What Colour Bottoms to Wear with Burgundy Blouse

The best bottom colours to wear with a burgundy blouse are navy, grey and khaki. Burgundy adds depth to navy without shouting; common in autumn tailoring. Beige, white, cream and black also work. Be careful with light blue: wide-leg jeans are more casual than a blouse, so the pairing only works in a deliberately mixed outfit. Colour-wise it works: burgundy and light blue can work together if a neutral anchors the outfit.
