Change WooCommerce Colors
There are three common ways you can change colors in WooCommerce that I will illustrate in this post and guide you on how you can make a custom-looking WooCommerce store by changing the colors to match your design or the color scheme.
The following are the ways you can change WooCommerce colors :

The best way to change WooCommerce colors using the theme options is to check the premium theme documentation that will guide you on how you can change the colors of the WooCommece elements which may include the button colors, link colors, and much more.
There is also another option to change the color using the customizer option that is common in most WordPress themes and you can access the WooCommerce theme customizer options by navigating to the Appearance > Customize option as shown in the image below :
Under the customizer option, you can change the colors to reflect the colors you want in your store. This is the easiest way you change WooCommerce colors since this allows you to have a preview of the way the site will look before you can save the changes.
Not all themes come with this option but it is available in most themes that are premium and good quality themes bought from the most popular WordPress theme marketplaces.
Change WooCommerce Colors via the Customization Plugins
There are several free and premium WooCommerce customization plugins that extend the customization options of the WooCommerce plugin to include the customization of colors and typography.
Most of these plugins will also allow you to define your own classes and add suitable styles that will be reflected in the front.
