You seem like you’d look good in greens because of your reddish hair. I don’t know what season that makes you, but yeah. Greens. Oh, maybe a right color of purple. I bet you could pull off lavander, something I could never do.
I’m, according to that, a winter. I have yellow undertones and am a pretty dark skinned white girl , so I generally just aim for jewel tones. Bright pink, bright red, bright purple, bright green, bright blue. . . you get the idea. I can wear a dark burnt orange and look good (especially during the summer when I am tanned up), but I can’t wear light orange or yellow. Also, certain red look bad on me, as do dark colors other than black: plum, forest green, etc.
As best I can tell from that site, I’m winter (auburn/hazel), although the fact that the chart starts with a fashion choice seems to undermine its purpose.
I wear black. That’s pretty much it. The one or two non-black articles of clothing I have are costume pieces (though they are jewel-toned). I suppose that means I match my season, but I doubt it’s what the guy had in mind.
I’ve never been clear on if I’m a winter or a summer, but I am clear on what colors suit me. (For the record my skin is pale ivory with pink undertones, my eyes are green-brown hazel, and my hair is naturally an unattractive mid-brown which I dye strawberry blond.)
My wardrobe is almost all pink (every shade, as they all are extremely flattering to me), blue, purple, white, black, some greens, and dark (never light) grey. With the aforementioned exception for grey, I can wear both dark tones and pastels. There is also ONE specific shade of dark red that I can wear.
Otherwise, I cannot wear any earth tones (no brown, tan, yellow, orange, etc. of any shade at all, and no other reds). They wash me right out and I look dead.
I’m supposed to be a Summer (I’ve had my colours ‘done’) and I do tend to stick to the proper colours. I wish mine weren’t so wishy-washy, though. I’d really like to be a Winter but I guess I’m stuck with what I am.
I’ve never been able to determine wha season I am. Winter’s dark colors make me look like a ghost, summe’s pastels make me invisible, and spring and autumn’s yellow tones make me look jaundiced.
Those palette are all crocks. Created and propagated by magazines with perennial holes to fill. Like diet and excessive advice, they don’t care if there’s any truth to them as long as people read them.
