## Colors that go with #fc4fae

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

- **Tomato** #ff6347 [harmony, pool: analogous] — Tomato is #fc4fae's neighbour on the wheel, so the two read as one family — use it for hover states, gradients and secondary surfaces. Seen in: Night Market (https://brandsweets.com/palettes/vivid#night-market), Sunset Boulevard (https://brandsweets.com/palettes/warm#sunset-boulevard), Airbnb (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/airbnb). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/tomato
- **Light Sea Green** #20b2aa [harmony: complementary] — Light Sea Green sits directly opposite #fc4fae 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/lightseagreen
- **Lime Green** #32cd32 [harmony: split] — Lime Green is a split-complement of #fc4fae: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/limegreen
- **Charcoal** #36454f [role] — Charcoal is the body-text near-black for #fc4fae: its slight blue cast keeps type crisp beside a warm colour where pure #000 looks heavy. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/charcoal
