108 ways to wear 8 colors – even lazy people can look sophisticated.
"I buy so many clothes, but I never know how to put them together." — A lazy person's diary
Edited by: Patrick Star (I'm not lazy)
Opening my closet, without even rummaging through it, I realized I seem to only wear black, white, blue, and khaki. Summer's here, how can I possibly create any interesting looks with these colors?
So now the question is, what color combinations are pleasing to the eye and create a natural look? Can blue really not be paired with green? Of course not! Is red and green really unpleasant to look at? Absolutely!
Today we're going to recommend four color combinations for outfits, providing the easiest solution for those who struggle with choosing colors, don't have time to choose colors, or are too lazy to choose colors.

Brown ft. Dark blue
The combination of these two colors is incredibly familiar to men. Who can honestly say they've never paired brown leather shoes with a dark blue suit? Those who haven't, go stand in the corner...

Although the combination of these two colors has become somewhat cliché, in the Spring/Summer 2015 season, from E Tautz (top row 1 & 2) to Fendi (top row 3), Prada (bottom row 1 & 2) to J. Crew (bottom row 3), they still wanted to make some fun with brown and blue.

We noticed that this season, many designers decided to use brown on the upper body and dark blue on the lower body.
Completely separating the two colors creates a strong contrast, resulting in a simple yet striking aesthetic.
Brown and dark blue outfits
For a long time, we've thought brown was only for shoes, but look at how bold designers are this summer! What reason do you have not to try wearing brown? Actually, like navy blue, a brown suit is suitable for most formal occasions. Recommendation: Brown suit + sky blue/white shirt + navy blue tie.

However, if you find brown suits too unappealing, you can try mixing and matching. A brown casual suit paired with dark blue dress trousers or indigo jeans is a good choice, and you can wear a white long-sleeved or short-sleeved T-shirt underneath. Or, if you need to look more formal, you can add a dark blue tie to connect the top and bottom.
Of course, the combination of brown and blue isn't limited to a brown top and blue bottom; you can totally reverse the colors. A dark blue polo shirt paired with brown linen pants would be a great look. Don't forget to add a pair of brown slippers for a coordinated look.
- Blue ft. Green -
Contrary to its previous unpopular image, the blue and green combination has absolutely taken center stage this spring and summer. Baartmans and Siegel, Gieves & Hawkes, and Hackett have all launched their own blue and green collections.

British high-end ready-to-wear brand Baartmans and Siegel (left column) opted for darker shades of blue and green. An olive green overcoat was paired with a dark blue shirt and dark green trousers; a simple dark blue T-shirt was paired with a dark green jacket and derby shoes, both perfectly suited to the local summer weather, which wasn't exactly warm.
British royal luxury brand Gieves & Hawkes (pictured) did not focus on blue-green suits. Instead, they chose casual wear as the main target of blue-green this season, using dark blue throughout and green as an accent.
Hackett (right column in the image) focused on tailoring his suits—from forest green trousers paired with a dark blue double-breasted casual jacket; to a glossy green long-sleeved jacket paired with cobalt blue shorts.

If you want to add some other colors besides teal, I suggest you choose light colors; white and gray are good choices.
- Khaki ft. White -
Khaki and white are common combinations in everyday life. Unlike the equally classic white and blue pairing, khaki and white have a slightly wilder feel. However, this season, designers are constantly subverting classic styles, creating a continuous stream of best-selling pieces!

This year, CK (left column) added some more flair to khaki and white. In addition to khaki overcoats and white T-shirts, they also boldly used bright colors and sneakers in their outfits.
Richard James (pictured), a "young" fashion brand known for its bold cuts, clearly drew inspiration from the jungle this season. Did the images conjure up images of the American blockbuster "Indiana Jones"?
GUCCI (pictured right), which has been aggressively discounting inland, also launched khaki and white outfits earlier under the leadership of former menswear design director Frida Giannini. The double-breasted trench coats and navy shirts have a strong military style.

A white shirt, khaki pants, and dark shoes with a stylish design are all eye-catching combinations.
- Black ft. White -
Everyone says black and white goes with everything, and we all have countless black and white clothes in our wardrobes. But we don't usually have many opportunities to wear black and white together. However, the recent trend of black and white outfits started by various professional athletes has made every fashionista a little tempted by the black and white panda color scheme.

In the summer of 2015, Givenchy (left column) and Parisian brand Balmain (right column) both embraced the black and white color scheme. Both brands created ready-to-wear garments in pure black and white, paired with sporty shoes and other accessories, resulting in a striking color contrast.
Emporio Armani (pictured), Giorgio Armani's younger secondary line, has launched a relatively sophisticated black and white suit collection. A pure black suit paired with a white T-shirt and flats, or a boldly striped top with black trousers, are key elements of Emporio Armani's latest collection.

For many of us, summer doesn't mean three or four months of good weather. The black waterproof jacket in the middle of the picture above is the perfect choice for rainy days.

The VINCE tie-dye T-shirt on the far left in the picture above is definitely the most eye-catching piece to pair with a black and white casual outfit.

Black and white suits are usually quite boring, but you can consider going against the grain and trying a white casual suit jacket to transform into something like a "white horse website".
