Thank you for watching! If you missed it, this one might be a good one to watch next! ❤ "Classics" I Won't Wear ---> kzfaq.info/get/bejne/f8-Xoqqks67WYXU.htmlsi=zBBNGvRW58T00jPy

The right colors will make you look healthier and younger while the wrong colors will make you look sick and tired. I joke that I have a couple of tops in my worst colors just to make people feel sorry for me if I am overloaded with tasks. It works!

Last comment. In my experience, if you are not a summer, pastels make you pale. If you are not an autumn, browns make you look sick and yellow. If you are not a winter, stark white or black will emphasize dark circles and you'll look terrible. If you're not a spring, bright, warm colors, like primary colors, will make you look red (all zits stand out).

Another benefit of building a wardrobe around your seasonal colors is that your clothes will all coordinate better.

In the Last 20 years i visited 3 colour analysts. They all had another opinion 😂 so now i wear the colours i always loved, feel great and got compliments

Our Mom treated my sister and me to a Color Me Beautiful analysis 40 years ago and I’ve always found it very valuable. It was tricky for the analyst because I’m so close to neutral, but when she put aqua, a pale, muted turquoise, on me, it was obvious to all that I am a Summer. They didn’t have the subcategories then, but I later determined I am a Soft Summer, from doing a bit of study. I did eventually drop two of the recommended hues, purples and grays, they seemed to wash me out and were difficult to style. Still, the analysis has guided my wardrobe selection brilliantly for 40 years, it was very worthwhile.

I think limiting colors in our wardrobe is key. I love having signature colors. Key colors that look absolutely fabulous and seek them out repeatedly. Makes it much easier to shop.

Years and years ago I had a professional analysis, and I have found I am happier in my colors. I actually looked up my consultant during covid. I found that she now works at a luxury resort setting where her husband is the historian. I found an article about them meeting. He spoke about noticing her immediately in her green dress. She had certainly used color to her best advantage. It was a great read, and i was glad I found the article that was a testament to the advantage of having your analysis completed.

My mom and I got the book “color me Beautiful” back in the late 70’s and did our colors back then-there were just four-spring summer fall winter. We got the fabric swatches and all-I will say it has never steered us wrong all these years. It was a great investment in Ourselves! ❤

Finally someone who is talking about color. I am so glad you have addressed this. So many influencers, lean toward neutral, neutral neutral. Thank you so much for this video. I am getting my colors done in person next week and I’m so excited.

I’m a spring…red hair, blue-green eyes, pale skin. The spring palette has always looked best on me. The startling thing is when my hair turned blonde after 50. Needed some tweaks with makeup, but my best colors were still my best colors. There are many channels that discuss “chic” and they always advocate black, white, grey, cream, camel, and navy as universally chic. But not everybody looks good in those colors. It’s nice to be the age where I’m comfortable doing me, rather than following a fashion.

I am an autumn but more specifically a blue autumn leaf. I got an in person color analysis with House of Colour in 2021. I love that I can ignore most clothing when I shop because of color alone. It makes shopping so much easier. I know technically it only matters what you wear close to your face, but it's better to buy everything in the same color family so that your entire wardrobe is harmonious and therefore interchangeable. Another gamechanger was my realization at 42 that pink makeup looks terrible on me. I thought I didn't like makeup, but now that I wear orange lipstick and bronze blush, I love makeup.

It took me 5 years to gather the courage to do this. I didn't know whether I was a dark autumn (hate the colors) or dark winter (love the colors), because I couldn't tell whether my skin was warm or cool. It was a huge relief to find out I'm a dark winter and get to wear as much black as I want 😆

I'm just so surprised how many fashion influencers have only done their colors recently. I feel like it was always the first step in determining your fashion style. I am so glad you had it done and you look great!

I had my colors done last year. I was draped as a light summer (with autumn envy) 😂. Seriously, almost everything in my closet was autumn colors! Best advice I received was that it can take a couple years to transition your closest to your season. The analyst also did my makeup which can be even trickier to get right.

Glad you had your color analysis done. Your love for bright reds and beige didn’t trick you. I’d be happy to hear you mention your season in your vids, when you present outfits, to make evaluations easier for your viewers. I hate when summer-type online influencers fill their closets with so-called “neutrals” like camel, beige, black and true white, while there are tons of other options that would need half the amount of artificial tanning, concealers and blushes. (Just ranting here because I can.)

