Top Colours To Pair With Burgundy

When autumn arrives, there’s one colour that always steals the spotlight… burgundy. But the real abracadabra happens when you pair it with the right colours.

So, for a soft, feminine look, burgundy blends beautifully with cream, ivory, and dusty rose, creating a romantic and polished vibe.

Then you have camel brown, golden amber, or warm beige, which are all perfect for creating a warm and cosy vibe.

If a moodier or striking contrast is what you’re leaning towards, don’t worry, I gotcha! Forest green and charcoal grey bring depth and balance while keeping your outfit stylishly chic.

Overall, these 8 colours are your go-to palette for making burgundy shine this fall.

Take a quick note, and let’s get on to the outfits:
