Matching Clothes: Tips to Coordinate Colors
- Thread starter KingNothing

Click For Summary
To effectively coordinate clothing colors, it's recommended to start with versatile options like black and khaki pants, avoiding matching shirts with pants of the same color. Black shirts should not be worn with black pants, and similarly, khaki shirts should not pair with khaki pants. Socks should match the color of the pants—black socks with black pants and tan socks with khaki. For casual wear, earth tones and muted colors are preferred, while bright colors can complicate outfit coordination. It's also suggested that shirts, belts, and shoes should generally follow a light-dark matching principle rather than being the same color. The discussion emphasizes the importance of comfort and personal style, with some participants advocating for a relaxed approach to fashion. Additionally, the concept of "color seasons" is mentioned, indicating that individual color preferences can enhance overall appearance.

Pastels aren't muted, greyed down, they're colors that have been mixed with white.tribdog said:

Are people in shorts not allowed to wear shoes?
I get chastized all the time when I wear socks and sandals, but it keeps the snow off my toes. It seems dressing myself is yet another thing I don't know how to do properly.
If "no pants" means "naughty bits flying in the wind", then no socks is good advice. "Many a man has fallen victim to the sock gap".
