What Colour Bottoms to Wear with Olive Blazer

The best bottom colours to wear with an olive blazer are navy, beige and black. Olive and navy are both muted, so they sit together without competing. Khaki, cream, grey and white also work. Be careful with light blue, brown and sage: jeans are more casual than a blazer, so the pairing only works in a deliberately mixed outfit. Colour-wise it works: olive is a neutral, so it lets light blue be the accent without clashing.
