## Colors that go with #b569a3

Named partners (harmony on the OKLCH wheel, co-occurrence in curated palettes and brand systems, and the neutrals that carry it), best first:

- **Cadet Blue** #5f9ea0 [harmony: complementary] — Cadet Blue sits directly opposite #b569a3 on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/cadetblue
- **Charcoal** #36454f [role, pool] — Charcoal is the body-text near-black for #b569a3: its slight blue cast keeps type crisp beside a warm colour where pure #000 looks heavy. Seen in: Plaid (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/plaid-com). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/charcoal
- **Olive Drab** #6b8e23 [harmony: split] — Olive Drab is a split-complement of #b569a3: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/olivedrab

- **Medium Purple** #9370db [harmony: analogous] — Medium Purple is #b569a3's neighbour on the wheel, so the two read as one family — use it for hover states, gradients and secondary surfaces. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/mediumpurple
