Take a tip from Prada for an inspirational color scheme…

Sure, colors seem to be easily paired when you stay within the same color family. Black, gray, and white seem to righteously feel natural together like the yin to its yang. Same can be said with the uprising of bold, bright colors in the latest happening trend. Of course, it’s easy when mixing and matching colors within the same family. But are you ready for your color pair dare?

Just as easily said than done, mixing within the same family is simple. Mixing blue with green is a cinch because they both are members of the same cool family. The same can be said with pairing red and orange which are both warmer shades.

Colorful Bonus: Mixing colors is also a budget friendly tactic in keeping your style fresh without hurting the bank. How’s that possible? Well, rather than having to spend more greens on a new article of clothing, mixing and matching pieces that are already in your wardrobe in unlikely color pairings can help your style remain bold, fierce, and fresh.

Some of my favorite (but often overlooked) color couples include:
