20 Easy Color Combos ANYONE Can Pull Off
About this video
McGoff presents a comprehensive guide to practical color combinations for men’s clothing, moving beyond color theory to show real-world outfit examples that work across different body types, skin tones, and styles. He covers combinations using blue, green, black, neutrals, and earth tones, demonstrating how to layer colors effectively for casual to formal wear.
Key takeaways
- McGoff recommends pairing analogous colors (neighbors on the color wheel like blue and green) and complementary colors (opposites like blue and burgundy) as reliable approaches to color coordination
- McGoff argues that contrast in shade matters more than the specific colors chosen—for example, monochromatic outfits work when you pair light and dark versions of the same color
- McGoff contends that black and white is an overrated combination that doesn’t work equally well for all body types and skin tones, and that black itself doesn’t go with everything despite popular belief
