Color Theory for Newbies
Nothing says summer quite like the return of a more colorful wardrobe—with bright, unabashed shades from all corners of the color wheel. That said, now's the perfect time for a refresher on color theory. From creative combinations that capture the playful spirit of the season to tonal dressing with dimension, explore three Argent-approved styling ideas to experiment with this summer.
LOOK 1
Pair Back to White
When in doubt, any bold hue pairs back to something white. Our favorite example? The combination of our vibrant orange Wide Leg Trousers and summer’s perfect white Pocket Tee—a look that's both bold and understated. Complete with coordinating flats and accessories in a grounding, neutral shade.
Styled with a Heaven Mayhem necklace, Jimmy Fairly sunglasses, a Dragon Diffusion handbag, and Dear Frances flats.
LOOK 2
Reach Across The Color Wheel
We can’t talk color theory without highlighting the most unlikely of complementary shades. Located on opposite ends of the color wheel, fuschia and grass hues come together in a lively pairing with our Slim Blouse and Wooster shorts. Style with mules, a shoulder bag, not-so-classic pearl earrings, and other touches of dainty jewelry.
Styled with Lele Sadoughi earrings, Tony Bianco sandals, and an Aurate bracelet.
LOOK 3
Blend Light and Dark
Achieve a sophisticated tonal blend by balancing softer shades of green with deeper tones—our Pistachio Tank and Pine Needle Straight Leg Trouser, to be specific. Finish the look with a sleek carry-all, loafers, and belt for a flawless execution.
Styled with Lele Sadoughi earrings, a Marisa Leather belt, Freda Salvador loafers, and a Mansur Gavriel handbag.
