Getting your 'colours' done

Is their a way of working them out yourself?

Can't quite run to £99 at the moment but feel I'm wearing all the wrong ones and need a lift!!

Nope. You can try, but there's as good a chance you'll be wrong as right. There are just too many variables. I have two friends, all of use are very dark haired, brown/hazel eyes and medium/fair skin, and I am an autumn and the other two are a summer and a winter.

However, sticking to a limited palette will make things look better than lots of random colours.

(NB I am a consultant, so of course I'm going to say that, but I really do think it. I actually used to think it couldn't be that variable before I trained, but it really is!)

I think it's really difficult to work out yourself. I misdiagnosed myself as an Autumn but I'm actually a Deep Summer - would never have guessed but I did agree with the consultant. Prior to that I couldn't even tell if I had cool or warm colouring but I think I'm one of those 'inbetween' people.

I think you can - but maybe I'm just an easy one to work out - I'm a Winter - maybe it's more tricky if you're a Spring or Autumn...

I worked mine out with the help of a book years ago, then went to a 'colours' party and was told I was what I thought I was Smile
