Shades of blue can vary from azure to dark, which allows you to choose an option for any woman. So, a dark blue coat is perfect for dark-haired women, and those with blond hair will look chic in the rich tones of this color. In this review, we have collected current recommendations from stylists on what to wear with a blue coat and what color to choose accessories.

Blue coat rules

When planning such a purchase, the first thing you need to do is decide on the style of the product. The style directly depends on what the outerwear will be combined with in the future. The pressing question of what to wear it with does not have a clear answer, but there are some nuances that should be taken into account.

Length ratio of outerwear and skirts:

Universal rules:

1. A knee-length coat (slightly higher or lower) allows the hem of the dress or skirt to show no more than 10 cm.
2. The coat goes well with shoes with heels. In some cases, models with flat soles are used, but then you should wear tights that match the shoes.
3. Skinny jeans and fitted trousers go with any style of coat, but if you wear wide-leg trousers, the outerwear should be made in the style of a cape or overcoat.
4. The hem of the coat should be 13–15 cm above the edge of the shoes or slightly cover the boots (with a slouch).

The cut must be chosen based on the proportions of the figure. A tweed product is combined with clothes made of smooth material.

Extravaganza of color

Once you have decided on the style and the rules have been taken into account, you should choose the shade of the coat: ultramarine, rich blue, azure, sky blue, etc. Among the blue color palette, there is exactly one that suits you. Choosing a tone is simple: apply the selected fabric to your face, if the shade refreshes your face, you have made the right choice.

The main thing that every woman is interested in before buying a blue coat is which color scheme is more beneficial for combination with other clothes and accessories.

Recommendations by color combination:

• Blue color is not inferior in versatility to black and gray. It is equally combined with white, shades of red, the same black color, as well as lilac, yellow and beige.
• The most advantageous color for accessories is, of course, black or red. For example, long gloves and shoes perfectly complement the look.
• Elegant hats in lilac and soft blue colors go well with coats.
• Terracotta color in shoes and accessories can be safely combined with blue outerwear.
• White and black go with blue in any design.

It’s quite easy to create a bright, interesting and stylish look using a blue coat.

The priority when choosing clothes is one rule: do not overdo it in the number of colors.

Coat style

The choice of style depends on your preferences in images.

Shoes, bag, accessories

A fashionable blue coat combined with an interesting and original addition will create a fresh look. To do this, you need to call on shoes and bags, scarves and hats, belts and gloves as assistants. When choosing the tone of blue, you should understand that restrained shades can be enriched with red and emerald accessories, and the rich blue color of the coat will be successfully combined with black or white.

Let's consider the most successful combinations:

But do not forget that the optimal solution is shoes that match the coat or match other details.

A hat, especially in cold, damp weather, is necessary. For blue outerwear, you should choose it depending on its style:

• The classic cut can be paired with knitted berets, an 80s-style hat or a sock hat.
• For wide shoulders, the best option would be a voluminous hat in a pastel or white color.
• Women with curvy figures are recommended to focus on hats.

Speaking about such an accessory as a belt, it must be emphasized that it is appropriate for fitted or flared coat models. It is better to match the color of the belt to your shoes.

Leading stylists of European fashion houses shared little tricks regarding the shades of a blue coat in combination with accessories:

Unsuccessful ideas, according to stylists, are:

1. Medium length blue coat with a narrow skirt.
2. Combining red tones with blue, as this is a rather extravagant solution. Give up the rich red color in favor of a restrained shade.
3. Choosing a purple complement to a blue coat. In this case, you should prefer accessories of a darker color.

If the choice fell on bright contrasting colors, then you must remember that such an ensemble must contain a third color. For example, blue outerwear, yellow skinny trousers and black shoes and bag. Thanks to the participation of a third color, the bright blue and yellow look will look a little softer.

Shades of Prussian blue, indigo and ultramarine smoothly migrated from the catwalks to the city streets. Fashionistas and stylish things donned coats of all shades of blue - from the lightest and palest to neon-bright, from pastel to dark.

The advantages of a blue coat can be listed endlessly: it looks unique against the backdrop of black outerwear, traditionally chosen for the demi-season, makes even the most boring look bright and memorable and, finally, lifts your spirits.

Foreign fashion bloggers and Russian beauties who follow fashion make their own notes on how to wear this moderately classic, moderately avant-garde item of clothing. In our material you will find general rules and recommendations and advice from stylists.

Happy shopping!

When choosing a new item in a store or on the website, you should first decide on the style, color, and combination with existing wardrobe items. A blue coat, depending on the design, can be either modest or extravagant, and some nuances should be taken into account to ensure that the purchase brings only positive emotions.

