A few weeks ago I wrote a post about Iman and Kristen Stewart looking amazing in bright coral dresses. Ever since I’ve seen coral pieces all over the place. Clearly it’s a huge trend for spring and actually a lot more versatile than you might think. Don’t be intimidated by its brightness, its impact totally depends on what you pair it with. For instance, white or black is just going to make bright coral look brighter. Try these unexpected combinations instead:
Coral and Army Green
This earthy green color acts as a neutral—like khaki or brown—and doesn’t pick up the red tones in coral that can make it look muddy.

Coral and Raspberry
Though similar, these two shades actually work to neutralize each other. The effect is dramatic without being polarizing.

Coral and Seafoam
This pale greenish-blue shade is another huge trend this season. Together, this combo feels cool and beachy.
