GandT I'm of the school of thought that you can't self-diagnose, as it's not just based on hair, eye and skin colour. My eyes change colour all the time. Based on self-diagnosis, I was either a spring, summer or autumn. Also, the sub-diagnosis IYSWIM is also relevant. As a vibrant autumn, the more muted tomes just look sludgy on me.
I start teacher training a week on Monday, and have a sense of impending doom, so have been trying to nail a few wardrobe things. I actually spent some time yesterday morning trying different outfits on. It's such a women's magazine thing to do, but it really works. I've been doing Project 333 since Decembet, and now have a slimline wardrobe, which is working really well.
Couple of questions. What colour socks do you wear? Do you match with the trousers you're wearing, e.g. Blue trousers, blue socks? And where do you buy them?
Also, for those of you wearing golds and mustards, are they your two stars colours? I'm still apprehensive about them, as they're not colours I've ever worn.
My two star colours at 75% or more include chestnut, tan and coffee. Any ideas where would be good to look? I'm OK finding dark brown, but as others, am cautious of the poo look.
Re. Coats, I got a lovely grass green (two stars at 75% for me) wool coat off eBay. £12 and then another £12 for dry cleaning. I figured it was a low cost way to test it out. Darker browns and greens can look a little dreary and safe in the depths of winter.
