One person can be slightly more dressed up, the others slightly more simple.

 

 

Examples:

 

  • Cream + denim + camel
  • Rust + cream + dark denim

Quick Rules That Always Work


  • Coordinate, don’t match. Pick 2–3 colors and let everyone wear different shades.
  • Choose a neutral base (cream, tan, gray, denim, navy) and add 1–2 accent colors.
  • Texture photographs beautifully: knits, denim, linen, corduroy, lace, suede.
  • Avoid: neon, big logos, characters, and super busy prints.
  • Limit patterns: one person in a pattern, everyone else in solids that match it.
  • Don’t go all green near trees. It blends fast.