• You should choose a thing based on whether it suits you or not. Even if this is the latest fashion, but the coat wrinkles, does not fit the figure well or violates the proportions of the body, then it is better to think about whether the coat is worth the candle?
• When making a purchase in a regular store, you always have the opportunity to try on an item and understand whether it fits or not. In the case of online stores, the situation is different, therefore, when purchasing a coat from trading platforms like Aliexpress, you need to carefully study the information under the top section: everything will be written there about the exact size, as well as photographs of what the item looks like in real life will be published. And don't forget to pay attention to product reviews.
• The material also plays a big role. For autumn, the optimal ratio is 50, 60 or 70% wool to synthetic or viscose, for winter - from 80% wool to 100%. The highest quality and most durable items, of course, are items made from pure wool. Cheaper materials can quickly go into pellets and lose their presentation.
• The purchased coat should be stored properly. If it is not the season, then it is treated with a special deodorant for clothes, and a moth repellent is placed in the pocket. A long plastic cover is placed on top.

We wear a blue coat. A little theory

In order for the new item to fit your figure and combine with other elements of the image, you should follow a number of recommendations from stylists:

1. If you wear mid-thigh length dresses, the coat can be any length, from mini to maxi.
2. A long dress will look perfect with a cape (coat-cape) or with a long coat, the hem of which will be 5-10 cm shorter than the dress. Then the figure will look incredibly slim.
3. Minimalistic, androgynous and normcore styles suggest a looser cut of the coat. Choose from 1920s-inspired silhouettes, robe coats of any length, or kimono-style short coats that can be worn without a belt or with a flirty obi. The best option for shoes is with high flat soles, revealing the ankles, with an unusual finish: men's style shoes, creepers and brogues with perforations.
4. For office style, it is better to choose classic fitted coat silhouettes that are slightly longer than a skirt or dress. The look can be completed with a silk scarf around the neck or in the top pocket of a coat and ankle boots.
5. A midi coat allows the dress or skirt to be no more than 10 cm below the hem of the coat.
6. A blue coat goes best with black tights or stockings if you wear skirts. You can also follow the rule: tights match the shoes.
7. Skinny trousers and skinny jeans look good with any coat style, but they must match each other in style.
8. A floor-length robe coat will look great with palazzo pants and a white blouse.

The most important rule is that the style of the coat must correspond to the proportions of the figure. Those with an hourglass silhouette are ideally suited to fitted models in the style of the 50s, pears should choose a straight silhouette and avoid models that are tapered to the bottom, and rectangles should create a “waist” using visual effects on coats and darts.

What colors does blue go with?

Having decided on the style, you can move on to choosing a color that should be combined with other things in your wardrobe. It can be in harmony with them according to the principle of “opposites attract”, be contrasting, conflicting, or be emphatically neutral, or be from a suitable color scheme. Cool tones should be combined with other cold tones, warm tones with warm ones. In order not to overload the image, you should use no more than 3 colors.

Blue looks most versatile in combination with white, black, and combinations of these colors.

Blue will look advantageous with shades of red, both warm (carmine, scarlet, terracotta, coral, marsala) and cold (magenta, cardinal, carmine, purple). Another option is raspberry.

In contrast, blue looks good with yellow, especially if complemented with black, white, emerald or turquoise.

It goes well with beige, soft blue, cold light pink, lilac, burgundy, orange, lemon yellow, sand, chocolate, golden or silver shades.

Coat on style

What does fashion offer as style options?

• Business.

Characteristic features: Focus on classics. Very restrained style, no avant-garde details of modern designers. The coat resembles either a trench coat in silhouette, or has a straight cut. The length is not below the knee, so it is preferable to wear it with a skirt and heeled ankle boots.

• Everyday.

Characteristic features: The most versatile coat that will not conflict with other wardrobe items. Features neutral colors, either beige or black. May also have a sportier silhouette. Typically, it is either a straight or fitted coat without much detail. May have a hood or fur collar and cuffs.

• Urban.

Characteristic features: Focus on convenience, comfort, but at the same time modern design. Androgyny, men's fashion quotes. Color blocking, unusual darts and silhouettes from the 20s and 80s. Compatibility with any wardrobe items, versatility. The most preferred options: a coat-robe or kimono, a straight coat of any length, a coat with a high stand-up collar, a basic coat without H- or A-line details, a transformer or a double-sided coat.

• Romance.

