What color to wear with blue pants

[Vladimir Berkov]

What color sweater would look good with navy blue pants? Red? Yellow? Purple? I am at a loss here.

Color Wheel

If you look at a color wheel you'll see that the complimentary color to blue is orange.

But any color that has a tinge of orange in it like a dark rust to a light pumpkin color to an autum leaf brown will go well with blue. Basically anything earthy. It also boils down to what your prsonal preference is and what will go with your style. But, that's just my two cents.

I would usually wear a brown or darker navy. Even a darker red would go, I think.

You'd be surprised how well a strong yellow and mint green go together.

I usually combine reds and blues. I have several ties with both colors in them. They're quite striking.

Blue and orange for some reason conjures up images of advertising / packaging from the 1970s, or school sporting colors. I'm sure it can be pulled off, though.

Blue and Orange - The Denver Broncos pull the combination off rather well. Now, if they could just put away teams by the end of the game instead of letting their lead slip away...

But that's a different topic.

Yes, my blood runs blue and orange.
