What's your best color?

I'm dark blonde with blue/grey eyes (they tend to change colour for some reason) and light skin. Cool colours suit me the best. Green, grey, petrol choclate brown (sometimes) and faded/sunbleached colours look good on me.
 
white and black... I like to pretend that I look good on pink and orange too :lol:
 
Red. <3
Well, I don't know if it actually looks best on me...but I know it looks good on me. & it's my favorite color too. :D
I also think white looks nice.
 
Teal and blue also I love gold, white, and off white beigy colors look good with a tan skin
 
I usually look best in "boring" colors like brown, navy, and grey. I do like green on me a lot, but unfortunately, I can't find anything in the right shades!
 
i'm not sure what colour looks good on me, but i wear a lot of neutrals (black, grey, white, beige/camel, brown...) and some jewel tones for autumn/winter and evening, and pastels for springs...(ok that's like half the colour wheel already lol).

I especially like grey, deep red/violets (maroon, burgundy, plums), blues (i don't think it's the best colour, but i have a lot of blue stuff).

i've been really getting into yellow about a year and a half ago. bright, cheery, but soft yellows. no electric/neon colours though. at first i thought it was a bad colour choice since i'm asian...w/ very YELLOW undertones in my skin already...
 
What season?

Hi!

I'm not quite sure what season I am. My favorite color has always been blue. I think I might be a winter, but I'm not really sure. What do you think?

Here is a picture of me.

I think you're a summer- mid tone cool colors are good, I think.

Winters look good in like hot pink, royal purple, black-

I think you'd look better in slate blue, lavender, grays, colors like that

definitly avoid orange, brown, yellow, and earthtones
 
can anyone help me figure out which season i am?

i have dark chocolate brown hair, green eyes and very fair skin.

i look best in black, dark brown, red and green.

I'm a dark-skinned black woman (coloring similar to Naomi Campbell, Gabrielle Union, Oprah Winfrey, etc). My hair and eyes are black. I have no idea if I'm cool, warm, winter, summer, autumn, or spring. Frankly, the categories have always confused me. :unsure:

I look best in slate blue (muted bluish-gray), rust, burgundy/maroon, and navy.

Gold jewelry is ok, but bronze and silver are better. Can't wear yellow unless it's mustard/saffron/honey. Orange is best when it's burnt. Most shades of green look good, from forest to grass. I look amazing in fuschia, but I usually only buy it in lingerie because it doesn't match my wardrobe. Pastels are generally a no-no (but some shades of pink and lilac are nice). Beige, taupe, and khaki are blah blah BLAHHHHH. True primary colors simply don't work.

Anyone know what this means? :lol:

In general, if you have black skin, you're a Winter. (There are some exceptions, but this is probably 95% true at least.) The fact that fuchsia is a good color on you would point to this.

One thing to bear in mind about CMB is that she "coordinates" the color palettes, leaving out colors that might look good on you, but wouldn't go with the color scheme.

I have kind of unusual coloring & am an Autumn. Chestnut (red-brown) hair, pale pink skin with freckles, brown eyes. Prescriptives calls my skin blue-red (cool).

My Mother is an Autumn as well, and she says her mother (a Winter) dressed her like a tree :lol: So she is not a fan of those colors, and really, neither am I. I wore them for awhile, and am kind of "over" them ... I do wear black despite what CMB says. It becomes a less friendly color as you get older, perhaps especially if it wasn't "your" color in the first place.

The major colors I really like and are good on me that CMB does not recommend are dusty pink, eggplant and other purples, and a muted robin's egg blue that I wore a lot in years past.

One of the difficulties with CMB of course is that there are whole seasons when "Autumn" colors are basically out. Then you gotta have a plan B :innocent:
 
I don't really get this. I mean I get the concept but I don't know how it works or how people can see what colors work or don't work. I choose things in colors that I like more than what might necessarily look good on me. Maybe I've been going out looking like a fool!

Can anyone tell me what I might be? People tell me sometimes that I am olive undertoned or yellow undertoned but I don't see it. I also like pink and aqua blue and theoretically those colors would be all wrong for a warm colored person like people tell me I am. I really like any colors but I generally wear mostly muted or neutrals, boring I know but they are the easiest to coordinate.:ninja:

My ancestors are Polish, Russian, and German and my hair is now bleached platinum blonde and ultrashort (Agyness style, or like Mariacarla's was). I am naturally fair but I can tan pretty well, I just avoid that.
TIA!:flower:
 
I have dark-blonde hair, green/blue/grey eyes and "brown" skin. I am norwegian, so my skin is not that brown, but it is darker than the girls in my class. I have always just been wearing grey, red, black and white. So I was thinking that it might be an idea to start wearing some colors. Any help? =)
