Choosing The Right Jacket Color
15th Jun 2015
Jackets are a timeless article of clothing that are versatile and can often be beautiful. They keep you warm, can finish off a gorgeous outfit, or can even add a pop of color. There are jackets for any season, and with many different styles to choose from, finding one that you love is sure to be possible. However, one of the struggles of finding the perfect jacket is finding the right color for you. Should you go with an olive green or a bright red? What about that stunning baby blue or the classic light pink. With so many jacket colors out there, how could you ever find what you are looking for? Well, it is actually much easier than you might think. You simply have to find what you love.
Ask Questions
No matter what you buy, you should always ask questions—especially when it comes to color. Ask yourself what you want to say with this jacket and how you want people to perceive you. Ask yourself about the outfits you will wear it with or where you will be wearing it. Answering these practical questions will stop you from getting swept away by so many options and help you choose the perfect color for you. Some questions you can ask yourself include:
- Where will I be wearing this most? To the office? Out with friends?
- Which color blends well with most of my wardrobe?
- Do I want to stand out or draw attention to myself?
- Do I want to be timeless or edgy?
- Am I willing to take a risk with a color or pattern I’m not used to?
These questions will help you decide what you are comfortable with and what is out of your comfort zone, hopefully leading you down the path to the perfect color.
Take a Look at Your Existing Wardrobe
Your jacket should be a fashion statement and bring out your personality, but it should also match your existing fashion choices. Think about your wardrobe. Is it mostly classic black and white? Do you own a lot of bright colors? Do you prefer natural colors? No matter how drawn you are to that bright red jacket, if your wardrobe is full of natural colors, do you really like it? Your existing wardrobe colors are often what you like to wear and what you think you look good in. Use these as a guide for picking the color of your jacket.
What Are You Drawn To?
Sometimes we love things that just don’t make sense. When picking a jacket color you might assume you will hate green but suddenly find yourself eyeing up that lovely olive colored jacket in the corner of the store. If you’re drawn to it, try it on! Look at yourself! Do you still love it? Then it’s probably your color.
