## Colors that go with #d26aae

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 #d26aae 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
- **Medium Sea Green** #3cb371 [harmony, pool: split] — Medium Sea Green is a split-complement of #d26aae: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement.

- **Taupe** #483c32 [pool] — Taupe is paired with #d26aae in 3 real palettes, including Meadow and Loom's brand system, as the text colour against it.

- **Charcoal** #36454f [role] — Charcoal is the body-text near-black for #d26aae: its slight blue cast keeps type crisp beside a warm colour where pure #000 looks heavy. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/charcoal
