Suggested color roles

primary

A classic light pink #FFC0CB, excellent for primary buttons, logos, or hero section highlights, conveying sweetness and warmth.

secondary

A soft, cool blue #ADD8E6 that provides a pleasant contrast to the pink, suitable for navigation bars, subheadings, or background elements.

accent

This light, sunny yellow-cream #FAFAD2 can be used to add a touch of brightness and warmth, perfect for small icons, alerts, or decorative flourishes.

background

A very pale lavender #E6E6FA that offers a clean, airy canvas, making content pop subtly without being stark white.

text

Too light for body text. For main text, consider a soft charcoal like #444444 or black for readability.

Accessibility notes

  • Be mindful of low contrast when pairing light colors like #FFDAB9 or #FAFAD2 with #E6E6FA for text.
  • Ensure critical text elements use sufficient contrast, possibly requiring darker text (e.g., #333333) against the pastel backgrounds.
  • Use #FFC0CB or #ADD8E6 for larger headings or decorative elements, but not for small body text without contrast checking.
  • Test color combinations for readability, especially for users with visual impairments.
