Choosing the right colors for your outfits can be transformative! It will not only enhance your natural beauty but it will also boost your confidence. But how do you know which colors flatter you the most? Well that is the question, and I’m here to guide you through it. Here are some essential tips and tricks to help you select the perfect hues for your wardrobe. Plus, learn how my virtual color analysis service can make this process easier and more accurate!
Understanding Your Undertone
The foundation of choosing flattering colors starts with understanding your skin’s undertone. Your undertone can be warm, cool, or neutral, and it influences which colors look best on you.
Warm Undertones: If you have warm undertones, your skin may have a yellow, peachy, or golden hue. Earthy colors like reds, oranges, yellows, and warm greens will complement your complexion.
Cool Undertones: Cool undertones often have a pink, red, or bluish tint. Jewel tones like emerald green, sapphire blue, and amethyst purple, as well as cool grays and whites, will enhance your natural coloring.
Neutral Undertones: If you have neutral undertones, you have the flexibility to wear a broad spectrum of colors. Both warm and cool shades can look good on you, giving you a versatile palette to work with, however there will be some colors that really brighten your complexion and make you glow!
Use the Vein Test: Look at the veins on your wrist. If they appear blue, you likely have cool undertones. If they look green, you probably have warm undertones. If you can’t quite tell, you might have neutral undertones. See image below.
Tips and Tricks for Choosing Flattering Colors
Test with Natural Light: When trying to determine which colors look best on you, always do it in natural light. This will give you the most accurate representation of how the colors interact with your skin tone.
Wear Your Favorite Colors: Think about the colors that you naturally gravitate towards. Often, these are the hues that make you feel confident and look vibrant. There’s a reason why you choose these colors!
Experiment with Accessories: Not ready to commit to a new color in your wardrobe? Start with accessories like scarves, shoes, or jewelry. This allows you to test out how certain colors make you feel and look without a major investment.
Consider Your Hair and Eye Color: Your hair and eye color also play a crucial role in determining which colors will look best on you. For example, brunettes often look stunning in deep jewel tones, while blondes might shine in pastels and lighter shades. Also take into consideration the contrast between your hair, eye color and skin tone.
Use the Seasonal Color Analysis: This method divides colors into four palettes: Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter, it is based on warm or cool undertones and light or deep shades. Find out which season you belong to and stick to those palettes.
Keep the Occasion in Mind: Different settings may require different colors. For instance, bold and vibrant colors might be perfect for a social event, while muted and neutral tones could be more suitable for a professional setting.
If you had a color analysis done in the past, consider having one every 3-5 years to keep up to date as we age our color palette changes. While these tips and tricks are helpful, there’s no substitute for professional guidance. That’s where my virtual color analysis service comes in!
