Style Notes: Brown and green needn't be reserved for commandos or hikers. In fact, they actually look incredibly expensive when worn together. Keep your clothing khaki and your accessories cognac (a slightly warmer and richer iteration of brown) for the best results.

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. Shades of cream and light camel look effortless together and somehow manage to make even the most casual of ensembles look slick. Add black accessories if you think the outfit needs some definition.

Rose and Red

Style Notes: Formally considered a style taboo, wearing red and pink together is now incredibly chic. The trick is to avoid vivid shades and instead opt for dusty or deep tones.
