When it comes to personal style, nothing is more powerful than dressing in a way that complements your natural features. Rather than chasing fashion trends, aligning your wardrobe with your inherent coloring — skin tone, hair, and eye color — can transform not only how you look, but also how confident you feel.

One timeless and insightful approach to achieving this harmony is the seasonal color analysis, a method that groups individuals into four categories — Winter, Summer, Autumn, and Spring — based on your natural coloring. At the heart of this method is one key distinction: undertone. Your skin's undertone can be either cool (blue or pink-based) or warm (yellow or golden-based), and recognizing which you have is the first step toward building a wardrobe that enhances your natural beauty.

• Winter and Summer types have cool undertones. Winters typically have high contrast features — think dark hair, fair skin, and striking eyes — and suit bold, icy colors like black, navy, white, and jewel tones. Summers, on the other hand, are also cool but more muted, thriving in soft pastels, dusty blues, and rose tones.

• Autumn and Spring types have warm undertones. Autumns shine in earthy, rich colors like olive, rust, camel, and deep greens. Springs are warm but lighter and brighter — they come alive in coral, peach, ivory, and turquoise.

Dressing in line with your seasonal type doesn’t just enhance your appearance — it minimizes the need for makeup and will make you look your best. You’ll find that your best colors naturally illuminate your face, diminish shadows, and make your eyes sparkle.  Interested in knowing what your undertone is?  And how you can recognize your best colors?  Join us on a Style & Shopping evening.
