*Colors that Compliment*

Have you ever wondered what colors look best on you? I know I have! As I have been exploring this topic I want to share what I have learned. I always love learning new things! (especially about fashion! ) :-)

When you talk to experts who advise women on which colors work best for them, you may hear terms like "warm" or "cool" in relation to your skin tone. But what do these terms mean?

Warm

You're probably a warm if you have:

  • Dark brown or black hair
  • Deep red or auburn hair
  • Reddish or golden brown hair
  • Brown or green eyes
  • Olive or golden skin
  • Beige skin
  • Skin which tans easily


Cool

Cool complexions are typically defined by:

  • Light to medium brown hair
  • Light green, hazel or blue eyes
  • Grey or blue-grey eyes
  • Natural blond hair
  • Fair or pale skin
  • Skin which burns easily

Once you have an idea of your skin tone, here are colors that compliment.

Warm complexions look best in:
  • Red
  • Peach
  • Orange
  • Golden yellow
  • Golden brown
  • Olive green
  • Gold jewelry

Cool complexions look best in:

  • Red
  • Pink
  • Blue
  • Teal

I hope you have as much fun with this information as I have had!!
