures and so much more will be addressed and colour theory will not seem confusing after you have a read of what Melina has to say.
In fashion, colour matching and coordinating can seen difficult and intimidating but it does not have to be that way! There are many different ways you can look at colours and it all differentiates on how you want your outfit to look in the end. What we like to use is called colour theory, which helps visualize how colours will look together and helps create a colour pallet for your outfits. Many use the analogous or the complementary pallets when choosing colours. For these, basic rules follow the different pallets and we shall cover a few and you can decide which works for you. Analogous pallets contain colours that sit next to each other in the colour wheel. For example, dark blue, light blue and dark green or purple, pink and red. This helps create a monochromatic outfit but adds depth simultaneously as to not create a "blocky" and "boring" outfit. Contrastingly, complementary colours sit opposite from each other on the colour wheel and this pallet helps create contrast within any outfit and is a go to for high fashion lovers who love to add a bit of pop into their outfits. Some commonly seen complementary colours can include pink and green as well as purple and yellow. As summer approaches, brighter colours are becoming more in style, so this new knowledge on colour pallets and the benifits of using the colour wheel can be used to elevate you wardrobe as well as experiment with something out of your comfort zone.

Another example of a colour theory pallet is split complementary which is being used on the model in this article. How you can find the split complementary pallet you like? All you have to do if find your main colour, look at the opposite colour on the colour wheel and focus on the two colours either side of it. Those 3 colours will be your pallet. For example, we took green and its opposite colour (red) and selected the two colours on either side of the red. This left us with Green, pink and orange. This specific pallet plays a similar role to the complementary pallet as it also helps add contrast to any outfit but it contains more than 2 colours. With more colours you can experiment with more textures as well as different fabrics to help elevate your fashion.
