Before I start, my dear friend, tell me honestly how to spell this word? Is it color or colour? Or one of them is British spelling, the other American? Doubts like this are definitely a struggle for a non-English speaker. But let me stick to the prettier version – colour. So, what colour clothes suit me best, you ask?
Ah, languages, languages… But you know what is an international language? COLORS! (or colours ;)).
Beautiful seasons
Maybe you’ve heard about the theory that women’s beauty can be categorized into four categories. Everything depends mostly on three factors: skin tone, hair color and eyes color.
This theory will be able to answer your question – “which colour clothes suit me best?”.
I am personally not that strict with that – I think there are hundreds and hundreds various beauty types and all of them are equally fantastic, but still, finding out which season you are the closest to can make it easier to pick the color of clothes that suit you the most.
So there are spring, summer, autumn and winter. Still, sounds better than type A, type B and so on, doesn’t it? π
Let’s find out which season you represent so we can expose this gorgeousness (is that a word even? Well, now it is!) with the right colors.
What Colour Clothes Suit Me if I Am Gentle and Sweet Spring
Spring ladies are so cute! The skin tone of the spring is warm, almost golden – if your a spring, you are the true queen!
The range of spring hair colors varies from medium blonde through golden brown to – oh I love this name so much – strawberry blonde. Isn’t that sweet?
Spring eyes are usually green, blue or hazelnut. See? I told you – you’re gorgeous!
Here is my friend Lauren who is a fantastic example of how beautiful springs are:
Ps. Do not ask me which beauty type her husband Jeffrey is haha
Now, what colors are the most suitable for you if you are a spring just like Lauren?
Since your undertone is warm and you have this magical sprinkles of the golden paint our majestic Creator painted you with (even if you are not tanned currently, then believe me, there is pure gold in you). Again, look at Lauren π Even not tanned like on her wedding day, she glows.
Plus, now we also see that Jeffrey is a summer, but his beard is stubbornly autumnish. π
The colors that will suit you best are the warm and gentle colors. Do you see how this navy blue looks great on Lauren? Exactly!
Now, you are probably scratching your head, thinking what ARE the warm and gentle colors and how to recognize them. I am perfectly aware there are warm and cold categories, but I would not stick to them that stubbornly – colors are the matter of feelings too! For example, some shades of green are rather cold, but for me any shade of green feels warm.
So, trust your feelings about colors and you will train your intuition like this. But of course, I am here to help you! That’s why below you will see the exact palette of best colors for spring – just so you can start in the precise place π
As you see the colors that will look the most fantastic on you are warm greens, shades of yellow, basically any bright brown and peachy/strawberries pinks. It already feels like the spring!
What Colour Clothes Suit Me if I Am Strong And Majestic Winter
Winter ladies have this wow kind of beauty. It is so royal and majestic with the cold skin tone shining bright. Yup, that’s one of many God’s masterpieces.
When it comes to winter’s hair, it is usually in a contrast with the pale complexion – dark chocolate, raven black or aubergine black – I am not sure if the last one is actually a real hair color, but hey, since the strawberry blonde is we can just as well have aubergine black π
Oh wait, wasn’t it eggplant? Can somebody call the English Language Police – the crime against clear recognition of what is a British and what is an American word has been committed AGAIN! 😂
Continuing π The eyes of a winter are green, blue or intensely gray.
Meet my sister, Marta, a beautiful example of the Winter.
Marta has a very bold beauty – full of contrasts. Like the Disney’s Snow White! But, just so you know the difference, my sister would never let a mean lady kick her out from the house – if so, she would be the one kicking the Disney villain out π
If you are winter just like Marta and Snow White, then you know that silver looks amazing on you. Yup, that’s exactly because you are the princess of the Highest King π
So if you still wonder what colour clothes suit me best, go into colder colours.
Plus, let me tell you, nothing will look as good as confidence on you. I mean, look at Marta, doesn’t she look like a movie star? π
But what colors other than silver will look the best on you, princess? Bold and contrast ones! As you see, Marta is wearing black and she looks fantastic. By no chance I could convince her to wear fuchsia that looks great on winters. But hey, luckily the color palette suitable for Winters is pretty wide:
High contrast are ruling here! There are few pastelish shades if you do not feel comfortable with the bold shades, but hey, the world belongs to the courageous ones!
What Colour Clothes Suit Me if I Am Joyful and classic Summer
Summer is out typical Barbie that came back to grace recently. Bright hair, cold skin tone with the pinkish accent and blue, green, grey or hazelnuts eyes.
Summers are just so beautiful and they certainly have the wow effect. They’re shining with their joyful beauty wherever they go. So, if you are Summer, remember – you look wonderful!
This is my mother-in-law Gabriella. She is Summer just like you.
The colors that will expose your beauty are… just think about Margot Robbins and which colors she looks good in π
But seriously, pastels are your best friends. Any woman can look great in pastels, but especially you my dear Summer can use one word answer to “What colour clothes suit me best” – pastels!
As you see, majority of the palette is covered with pastel shades so pick the ones that speak to you:
These bright, pastel crayons will expose your beauty to the next level. There are few slightly stronger shades, but generally, being a Summer you should become besties with pastels π
What Colour Clothes Suit Me if I Am Warm And Magical Autumn
Pink cheeks is something that many Autumns have just like the warm undertone with golden or peachy shade. The hair is usually nutty, red or ginger. You remember Anne of Green Gables? You know, Anne, not Anna? Wasn’t she such a ginger beauty!
Eyes of Autumn are rich and warm, hazelnut, goldish or with green and grey accents. I love this! The beautiful aura of autumn is visible not only in her hair and complexion, but also the shiny eyes.
Autumn is a fantastic beauty type and consider yourself gorgeous if you are one, too.
Guess who else is Autumn? Your favorite blogger, me π
Yup, I have nutty hair, but lately I’ve got to appreciate the ginger undertone that is hiding in my “crown”. Have a closer look!
Also, see with what kind of admiration I’m looking at you? Another beautiful autumn – you’re stunning, my sister.
I was told I look so fresh and beautiful in typically autumn colors – bottle green (oh my, I hope it is the right color in English), crimson, mustard. Eh. These shades are certainly beautiful, but they are not me, you know? I mean, look at them – if you are autumn, these warm Octoberish shades will truly expose your beauty:
These colors are fantastic and if you are autumn, this palette pretty much answers “What colour clothes suit me best”. But as I said, when I found out they are my colors, I felt… sad. Which leads us to probably the most important part of this article:
Let the color speak for its wearer
I intended for it to sound like a wise quote, but I’m not sure that I’ve succeed. Please, tell me it has at least a little bit of wisdom in it π
What I mean is these suggestion above are certainly the great started points to answer your question “What colour clothes suit me” and I guarantee you that you will see the difference changing the shades of colors that you wear. But I do not want you to compromise your uniqueness! Let me use my own example:
As I said above, the colors exposing my beauty the most are autumn shades. And yes, some years ago I could say that part of my personality was toned, melancholic, maybe even rainy. But ever since Jesus came to my life, I discovered that hey, I am energized, overly excited and yup, kinda crazy. I honestly do not know about any toned color that could express that π
So breaking the rules I just presented you, I started wearing colors that screamed “Marysia!” – intense blue, taxi yellow, fuchsia and so on and so on. Yes, my skin glows better in crimson. But my soul glows better in vibrant colors.
You know best which colors are representing you and even if they are with contrast to the ones that suit your beauty season the most – who cares? You can mix them, play around. Colors are for us, not all the way around!
