Ask Angie: Color conundrum

It's for my sisters senior prom next week, her date wants to wear a royal blue suit with a teal tie because that's the color of her gown. Do you think it would go? Her dress has silver detailing and she is going to wear a scoop neck silver necklace. Do you think that her date would be better suited to a silver tie or a teal tie?

I don't, and think they can live in harmony. The couple's outfits sound smashing.

Not at all. I love wearing those colors together.

I was curious to know if they clash too. My glasses have royal & teal sort of ombre'd in as the colors blend from blue to green, so I figured there was probably a way to wear them together & make it look purposeful rather than having the colors fight. So, I'm glad to learn from Angie & other YLF'ers that they work together, & the prom colors sound fun! I Googled royal blue and teal & this royal blue, teal, & coral wedding color combo came up (see color combo #6)--I really like all the different blue/green tones together, & the coral sets them off nicely. https://www.everafterguide.net.....4mde04gpqx

Thanks guys! She's so happy to hear that you think the colors won't clash. So for her dates tie, would you opt for silver or teal?

I think a teal tie sounds lovely, but will she be wearing any royal blue? An entire suit in that colour may stand out next to her if she isn't wearing that colour at all...?