Characteristics include flared sleeves or a dolman silhouette, ruched or ruffled details, embellishments, lace elements and a clear hint of Victorian or Edwardian European style. Unusual silhouette and length: this is either a waist-length cape or a maxi coat that makes the figure taller and slimmer. Looks great in combination with romantic dresses, breeches and white blouses with frills, evening trouser suits, cocktail dresses.

• Bohemian.

Characteristics: Loose silhouette, maxi or mid-calf length or poncho-like; patchwork details, ethnic embroidery, large, slightly floppy, pockets, embroidered or knitted elements. It will look great with other unusual things like a long flared dress or, conversely, a simple black turtleneck and skinny pants. Can be complemented with a wide-brimmed hat and Cossack ankle boots.

What can fashion and style experts advise women? Let's look at the main recommendations of domestic and foreign stylists.

• A coat in bright neon blue or electric blue can be combined with any thing, but the most successful would be the following: a black turtleneck and tapered trousers with a high waist with a belt, a white suit or leather trousers with a red turtleneck.
• A calm blue shade, which is reminiscent of the summer sky or a cornflower field, suggests combinations with various shades of brown and crimson, as well as beige. Any denim items will be an excellent addition to the created image.
• For romantic natures, it is recommended to complement the coat with a fur cape-collar, long leather gloves or mittens, and a wide-brimmed hat. A small handbag will suit a sophisticated look.
• Fashionable for several seasons now, the shade of blue-lilac harmonizes with shades of magenta, bright yellow and orange, as well as turquoise and emerald. You can try a bold experiment with color blocking and combine bright colors.
• Military-style coats in a dark blue color (shade “navy”) with cuffs, patties and large “running” buttons made of brass will look very stylish on slender girls.

A blue coat can be made of any material. It could be drape or pure wool, it could be indigo-colored denim that is fashionable beyond the seasons, it could be fur. By the way, a faux fur coat is an excellent option for both an evening look and a casual one, which can be worn with jeans and a white T-shirt or a turtleneck and a beanie hat.

A blue coat can also have a pattern. It is recommended for slender girls to wear small checks and horizontal stripes, and larger checks and vertical stripes for curvier girls. Jacquard coats are recommended to be worn as evening coats and paired with either leather trousers or a cocktail dress and high-heeled ankle boots.

To summarize, it should be clarified that a blue coat, chosen as outerwear, makes blue the base shade of the wardrobe, but it can be either an independent element or only an accent, an addition to the overall image.

The dark blue color in clothing has a lot of advantages: it is a noble shade, it calms and is associated with the depth of the evening sky. In addition, the color belongs to a neutral range, which means it goes well with many other colors. At first glance, it seems easy to determine what to wear with a dark blue coat. However, in practice, fashionistas have doubts, which they hasten to dispel.

Color combinations for a dark blue coat

Everything, grey, yellow, orange, goes well with dark blue. A coat is a large item that occupies a large area in an image. It must be supplemented, diluted with bright and light colors, otherwise the set may look gloomy, faded and boring.

On the other hand, too many rich colors also look strange for the autumn-winter period. Therefore, limit yourself to just one or take colors in minimal quantities, like yellow and in the skirt design in the photo below.

Selecting items to match the style of the coat

A straight-cut mid-thigh length coat looks good with black, gray and brown fitted trousers or wedges or heels. Such combinations emphasize the length of your legs and help you look slimmer. Fitted dark blue coats near the knee and straight models with a belt combine favorably with straight-cut skirts and flared silhouettes.

Special attention should be paid to a knee-length coat. For a woman of average and small size, wearing high-heeled shoes with it is a must, otherwise it may create a feeling of disproportionate figure. And you can combine long dark blue coats with both trousers and skirts.

Looks featuring a dark blue coat

A dark blue coat is an excellent choice when creating a basic outerwear wardrobe. Based on it, you can create a whole range of images suitable for different occasions. A trip to work, a romantic date, an evening out, a walk with friends - it will look appropriate and beautiful everywhere.

A set for every day can be completed with tight jeans, comfortable shoes, as well as a light turtleneck or blouse. Another option is to use natural shades of brown or green. For example, in combination with a dark blue coat, trousers and a colored bag will create a practical, and at the same time very stylish set.

To create a romantic set, you can use dresses and blouses with patterns. Combinations of light fabrics with delicate floral, plant, and fantasy patterns look very impressive. Optimal dresses and skirts are bell-shaped, a-line, and slightly peeking out from under the coat's skirt. For such a set, you should wear shoes or boots with heels and pick up a small handbag.

For going to work, you can choose non-contrasting color combinations. If a strict dress code is encouraged in the office, then the optimal ones would be
