WHICH CLOTHING COLOURS ARE BEST FOR YOU?

Everyone wants to look presentable
and that is why we spend so much
time trying to choose the right
clothes, the right hairstyle or the
right accessories. But regardless of
how perfectly well your hair or that
pattern suits you, not wearing the
right colors will make all your efforts
seem futile and in vain. By wearing
the colors that suit you, you can
make your skin glow; your eyes
sparkle and to a certain extent even
look slimmer. Here are a few useful
tips that will help you choose your
best clothing colors.
1. Choose the right colors according
to your hair
– Blondes look good with warm and
bright colors such as yellows, oranges
and rusts and also, tans and taupes.
– Brunettes look good in a wide
variety of shades such as greens,
blues, oranges, browns and pinks.
– Browns and oranges suit redheads
the best.
– Gray heads should prefer bright
colors like red, rose, plum and berry
and also jewel tones such as bright
blues, clear greens and bold golds.
Steer away from grays and pastels,
beiges and tans. Basically, go for
something that is bold and bright.
2. Find out your underlying skin
color
a. Pinch your earlobe and observe
the color for a few seconds. The
color that you see now is your
underlying skin color. Your
underlying skin tone helps you
choose the colors that suit you well.
b. If it is a blue or pink or other rosy
tones, cool colors will suit you best
whereas if you see peach golden or
other coral tones, warm colors are
going to suit you best.

3. Wear colors that give you a monochromatic feel

a. Yellows, primroses and creams suit

blondes

b. Chocolate brown for brunettes

c. Rusts and orange for redheads

A monochromatic or single toned

look is achieved when you wear

colors the same as your hair. This

will give you a taller and slimmer

effect.

4. Get professional advice

If you can’t seem to decide for

yourself what suits you, then it will

help to get some professional advice.

A professional will be able to tell you

what looks good on you and what

color palette you should stick to.
