It's universally flattering and appealing to men and women alike.With both warm and cool undertones, Turquoise pairs nicely with all colours in the spectrum. It adds a splash of excitement to neutrals and browns, compliments reds and pinks, creates a classic look with deep blues and livens up all other greens. Turquoise is especially trend setting with yellow-greens.
For brides wanting to incorporate it in their wedding, Turquoise can either make a statement that is elegant and dressy or casual and fun.