I had my colors done in my hometown of Panama City nearly 40 years ago. (Color Me Beautiful.) I’m a winter, but it didn’t have anymore descriptors. Our analyst would use full scarves of each color in our family and you could really see what made you pop! I got “permission” to stop wearing beiges and oranges, which I never really liked anyway. We got a little plastic card carrier with each color and either one to three checks. (I need to dig that up!) it made a huge difference for my sister who dressed like our Mom, an Autumn. When our stylist dropped her in Winter colors, it was shocking how much better she looked. She said you could wear what you wanted, but you’d look your best in your best colors. For example, I love periwinkle, an Autumn color and it looks fine on me. I’d look better in royal purple, but you can’t always find the shade each season. Over the years, it can be frustrating when the popular colors are not your colors! Thanks for nothing Pantone. Sigh. Luckily, I look great in black, which is always in! As others have noted, if you want to wear something, like khaki which is awful on me, I can pull it off if I restrict it to pants or skirts. Same with muted or dusty colors. I mean I can’t wear black everyday! (Or can I?). I hope you find your color journey fulfilling.

That’s why I love silk neck scarves, they allow me to wear the wrong colors for me by introducing some of the right colors near my face, especially white. Dark and bright colors are both pretty bad next to my pale, Soft Summer, skin, especially black. But a black-on-white scarf, and extra cheek and lip color, make black wearable. It’s hard to have a good, classic wardrobe without any black at all, but I try to keep it to a minimum. Navy is “my black”.

I am 58 and had my color analysis done at a party in 1983. I have the swatch booklet to this day and I will have to say it is still accurate. I am blonde, but my eyebrows are very dark and she said I was a Winter which she said was unusual at the time, but told me that as I aged I might become a summer, which was also cool toned but not as harsh as we age. I find this to be true 40 years later!

I was always sure you were some form of spring. Me too. Here's how I test colors on myself... Where do my eyes naturally go: to the item of clothing or to my face? If the color is good for me, it's easy for my eyes to see my face. If the color is wrong for me, my eyes "want" to look at the clothing and not my face ( it's almost like i have to force my eyes to look at my face). Takes a little practice, but you'll see what I mean.

If you want to keep using the soft yellow top pair it with really bright high intensity color earrings, or very shiny pieces or a bright color neckacle, like a bib necklace, that should do the trick. Also if your skin is more towards the neutral maybe you can benefit from a flow pallette (16 seasons system) and maybe you are more like a bright wich is the fow between bright winter and bright spring and that opens up your pallette a lot more.

I’m a soft summer, and I was dressing as a winter until I was color analyzed so it was pretty life changing for me.

Dark Autumn here. I love the colors and I also love that I can borrow colors from my sister season, Dark Winter.

My coloring and yours are very similar and after much study, I had “self-diagnosed” as a Bright Spring. Thanks for the confirmation! 😂 Like you, I’m a bit of a neutral and once stamped a color professional who told me that I was “one of those rare people” who could pull off most seasons. (?) Yet, as you affirmed, it really IS the difference between “a slight flu” and standing out. 😂 Good job explaining it all in the video! ❤

I guessed you were a spring! I would love to get my colors done someday. Those spring colors look great on you!

Totally agree with this . I’m a spring too and I can see a huge difference in my face when I have spring color on. I look younger brighter 😊so it’s only spring colors now !!

I'm so glad you did this! Also, that top looks great on you!

For years and years I thought I was a winter but recently discovered that I’m a deep autumn. And that definitely explains why I never really loved those winter tones on me. My skin tone is light but warm/neutral. Now I buy things in the deep autumn palette and they look amazing on me.

i loved my analysis done by house of colours. Highly highly recommend them! So glad you did it anna!

I’ve always wondered about my colors ever since my coloring changed with my more mature years. It seems I am leaning towards bright colors for the first time in my life! This blows my mind and will be treating myself to a color analysis when budget allows. Thanks for the great, informative video Anna. You knocked it outta the park! ♥️

So very glad you had a positive experience! One BIG mistake is thinking your seasons change because your hair got gray. NO. Color analysis is how color pulls out hues in your skin. My background is art and design, and I taught Interior Design. I was a true ash blonde with deep green eyes and gray rims. I am a soft winter that looks horrible in caramel beige which I never liked for myself. I wear true white and bright winter white. I was one of the first coded and a model for a well known salon here. Most people are pulled to decorate their home in their season.

I always thought you should get one done! It can really take your fashion to the next level and enhance your natural beauty and coloring. I’ve been professionally typed as deep winter and I love wearing my colors

The thing is, there are so many different color systems. There's overlap in some of them, but some systems give pastels to winters and others give it to summers. Draping fabric in natural light is best. The system i was done with in the 80s was basically: winter is black and white and navy and other dark cool season colors, browns, creams, peach, teal etc are autumn, pastels, light grey, and "winter" white are summer, and bright, warm colors like melon, camel, aqua, royal blue are spring.

