I have been trying to figure out what season/colours I am for the past year, but somehow I struggle. I think part of the problem is that I dye my hair blond and perhaps I have not chosen the correct blond for my skin tone ... I think the colour black suits me and white is better then off-white, but beyond that I am lost :-)
Hi, it is tricky. I was lucky to have a colour assessment done (a gift from my DH) and it was enormously helpful. Black isn't a great colour for me, cream is better than white etc. you don't have to rule those colours out but I'll wear my black coat with a burnt orange scarf as an example. However, I was in my late 30s then and I know things change as time goes by - exactly for the reasons you suggest like change of hair tone etc. Sarah Liz did a whole set of posts on this topic - they were brilliant :)
