I recently resumed my drawing and painting lessons, and I want to tell you about color combinations. In any situation when it comes to color, there are good and bad combinations of shades. Whether it's a manicure or clothes, a drawn card or even a home renovation, it's always important to choose a beautiful and interesting color combination.
With regard to clothing, this is even more important, if you can paint your house and your favorite bedroom in any shades you like, and invite only loved ones there, then clothing is the most important social tool that allows us to form the first opinion about each other, and therefore we cannot allow your clothes said the wrong thing about you. How to choose good shades and choose interesting pairs? What are the rules about this? How to choose any tones with shine?
A little theory
The easiest way to choose the right shade is to use a color wheel. It is divided into 12 sectors and represents the primary colors. Also, each sector is graduated from light (in the center) to dark (along the edge). What can we deduce from this circle?- White harmonizes with absolutely any tone and makes it brighter.
- Black will help dilute any ensemble and at the same time give it depth.
- Complementary and similar color neighborhoods are visible.
- You can derive triads, tetrads and squares.
This is a good combination, and most often many clothing lines use it - they produce the same models in complementary shades, and then if you buy a purple blouse, you can always choose a pistachio skirt to go with it (and vice versa).
Similar pairs- those that stand next to each other on the color wheel. Such pairs are often found in architectural compositions. Surely you have seen when a house is painted light lemon, and the architectural elements - slopes and cornices, balustrades and architraves - are green. This solution is also found very often in accessories - for example, it is much easier to find yellow shoes with orange trim than yellow ones with blue or purple.
Triads, tetrads and squares are patterns that are drawn according to a special shape on the color wheel. For a triad it is a triangle, for a tetrad it is a rectangle, and a square speaks for itself.
Look at different color wheels to understand the principle, and you will never go wrong in choosing the right shade.
Neutral
Neutral colors are called black, white and gray - they go with almost everything and look good together. However, it should also be taken into account that a person dressed in black or gray from head to toe is bad manners; monochrome outfits have long become a sign of bad taste. IN summer period It is appropriate to be dressed in white from head to toe, but here accessories - a bag, shoes, bright jewelry and details - can help maintain the brightness.Any combination of gray should be well balanced. As a rule, fabrics or accessories of a pure gray shade are rarely found on sale; most often the color has a cold or warm undertone. Accordingly, when choosing color combinations with gray, you need to look at:
- to the warmth of gray;
- on the warmth of the selected color;
- on the lightness of two shades and their compatibility.
Warmth of Gray
Gray can be warm or cool.
Warm shades are best combined with warm tones - yellow, orange, red, pink, crimson.
Cool gray looks perfect if you add blue, lilac, green or blue to it.
The warmth of the chosen color
Even yellow can be cold. It is best to choose those paints whose temperature corresponds to the main temperature of the color. Warm yellow and cool blue look good with cool gray.Lightness
This is the position that the chosen color would occupy on a stretch from darkest to lightest. It is best if the gray does not compete with his partner. Can't choose? Choose the brightest shades or pastel colors, and it is better to refrain from dark ones.
Warm
Warm colors on the color wheel range from yellow to violet. This is a pleasant range that lifts the mood and gives a feeling of warmth and light. However, choosing color pairs here is not so easy. Naturally, when I talk about the proximity of red or yellow, these are those combinations where the color I indicated is the main one (that is, it predominates visually).
The best combination of red is with white, blue and black. These are pure shades that were worn by kings and queens; this range (without black) is represented on the Russian tricolor and the flags of other states. Use pure shades, and then you can definitely be confident in your choice.
The combination is interesting burgundy color with shades of blue and gray. In general, any berry tones will suit burgundy. But it is better to choose green tones with a cool undertone.
Great combination Brown with beige - you get a pleasant chocolate combination. Shades of cocoa and coffee, tea and milk, pastries and ivory - many color combinations with brown evoke thoughts of desserts.
Naturally, warm tones go well together - brown and light orange look great together, and the combination of red, orange and yellow was once ultra-fashionable.
Want to add some flair to the combination? Try complex tones. Combine brown with plum, beige and blackberry, warm inky and cool turquoise. Yes, don't forget about the brown and mint color combination. The combination of mint and chocolate evokes thoughts of entertainment, pleasure and relaxation.
Do you like extravagance? Add some accessories in a deep shade - for example, cobalt blue will set off orange or pink well, and turquoise looks good against shades of yellow and green.
Cold
Cool colors are those from green to purple. These are shades of grass and water, cool and refreshing, they bring peace and tranquility. If you want to use cool shades in the interior, then it is best to give preference to bright, clean colors, the compatibility of which is very high with other colors.
The best combination for the home is dark blue with white and red. Moreover, red should be a highlight, there should not be a lot of it, but it’s better not to skimp on blue.
My favorite shade is turquoise, also called turquoise and Tiffany's favorite shade. Turquoise color goes well with a variety of shades. You can choose warm pink and rich orange, which can beautifully set off the turquoise color. An interesting combination of turquoise shade is obtained with coral - the reddish-red palette emphasizes the turquoise color well.
It's also worth trying the combination of blue color with cold yellow and light green tones, and blue will help to shade the green tones. In general, the combination of green with yellow and blue is classic for spring and spring holidays, so try to find your own solutions in this color scheme(and don't forget to look at the color wheel).
Try to pay more attention to the combination of green with other colors - this year the Panton company announced Greenery as the shade of 2017, so it would be a sin not to acquire a couple of green wardrobe items and buy some emerald jewelry for home. By the way, beautiful combinations You can choose colors with green online - the color palette will be created automatically.
