"How to Make the Most of You!"

Confident in Colour !

Print this page

Hello again,

What sort of colours do you usually wear?

 

Many women opt for black because they've been told

it's slimming.  And yet, did you know that very few people

are flattered by wearing black?

 

Just one look at those "catwalk" style dresses that the

celebrities are wearing for film premieres or at the Oscars

will tell you that colour can be very flattering if worn well.

 

Did you know that wearing the colours that suit you could

completely change the way you look?

 

Depending on your skin tone, hair and eye colour you could

be one of about six dominate colour types?

 

Just consider well-known celebrities such as Catherine Zeta-Jones,

Julianne Moore, Jennifer Lopez, Kylie Minogue, Elizabeth Taylor and

Courtney Cox Arquette to see how different skin tones and hair

colours combine for very different looks.

 

You can find out more about your own dominant colour type from

any one of the Colour Me Beautiful books which you can find online

or at your local library. Why not get together with a friend and try out

different colours held close up to your face to see which suit you best.

 

Take time to discover what suits you - this can make the difference

between walking out each morning feeling confident and beautiful,

rather than dowdy and boring.

 

The secret is that people should see YOU first and not the colour. 

 

The good news is that it's easy to add colour to your wardrobe with

accessories, you don't have to start from scratch!

 

Knowing what colours suit you will save you a fortune - no more

"bargain" buys which get thrown out unworn after a few months,

and you'll be able to save time when shopping knowing which shades

and colours suit you best.

 

All the best,

Jen Carter
