Turquoise. Various bluish-green hues are reminiscent of the clear waters of the seas and oceans. When you see this color with aching tenderness, you remember the bliss in the arms of the sea waves, you palpably imagine the tickling of your feet with seaweed ... This color is universal. It suits everyone. After all, we all love the sea and are drawn to it, dreaming at least once a year to plunge into the abyss of their waters. Any woman, whether blonde or brunette, young or mature, will definitely attract attention by appearing in society in a turquoise-colored outfit. Note that even the word itself carries tenderness and affection.

The turquoise color of the clothes resembles a certain oriental tale. Such a color cannot be unnoticed, it is luxurious and simple at the same time, it is bright and unobtrusive at the same time, it is warm, but it does not at all resemble the yellow color. You also need to be able to combine it. It doesn’t suit everyone, it’s not always appropriate, the measure is important (after all, the color is very saturated, which means that only one turquoise will look hard).

Shades of turquoise may differ from each other, this point must also be taken into account. It is worth noting the fact that the color of turquoise has no age restrictions (for example, solid pink of certain shades is not always clear on older ladies). And it is easy to combine it with black or silver, white and even noble purple. Yellow and turquoise is just a sea and sunny fairy tale. And natural brown and green are just as appropriate next to turquoise shades.

The versatility of turquoise in that it is not only suitable for age, but will also give its charm to different types of appearance. It all depends on the shades of turquoise and the decorations that accompany the outfit. I tried to pick up girls in the photos different types appearance, so that the combination of turquoise for different girls is clearly visible.

• For brown-haired women with a pinkish complexion and dark eyes, light turquoise is suitable in combination with white shades or dark accents.
• For bright brunettes, turquoise in combination with gold will give an extra touch.
• Blondes will look even brighter even in a solid turquoise dress, you can add one or two more bright additions.
• And redheads feel great in turquoise, although for them the set must be diluted with other shades.



It is believed that turquoise is most suitable for people of warm appearance. Honestly, I still can’t define my appearance (I’m sure others do too). The thing is that I am against dividing into two types of appearance, because there are many more of them. The combination of skin tone, hair and eye color, as well as facial features - all must be taken into account. It turns out that each person, due to their uniqueness, simply needs to try on this or that outfit and then make sure of the right shade for sure.



Me (smiling). It's my favorite color and half my wardrobe is filled with turquoise.



In fact, the turquoise color has many shades that are in harmony with various color types of appearance.



For example, light turquoise color suits blondes. He emphasizes the aristocratic pallor of their skin and a little cold beauty.
