Dressing For your Skin-tone/Eyes/Hair

When I was younger and just getting into the world of fashion, I never realized how important it is to know which colors favor your skin-tone, eyes and hair. We can all agree that a particular color that looks great on one person, could make another person look washed out. These guidelines will help make your best features stand out, whether you have beautiful green eyes, or naturally tanned skin.

Dark Hair/Light Skin

If you have dark hair and olive skin, then the colors that look the best on you would be the royal colors. Royal blues, Royal greens, and any other color that is dark will help to bring out your hair.

Pale skin

If you have pale skin, you likely have blonde hair and light eyes. Bright colors will really help to bring out your features, try pastel colors and avoid the colors orange and black.

Red Hair

Red heads look best in autumn colors; oranges, browns and other earthy tones. Stray away from black and white, these colors will not do anything for you.

Freckles/ Light Skin

If you have light skin and freckles, you should wear light colors like yellows, greens and blues. Avoid colors like black and white that will only make you look washed out.

All Skin tones/Features

Some colors can work for any complexion and features such as egg-plant, true red, idian teal and mellow rose.
