We completely understand that some curvy women shy away from bright and bold color.  Some of us just really enjoy a more muted look and black is everything.  If you’re new to the world of color, choosing coral accessories over fabric is a great place to start.  Choose a coral statement bangle or necklace.  This will pop against a more subtle look and of course, keep you on-trend.

Pair with Gold

Coral is a beautifully stunning color that stands out and is perfect for just about every Summer look. Pair your coral pieces with gold elements for a glammed-up style. If you’re wearing a lighter-toned coral top, choose a bold gold skirt to pair it with or white bottoms and gold sandals.  The contrast will be gorgeously warm, and you’ll immediately have a beach-ready, island vibe about you

Complement with Turquoise

If you’re rocking a one-piece outfit or wearing multiple shades of coral to create one matching look, accessorize with turquoise.  Color theory suggests that colors completely opposite one another are pleasing together.  Coral and turquoise work together while being opposite one another just as orange and blue do.  If you’re looking for a color to break up these bold colors and have a more muted look, throw in a splash of grey.  All three will work well together, creating a beautifully composed look.

Wear with White
