Listed below are stylish ways women can enhance their everyday wardrobes for business success!

blue black

Every woman should have at least three pairs of black pants and skirts in her closets. Black bottoms are versatile and can be worn during the day or at night. They are classic pieces that never go out of style and are interchangeable when selecting different outfits. Black can also be combined with blue to make a great color combination. Although navy blue is a very conservative color, we suggest brighter, more intense blues like cobalt blue, teal, powder blue, or sky blue. Black and blue look wonderful on almost all skin tones and hair colors and can be worn all year long.

red and brown

Both earth tones, red and brown are great for the Fall/Winter season. It is warm and deep and looks great with various patterns and textures. The colors are very similar in tone and almost create a monochromatic look. The softness of the two colors complements the combination and does not clash or appear out of sync. Red and brown can even be mixed in patterns for clothing or designs for accessories. The best way to highlight these colors is to include gold details such as belts, earrings, brooches, and various pieces of jewelry.

purple and gray

Purple and gray are great to wear during the fall/winter season. They can be dressed up or down for day or night. This color combination looks great in pastel shades or in darker color intensities. Purple and gray look wonderful on almost all skin tones and hair colors. And it is best accented with silver accessories for belts, scarves, shoes, bags and jewelry. The combination of purple and gray can also look divine with various prints, such as floral, striped and tweed.
