Flashback Friday: Five Winning Color Combos




Spring fashion is right around the corner and I've got color on the brain! It's no secret that I am a color obsessed, so I decided to come up with a little cheat-sheet for you guys. Here are 5 of my favorite color combinations that you can replicate at home! Check it out and tell me - which color combos are your favorite? least favorite? (Click any of the photos to view them larger.)























This is a guest post for Julep. See it here. And if you like today's post - please share it!

Wow, those pictures are SO satisfying to look at!  A great tribute to color:)  I think my favorites ones above are probably the primary colors on top but I always love seeing what you do with red and pink/ purple and I love the camel and blue thing.  Keep the rainbow coming!

I love the monochromatic blues!  It's interesting that most of the elements of these outfits are solid colors (only a few patterned pieces scattered here and there), but they're still fun and exciting. Love the colorblocking!

Rachel said...

These are great ideas..thank you! My favorite is the red and pink! Beautiful and feminine :)

I love how you inspired me to mix colors together that I never would have! I wore blue/camel/mustard the other day.  Everyone told me how good it looked.  Thanks, J!

LOVE LOVE LOOOOOVE this post!!

My fave is red+pink & the primaries (but I do love the camel+blue as well).

Darlene said...

Love seeing all the color combos you have put together. I'm a fan of blue and green combinations, but red and pink are a close second.

cbakes said...

I've been such a black and brown girl for too long, and reading your blog has inspired me to step out of my box and mix in the colors. I still have a long ways to go, but thank you for all of your inspiration. My favorite combo is the Camel and Blue (again, I love brown), but I need to give the other combos a try because they look great and I need to keep challenging myself. Great outfit combos!

Love the camel and blue!

Fashion Whistle said...

Beautiful!  I love Red & the primary colors...BUT... I LOVE the Camel &  Blue!  

Juneli said...

All are awesome but my favorite happens to be the first one, Primary colors!! It is a deadly combo!! Love the Monochromatic blues and Yellow and green too!!
But if you tell me to pick my least fav one, it is going to be the Camel and blue, which, I can clearly see, is the most popular one!! I am so weird, don't you think so??

PinQue said...

So many great looks here! Color is just so much fun :)

 

Christy said...

LOVE this post! So helpful, thank you! I love all the combos, but am drawn to the pink/red and the camel/blue. I am definitely trying to incorporate colour into my often drab colour palette (black/navy/brown/grey...boooring) and this is such a useful tool for me. Thanks again! :)

Liz @ Southern Charm said...

LOVE this post!! I'm really feeling the yellow and green combos and the monochromatic blues! Is it spring time yet??

Rosa said...

I agree with everyone else, your blog is awesome and you give me so many ideas for outfits. Great job!

Dtormon07 said...

I especially love the green and yellow combos because it's less expected!

Olivia said...

camel + blue & yellow + blue, are my favorite! i'm always afraid to wear red + pink in fear of looking like Valentines Day

Catherine Du said...

Tiffany Elam said...

You always help me find more ways to use my closet!  Although I have seen most of these outfits from previous posts, organizing them by color group gave me a whole new perspective. Thank you for keeping my closet interesting, J!

jseverydayfashion said...

LOL no, you are not weird! I love hearing how people interpret art/fashion differently. :-)

zee said...

I love, love, love, the yellow & green combos.  Actually wore something very similar to your latest yellow & green look this week!  I don't think the colors would look as good on me, but you  look fantastic in the camel/blue combos as well!

Angie said...

Thanks for the post .It's a great help for every day women who juggle jobs, husbands akn kids.

Rosanna said...

Which color combos are my favorite and least favorite?............ How can I choose which part of the  *R.A.I.N.B.O.W.*  I like best??!!    (Haha!!)    I'm wearing more color now (thanks to dear you, J.!!);  but I honestly wish I would've STARTED Living A More-Colorful Life----(i.e., simply with my CHOICE of clothing colors!!)----a loooong time ago, because wearing beautiful, tasteful color combinations, (e.g., like you always style, Above), is REALLY like "Color Therapy" for your............ *heart*............ and *mind*............ and *soul*!!    'Makes ME feel good ~~~ 'Makes everyone AROUND me feel good, too!!

heidi said...

Chrissieb said...

LOVE this post! Such great inspiration! Particularly loving the cobalt blues and came/blue combos. Will save this for future reference.

Claire said...

I'm loving chartreuse and gray right now. The sorta yellow/greenish neon color with a neutral is sooo this spring :-) 

Alyson said...

You can wear color SO well, I wish I could rock the oranges and yellows but with my red hair it just seems to look silly. You have so much color in your wardrobe, I'm jealous :) thanks for the inspiration constantly! xoxo

Rachel J said...

Love this post!  I'm always looking for new color combinations to try.

WOW, I just found your blog tonight and am so inspired!  I love color as well, but have a hard time knowing how to make it work.  I love everything above.  The red/pink is my least favorite, for myself, but you wear it well.  Thank you for your tips and time you give us!

jseverydayfashion said...

Thanks so much Lisa and welcome to the blog! :-)

Swissmiss said...

After accidently stumbling upon your blog three days ago, I find myself coming back again...and again...and again! Unlike so many other fashion blogs where you barely see the same pieces twice, you do a great job of showing how to make the most of your closet.  It's inspired me to look at my own pieces in a whole new way. You making looking great so much more accessible. Keep it coming!!
