11 of the Most Random But Incredible Summer Color Combos

by Lauren Eggertsen

It's summer. You promised yourself you would start wearing more color, but the truth of the matter is that you are really confused and don't even know where to start. Hello, and welcome to my Ted Talk. Today we are going to get granular on the color wheel and engage with out-of-the-box color combinations that are easy to re-create while still looking like you tried really hard (in a good way). Thanks to the world of social media, we have been able to spot not one, not two, but 11 new summer color combinations that are definitely random but still cool.

You'll see that the outfits ahead include some of this season's hottest colors, including slime green, bright fuschia, tangerine, and more… much more. Before you go on and get all intimidated by the wild summer color combinations listed below, remember that all it takes is two items to create the bold looks that these stylish women have. Additionally, if you don't own a specific set of the colors listed below, use the looks we selected to inspire you to combine some of the more obscure colors in your wardrobe to create even more random yet beautiful outfit ideas.
