Color is one of the most important elements in your wardrobe and the choice of the right color can make it work for you showing off your complexion to advantage.
- Fair skin

If pink undertones to your skin, your evening colors: deep navy and sapphire blue with silver accents. And deep pine/hunter green with pale gold accents. Your morning colors would be crème gold with gold and copper accents |
If you are fair, you can usually carry off almost any color. You will look especially great with soft pastels and mid-tones. Peach, lilac, pinks, aqua, soft greens and medium range blues etc. are all good choices. Avoid too-dark colors; they might make you look pale.If pale undertones to your skin, your evening colors: deep magenta (not shocking pink) with tonal accents, burgundy with matte gold accents. Your morning colors would be pearl with silver accents.
If you are very fair, avoid very pale or pastel colors, for they can wash out fair skin.
- Wheatish skin
With that golden skin you can’t go wrong with rich jewel tones. Emerald green, ruby red, bright orange, rust, turquoise and navy blue were made for you. Not to forget, the basic black and white.
For golden undertones, the morning and evening colors: rich ochre/mustard with antique gold accents, deep saffron orange with copper accents, deep royal/ink blue with tonal or silver accents.
For olive undertones, the colors: rich maroon with gold accents, emerald green with pale gold accents, copper with copper accents.
Very pale or pastel colors can make tanned skin appear darker unless selected precisely to compliment the skin undertone.
- Dusky skin
One way to play up that gorgeous chocolate skin is to wear bright colors. Sunshine yellow, bright orange, warm red, magenta and bright blue should look great on you. Beige, taupe and white are also good options.
