Colors That Go With Blue

Blue is a color traditionally associated with feelings such as serenity, peace, balance… and it’s also one of the most chosen colors worldwide for clothing. It’s precisely this frequent use that has led blue to be considered almost a neutral tone.

But blue can be much more. It can be a very formal color, perfect for a gala dress, or a color for everyday wear with a clear contemporary touch. So, what’s the key to making a color in its entire spectrum convey such different sensations?

The answer is simple: how you pair blue. And although it’s true that blues differ greatly, like navy blue, Klein blue, or baby blue, the fact is that if you use the colors that go with blue, as we’ll tell you below, you can’t go wrong.

Gray

Gray is always a safe bet, especially if you want to achieve an elegant look. As with blue, it doesn't matter which shade of gray you choose; they all work perfectly. A simple and elegant look can be created by combining a gray knit dress with a navy blue overshirt.

Yellow

If you want to create an outfit as vibrant as you are, pair your favorite blue with yellow. This will add warmth and a cheerful note to the blue, creating a contrast that won’t go unnoticed — in the best possible way.

White

Pairing blue with white is a classic — a combination that works anytime and anywhere. From a sailor-style outfit for everyday wear to a formal look with white shoes and a bag. Don’t hesitate to embrace this fresh and rejuvenating combination.

Beige and Earth Tones

If you want to go for a bold blue, we recommend pairing it with other tones that soften its intensity, like beige or earth tones. This will give your outfit a more elegant and balanced contemporary touch. Once you try it, we’re sure it’ll become one of your wardrobe essentials.

Coral and Orange Tones

Among the colors that go with blue in clothing, warm tones are always a good choice, especially when they create a contrast like orange and coral do. These not only bring freshness to your outfit — essential for summer — but, when used in their darker versions, they give a sophisticated and contemporary vibe to any look.

Metallic Tones

Yes, we know metallics go with practically any color, but you have to admit they make a special pair with blue. Combining a navy blue dress with a silver bag, or adorning a blue outfit with gold jewelry and accessories will always be a hit. The same goes for other shades like chrome or bronze.

Pink

The range of pinks is almost as broad as that of blues, and by combining the two, you can create both innocent, sweet, naïve-inspired looks, as well as bold outfits mixing fuchsia and electric blue. As with anything related to fashion, the only limit is your imagination.

Green

Leaf green, mint green, sage green… Pair your favorite blue with any of these, without fear. Greens are a guaranteed bet and will allow you to create everything from the most elegant outfits for an unforgettable night, to super refreshing looks for a spring afternoon with friends.

Black

The most classic combination of all, alongside blue and white, is blue and black. A combination that has been present throughout fashion history, from disco-influenced fashion in the '70s to the minimalism of the '90s, passing through the excesses of the '80s. You just need to find the ideal occasion to wear it.

Blue

Finally, the most obvious yet often overlooked combination: why not go for an all-blue look? Or, better yet, different shades of blue. Blue is an excellent choice to pair with itself, especially if you mix various tones with different textures like denim with satin, sweatshirt fabric, or poplin. Whatever your preferred option, the most important thing is to enjoy wearing it.
