Thank you for your helpful replies!!
Only recently have I learned about seasonal color theory, and I am looking to wear better suited colors. Typically I wear little color and stick to black, grey, and white.
I don't quite remember which colors I've received compliments on as I don't wear many of them too often! However, I have been told that golden yellow and cream do not suit me!
Since I wrote this post, I've been testing clothing and pieces of fabric next to my face. I notice royal blue and white really pop. White looks better than black near the face. The other day I tried on a navy coat, which was a surprisingly flattering color (I don't think I've ever worn navy, perhaps I should start!) Silver (especially whitish-silver) jewelry appeared luminous and bright. A big improvement to gold!! I will have to continue to try more colors.
When I wear color, I tend to choose muted spring and autumn tones. Only now I'm realizing that the cooler, clearer colors make my coloring pop and look healthy. I'm very glad to be learning about color seasons! I feel like this will make a huge difference in how I look and feel.
