Re: What color tops do you like to wear with light gray pants?

Gray is a good neutral. I can see a lot lot of colors working with it, either pastels like yellow or deep colors like a bright royal blue or a rich purple.

I probably would wear black with it to be honest, but that is just me. Smiley Happy

Another idea is to go to the Vivienne Files website and enter the word "gray" in the search box (upper left corner). It will bring up articles where gray has been used and matched to other colors, accessories, etc.

I've done that when there was a color I needed to work into outfits. I always find ideas there, and combinations I hadn't thought of.

My fav with any type of gray is pink..I am not a fan of yellow with gray though.

I just thought of another color that's a good match with light gray - mint green.

I have a mint green sweater from Talbots that I wore with gray pants all winter.

Gray doesn't require pastel colors, I wear it with brights and it looks great.

Like someone else, I consider gray a neutral. Light gray is my go-to color for "bottom" in the summer. I wear pink, all shades of a nice berry, pale yellow, pale blue, etc. I tend to wear silver jewelry with whatever color I choose.

Pink and Gray look so pretty together.

You could also try Black,Purple, blues,Navy, I can't think of a color that wouldn't look good with gray-its such a neutral color!!!!!

I think you can wear anything with light gray. If brights feel off to you, try less saturated versions of those colors: pale pink, light lavender, light blue, and pale aqua.

Re: What color tops do you like to wear with light gray pants?

Shades of pink/rose/purple are the usual go to partners for gray, but thinking outside the box, I think corals and yellow really bring life to light gray in spring and summer. Of course gray is a neutral, so there is no color which doesn't coordinate with it well.
