Know your colours – which season are you?

The following is a mini introduction to Seasonal Colour palettes.

Colours are gorgeous when they have a natural harmony. If you discover how to dress in the right colours that work in harmony with your skin, hair and eye colour, people will see YOU rather than the clothes you are wearing.  A wardrobe of clothes and jewellery belonging to your colour spectrum, means that everything co-ordinates – they all match YOU.

 

Spring palette

  • Colours are tints (white has been added to lighten the pure hue)

  • Spring colours convey liveliness, sparkle and simplicity

Summer palette

  • Summer colours are cool, subtle, soft and light
