taken care of.

I have a very autumn-y complexion...dark auburn hair and eyebrows and dark brown eyes with super-pale skin. so colours like plum, shades of green, rust, peachy pink, shades of red, and marigold yellow suit me...warm, earthy colours. I tend to mostly wear black, but I throw these colours in on occasion, to brighten things up.

colours I wish I could wear are mint green and ice blue. I also don't look very good in pure white.

Cold colours - blues, pinks, greens.
Black. And then for some reason red suits me too... but I'm not a fan...

Oh, and I've blue eyes, dark brown hair and fair skin with pink tones...

Nearly-black hair, brown eyes and fair skin, complemented well by cool-toned colors: black, white, blue, purple, emerald green...

It depends on your skin color. If you are really light, you want to stay away from light colors that will wash out our skin. Hmm, but now that I think about it, I'm black and know nothing about what I just said so don't listen to me. Just incase you're black too (don't want to jump the gun) bright colors go well with "our" skin. A color that pops is a great contrast on dark skin, earthy tones were in for us a couple years back, but now they're dull.

Coco Chanel said it best -

"The best color in the whole world is the one that looks good on you."

What color looks most radiant on you? Mint green is my color.

how that color looks on me... peach-colored clothing comes in a close second...

Emerald green, and a vibrant coral always look smashing on me. Which is actually quite interesting, since I refused to wear either of those colors until six months ago.

Oh, and I think it would be nice to mention what kind of skin tone we all have. That way, when there is someone with a similar coloring, we can get an idea of what sorts of colors we can experiment with.

I myself, am a warm beige.

I have this golden brown skin tone ... and light blue is MY color! The contrast is excellent .. makes me look more tanned and healthy ... lately I've been trying green and I wear white non-stop.

longlegsue · 19-07-2005

I'd say a deep red...more blue-red than orange-red I think. I'm fair skinned but not extremely pale.

Spike413 · 19-07-2005

Hmm, I've actually been told a few colors look well on me.

Olive green, cooler reds (think more blood than brick), orange and brown.

Luna · 19-07-2005

I always get compliments when i wear my celery green cardigan.... so i'm guessing this color looks good on me...

I think i look better in cool tones.. blues, aquas, greens.

Yppe · 20-07-2005

Blue, althought I don't know why it's not the colour I wear more, I think it's which best fits me. Also dark purples.

TheSweetest · 20-07-2005

white looks best on me. a lighter pink (i think) looks good on me. my skin is like a caramel color.

breathe0xygen · 20-07-2005

blues with a hint of green... navy blue too
