![]() ![]() It is always good to try and match your browns to either your pink undertone of your skin, or your hair. It is really important to get mink and cocoa brown with a pink undertone - and they are quite hard to find! If you are on the warmer side of the season you may find these very flattering. Many people recommend cocoa browns but these really have to blend with your skin tone or they can look yellow. For some Cool Summer clients navy is their only neutral. You can wear virtually any navy as long as it is not too vivid or has a very red undertone. Slightly lighter steel blue, or in summer go slightly brighter with slate navy - a great summer tailoring colour. Starting with the deepest navy I call galaxy which again may be too dark for the lighter Cool Summer. I find this so attractive on Cool Summer that I even recommend lighter shades of silver lilac and hint of pink as options to white.Īfter greys, the next most logical place to look are blues. Your pink/lavender undertone looks amazing with lavender greys and greyed pinks. If you have green eyes look to green greys such as wedgewood grey or north sea green. If you have blue eyes, look to dove grey and blued greys. Instead of black you have dark grey which is as dark as you should go, and if you are on the lighter side of the palette then already too dark. Starting with white and your many greys - a neutral that is very present in your eyes and as the gentle softener in all your colours. This means that my neutrals include a few unusual options that you may not have thought of when you initially think about neutrals. I have spent years trying to find the ten perfect neutrals for each season - neutrals that will support the colours in each palette and suit your undertone colours in your skin, hair and eyes. It’s easy to get carried away and forget that lots of their clothes in the wardrobe - especially for Cool Summer - will be neutrals. However - when clients come for a colour analysis the last thing they want to look at (or to be fair that I instinctively want to spend a lot of time on) are the greys, navies, beiges and whites that they feel they already have in their wardrobe. They are certainly worth investing time and money into getting them perfect. ![]() If you look at how much each item costs per time you wear it - a good neutral piece should be pennies. Neutrals are probably the most important building block for your wardrobe, and the pieces that are worn the most. ![]()
