The Allure of Purple Outerwear
Purple clothing can also be worn all year long, as long as it's paired with the right tones. For example, a bright violet or magenta color is a gorgeous look for casual outings while a delicate lilac or muted plum is just right for a night out. If your purple clothing leans more towards the red side of the spectrum, it’s better suited for wearing during the colder months of the year. Likewise, purple hues that are more along the lines of violet work best in spring and summer.
Colors That Pair Well With Purple
In general, colors directly opposite of each other, or colors that “contrast” each other, help to balance each other out. A few of the more obvious colors that compliment purple are yellow, orange, and green. However, you can also pair purple with similar shades such as pink and blue as these colors work well with each other. This combination also looks great when you choose bright colors or pastel shades. And of course, you can always mix and match neutrals like white, black, and grey to really make your purple clothing shine.
How to Style Purple Outerwear
Headed to an elegant dinner party? A dark purple peacoat worn with an oversized white sweater and a purple skirt is the way to go. Opt for white suede boots or heels to effortlessly enhance your chic ensemble.
If you want to create a cute and casual look, put on your favorite pair of blue skinny jeans and a purple top with your purple peacoat. Complete your look with a pair of black ankle boots or sneakers.
You’ll achieve stand-out style when you wear your purple outerwear with contrasting colors. To really make a statement, put a light purple vest on over a yellow long-sleeved shirt or sweater. You’ll likely want to choose dark-colored pants to offset your bright tops. If this is the case, you can put on a pair of grey or black pants with sneakers.
