Accent Colors:
“Your accent color will likely be used the least on your actual site. This is the attention-grabber that highlights the important things. Your calls to action and your powerful one-liners. This is the color you should really put the most time into, as it truly will set the rhythm for your brand. Once you have it dialed in, then select an alt accent color; this could be another color that compliments your main accent or just a darker or lighter shade of your accent color.” Source

Contrast Text Colors:
“Contrast or Text colors are great ways to create a design hierarchy with your text, borders, etc. Usually, these are the darker “gray” colors that determine the text color for your heading and main site text.” Source

Base Colors
“Your base or background colors are usually at the lightest end, white with two off-white variations that have just enough contrast to show a visual difference without having so much contrast that the text is lost in the color. Your base color is the color that people will notice the least, but if selected well makes all the rest of your colors come together,” according to the colors KadenceWP Help Doc.

Button Styles
As a general rule of thumb, these colors should only be used for calls to action on your site. Use this color when you want someone to click a hyperlink or button! Try not to use this color for accent colors or in any other part of your site design.
Your buttons will look like this if you choose the theme settings on a light background:
