I’m a true/warm spring ( only recently had colours done).

Size 12, 5ft 6, 32H boobs, generally hourglass shaped. Mid 40s

I’ve a winter wedding to attend for a close family member - December in a castle.

Any suggestions of what might work? I’m new to the whole colours thing which is proving a bit of a challenge.

Perhaps you could say what sort of colours and shapes you like to wear - as we don’t all subscribe to the ‘having your colours done’ philosophy.

And do you have a budget in mind?

This is really tricky. I don’t have a style as such. Which is how I’ve ended up having my colours done.

I probably lean towards navy/gray, but that’s the wedding party colours so I probably need to avoid them. I think I’m quite pale skinned, so darker colours tend to make me look a bit washed out, I wouldn’t naturally lean towards a wine or emerald type colour, more neutrals.

I’m happy in dresses, don’t love my upper arms, and I don’t really want to spend more than a couple of hundred all in.

This might be fabulous on you:

(Even though not following the usual ‘rules’ for your particular shape.)

I like that, and it could be worn again!
