XO Grey Fox

Colour combinations 3 - blue and black shades

Thursday, 5 January 2012

I found this magpie's wing while walking the dog. Look how well Mother Nature has combined blue and black.

OK, we think of black and blue as bruising, but different shades of black (grey, charcoal) and blue go well together in any setting from formal business suit/shirt/tie/shoes combination through to blue jeans with black or charcoal knitted top.  Give it a try, particularly for a smart/casual look.