Do you want to make interesting combinations? purple? Try light cool colors - lilac, pink, green. Don't like deep purple? Try mauve and lavender, and don't forget lilac.

Eye color and a person’s character are, of course, different things. But there is clearly a certain connection between them. Owners of one eye color or another have similar traits in their character. Therefore, eye color compatibility is determined by character compatibility. Well, let's start exploring...
Eye color and character
Before talking about the compatibility of people by eye color, it is necessary to consider common features character that is inherent in the owners of one or another eye color.
To see for yourself, just watch the brown-eyed individuals. Brown-eyed people have wit, are very sociable, and emotional. Also, people with brown eyes are quite hot-tempered and always get what they need. Owners of light brown eyes are characterized by such qualities as hard work, reliability, diligence and dreaminess.
People with green eye straightforward, very jealous, cunning, principled and categorical. They have a high temperament and are very passionate people.
Holders brown-green eyes very creative people, responsible, passionate and vulnerable. They tend to take events to heart and are prone to depression.
People with gray-green eyes and are characterized by such qualities as determination, strong will, cruelty and intractability.
Dark- grey eyes They distinguish their owner by courage, quick temper and rancor, stubbornness and focus on results.
Blue-eyed people are characterized by excessive sentimentality, touchiness, mood swings and capriciousness.
Thus, it would be wrong to deny the connection between eye color and a person’s character. However, our judgments about a person solely based on their eye color can be very erroneous.
Who is allowed and who is not allowed?..People meet, people fall in love, get married... Everyone chooses a life partner according to certain personal criteria - beauty is important for some, intelligence for others, and others study compatibility by eye color. Well, this happens too.
Brown and green, gray-green eyes - compatibility
Sexual compatibility of brown and green eyes in such a tandem will be especially successful. Both partners are distinguished by sufficient temperament, sensuality and responsibility towards each other. They successfully complement each other in many matters; there is every chance of a long and happy marriage.
Brown and blue eyes - compatibility
Sexual compatibility of partners is subject to instability and differences in interests. Brown-eyed people can be annoyed by the apathy and indecision of a blue-eyed partner. The first need emotions and communication, while blue-eyed people have their head in the clouds and indulge in dreams. A short and not very successful union.
Blue and green eyes - compatibility
A green-eyed jealous person likes to have patronage over a dreamy and open-minded blue-eyed partner. At the same time, the latter is not required to show excessive emotionality in relationships. In their tandem they complement each other perfectly.
Blue and gray eyes - compatibility
The union is dubious, but you can try. However, the lighter the gray shade of the eyes of one of the partners, the better the compatibility will be. Otherwise, the owner of dark gray eyes may show tyranny towards a weak-willed blue-eyed partner. The latter will not like pressure and harshness. Blue eyes, in terms of compatibility with the opposite sex, should be ready to give in and try to show a more “earthly” character. Not everything 
time to fly in the clouds!..
In terms of sexual and psychological compatibility green and brown eyes, or rather, their owners have more advantages, thanks to their positive qualities character. Sociability and self-confidence, charisma and wit always attract and make you want to be around such people.
Whatever your eye color, your character can always be adjusted, if desired, of course. What can I say, even the color of your eyes can be changed by choosing colored lenses. If you want to look at the world “with different eyes,” allow yourself this little prank and experiment.

We are often tormented by the question of whether people have eye color compatibility. After all, eyes say a lot about a person. From them you can immediately learn something about a stranger. Take a closer look at the color of your lover's eyes and try to predict how long your relationship will last, or maybe you are not compatible in eye color at all.
What can you say about brown-eyed people?
Two people with brown eyes are unlikely to get along together. They are both quite selfish people. Such a union will not be very strong, since the compatibility of eye colors is completely absent. They are always trying to trip each other up. But there is also a positive moment: in the fight against common enemy these two will become the best allies. If one of the partners has green eyes, then the relationship will develop favorably. He will try to calm down the restive brown-eyed one, and he will try to reveal his partner. But the owner of green eyes must occupy a leading position so that the union lasts as long as possible.
Otherwise, both partners will only suffer. Good compatibility people by eye color with someone who has blue eyes. You certainly won't get bored with him. They bicker and joke all the time, but if the relationship is true, then the partners will be able to live a long and happy life together. Gray with brown - perfect compatibility by eye color. Everyone is equal here. But in such a relationship loving people It is unlikely that you will be able to open up completely. But in general work they will become the most the best team. The gray-eyed one will show his confidence and wisdom, and the brown-eyed one will back everything up with his courage.
Let's talk about green eyes
If both partners have this eye color, then their relationship will be completely harmonious. They will definitely share the most precious things with each other. But very soon their connection will be interrupted, as the spouses will simply become bored. You can tell each other everything that worries you and be completely honest. However, if there is no movement in such an alliance, then you will simply get bored of each other. If the other partner is blue-eyed, then such compatibility in eye color will never be more than just friendly. Such people should not meet very often if they want long relationship. When one of the couple has gray eyes and is the leader in their union, the relationship can become quite long-lasting. These two people are always ready to help each other and inspire each other to new exploits. Such compatibility in eye color is considered ideal, if you do not give in to emotions that have a detrimental effect on the relationship.
What about blue-eyed people?
Partners with this eye color have the best chances of a good relationship. They live together quite easily and are the closest people to each other. Even if they break up, they continue to communicate with each other. If one of the partners has gray eyes, then they can live together, but the blue-eyed one must lead. Such a relationship will be carefree and romantic. If both have gray eyes, such a union can only be a working one. There is little romance in this relationship, but friendship knows no boundaries.
