"That Color is So You!"

Some people always look put-together. The color of their clothes flatter their skin tones, and the jewelry choice always looks just right. If you hold different colors next to your skin, you will see that some colors make you look better than others.

You will want to find out if your skin tones are "cool" or "warm". Cool skin tones have pink or blue undertones and look better with true white, rather than ivory, and any visible veins look blue. If you have warm skin tones, you will see an undertone of yellow, and you will look better in ivory than in stark white. Any visible veins will have a greenish cast. People - and skin tones - can be divided into "seasons," depending on their skin tone.

Winter and Summer are "cool" in tone, and they go best with colors in the blue half of the spectrum: blue-purple, purple, green-blue, and true blue. Spring and Autumn are "warm" in tone, and they go best with colors in the yellow half of the spectrum: orange-red, orange, yellow, and yellow-green.

A person can often be helped in determining which season best suits her by holding up various colors to her makeup-less face. It is best if this is done in natural light. Some colors will more flattering than others and give your face a look of extra energy.

Spring: Skin tones that are "Spring" will have undertones of golden and the complexion will be peachy or creamy. Spring people generally have straw-colored or strawberry-red hair, freckles, rosy cheeks, and blue or green eyes. People who have Spring skin tones look good in warmer colors such as golden-yellow, golden-brown, light brown and peach shades. Avoid dark, dull colors.

Summer: "Summer" complexions have blue or pink undertones. Skin is pale and pink. Summers are often natural blondes or brunettes with pale eyes. Summers should choose pastels and soft neutrals with rose and blue undertones. Lavender, plum, rose-brown, and soft-blue suit summers well, while black and orange do not.

Autumn: "Autumn" complexions have golden undertones. Many people who have red hair, or dark hair with gold-brown eyes will be in this group. Autumns should select colors with golden undertones, like camel, beige, orange, gold and dark-brown. Avoid colors with blue tones, like navy.

Winter: "Winter" complexions, like summer complexions, have blue or pink undertones. Skin can be pale white, yellowish-olive, or dark. People who have "winter" skin tones usually have dark brown hair and dark eyes. Many Asians and African Americans fall into this category. Winters should wear colors that are sharp, stark and clear. White, black, navy blue, red and shocking-pink all go well with winter complexions. If you want to wear lighter colors, stay away from pastels and lean toward icy color choices. Try to stay away from orange, gold and beige.

Find clothes and colors that look well on you and have fun adding a rich colored copper pendant, along with some dangly earrings. Have fun expressing yourself!
