How to Wear Marsala on Great Day Houston

Perfect Pairing

True Marsala has earthy undertones. Pair them with rich hues like navy and mustard with neutral cream accents like these pieces from David Peck.

Keeping it Simple

With Marsala or nearly any color you are unsure of, start with neutrals. It’s a safe pairing and can be an easy go to combination.

Unexpected Match

Match Marsala with mint for an unexpected pairing. Keep the two colors in the same cool/warm family for a perfect complement. Add a neutral color like the trench to balance the contrast and complete the look.
