## Colors that go with #cb57a3

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 #cb57a3 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 #cb57a3: its slight blue cast keeps type crisp beside a warm colour where pure #000 looks heavy. Seen in: Hasbro (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/hasbro-com). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/charcoal
- **Olive Drab** #6b8e23 [harmony: split] — Olive Drab is a split-complement of #cb57a3: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/olivedrab
- **Denim** #1560bd [pool] — Designers have shipped Denim with #cb57a3: two real palettes: Maybelline's brand system and Hasbro's brand system, as the accent. Seen in: Maybelline (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/maybelline-com), Hasbro (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/hasbro-com). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/denim

- **Olive Green** #808000 [harmony: triadic] — Olive Green completes a triad with #cb57a3 — three hues spaced evenly round the wheel, the classic way to get energy into a palette without a clash. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/olive
- **Indian Red** #cd5c5c [harmony: analogous] — Indian Red is #cb57a3'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/indianred
