Color combinations
There really aren’t that many harmonious combinations of other shades with blue. Having excluded all overly catchy and contrasting combinations, so as not to look shocking, the line of colors ideal for blue can be reduced to light pastels, strictly contrasting and natural.
With white
This classic tandem can be applied to any outfit that has at least a small blue detail. The most common use of the blue-white duo of varnishes is stripes. They are made horizontally, vertically, diagonally, their width can also vary. Other effects and designs cannot be excluded - flowers, geometry, gradient, moon manicure, French - all this is successfully used to decorate nails. The photo shows some variations in the use of two varnishes.
With yellow
Yellow and blue not only complement each other perfectly, but also significantly enhance each other, making the color richer and deeper. Therefore, you should try to avoid using them in equal quantities - a blue manicure will look very stylish if some small details are done in yellow (photo). In addition, the combination of blue and yellow is very common in nature, and this can also be reflected in a manicure by applying bright flowers on a blue background.
With red
This is another winning combination obtained through contrast. Here it is necessary to take into account the temperature of shades of both blue and red colors. You can take them in any proportion, performing the most unimaginable designs on your hands - craquelure, British or American flag, geometric shapes. You can get more ideas by looking at the photo.

The use of juicy fresh greenery is ideal for an outfit of the same tonality; blue in this case will dilute the excess of green.
