Years ago, I read Carole Jackson's COLOR ME BEAUTIFUL, which was all the rage in the 80s and discovered that I am a summer. Mary Spillane's version (out of print) breaks it down even further: I am a COOL summer.
MsMaven,
As a teen, I knew that anything with yellow undertones totally washed me out. Now when shopping, I simply look in the dressing room mirror and know IMMEDIATELY if the color is flattering.
I have dark ash blond hair (my natural color!), fair Scots-Irish skin and very dark brown eyes. Teal, turquoise, purple are my best friends! Also deep fuchsia and blue-reds.
Thank you for posting the link. It will be interesting to analyze myself.
