Pale Blue and Lemon
Style Notes: Usually, wearing pastel on pastel means you're teetering close to the edge of looking like an Easter egg, but not where blue and yellow are concerned. The contrasting blend of warmer and cooler shades makes for a directional yet classic combination.

Style Notes: Minimalists have been wearing this tonal pairing for tears, and it's high time you gave it a try if you haven't already.