Honestly, I think you looked beautiful in all of the colors. All the effort you put in to be fit and put together brings out the natural beauty you have! 😘

So glad you got this done. It was very thoughtful of you to supply affordable options. I had a color analysis done just before Covid. After the consultation, I received a fan of colored cards and a binder with information about my colors. I am warm light spring that flows to summer. I really need to review that information! Thanks for the reminder!

Yes! I’ve been waiting for this video for a long time! Congratulations on knowing your results 👍

I had my colors done by House of Color back in January. Wow! What an eye-opening experience it was. I was surprised to see I am also a Spring! Bright and clear! It really has helped me shop better and now I love wearing my colors, makes me feel and look brighter. Can't wait to see all the same colors on you. Thank you for the great video!

I was a Color Me Beautiful consultant years ago. I enjoyed working with clients helping them to look their best. Imo, it’s a valuable tool and saves so much time and money. After I had my colors done I stopped wasting money on the wrong makeup and clothes.

Yea girl !! I have always thought you were maybe a spring ! Can’t wait to see

You definitely look better in brighter colors - I agree. That red that you’re wearing looks good. Ive also been getting into color analysis. I think I’m a dark winter.

Wow... Never thought about this but definitely going to try it. Thanks again for helping me step my game up!!!

I think the words that describe it the best are that you look washed out when you're in your wrong color palette. That's what I noticed about myself too when the color is wrong. That's the first thing that comes to mind: This washes me out.... The biggest place where I've noticed all of this color scheme stuff is when a woman wears a red lip. That red lip HAS to be the right one or it will RUIN the entire makeup look. For me, I only look good in Brick reds or mauve reds. No orangey reds, no pinky reds and in most cases even some blue reds don't work on me. Mauve under tone red looks best and on the blue reds it depend on how fair or tan my face is. A Red Lip HAS to be the right one to look good! :)

That was really helpful, Anna! I recently had mine done, and although it wasn't a revelation as I'd first had them done years ago in the early 90s, it was more nuanced now than then, as you found out! It has been helpful, although the challenge is then to find garments in "your" colours that you actually want to wear!

I love your cropped reddish orange jacket! Very striking!

Thank goodness you did this! I watch all your videos and kept wondering which season you were in!

I was leaning more toward winter brights for you but I definitely agree that the Spring colors are your jam!

I just had mine done in July. It's the most interesting thing. I was just as confused as you, and was often wearing all the wrong colors. For one, I kept leaning toward warm greens, because my eyes are hazel green. But in that lighting with a professional, it was SO obvious. I'm a True Winter for sure. What was interesting was the realization that while dressing for special occasions and speaking engagements, I always reached for those True Winter power colors. Instinctively, they made me feel more confident. (I was also delighted to hear my type gets to keep black! lol) Definitely a recommended experience!

Anna wear exactly what you want and the colors that you love, you look beautiful in all of them.❤

First of all, I want to say I really enjoy watching your channel - you are very natural and have a great sense of humour. Now I wanted to comment because I am so happy you had a colour analysis done in person. I am a colour analyst myself and went through quite a journey before becoming an analyst myself. Literally every result I had done online was different - I was soft cool and deep in one and Jeweltone summer in another - neither of those colours worked for me. Then I had a colour analysis in person and I am a Bright Spring just as you. While I was trained to provide colour analysis online I don't do it because I simply believe that we cannot rely on the accuracy of a photo plus the effect the colour has on our skin is so subtle and nuanced, we simply cannot see it from a photo. I would recommend you to ignore your True Spring result and just go with the Bright Spring palette - it is a wonderful palette and you will absolutely shine. I look forward to more videos seeing you wearing your colours ❤

You can still use things that are not in your color family by adding a bright scarf or sweater/jacket. I was always a winter when I had dark brown hair, now I have let it go white, gray. I put on a gray shirt and wow, I could wear a different color. It is always an indicator when you naturally gravitate to certain colors that you feel good in. That strong blue color looks great on just about everyone. Going out in natural light is an excellent idea. I have gone out thinking I was matching my blacks only to find my shoes were navy - ugh. I had two pair of matching shoes, one pair navy, one black. Yes I did go out wearing one of each!

I am certified with The Outfit Cutator, the same one you had done in person, but I have been doing the service online for years. She did a great job! I love your explanation and you look absolutely stunning in your spring colors 💕

Totally agree with you being a Spring. You look stunning in the bright, saturated colors.

I've never really thought about this, but it's very interesting and makes so much sense!

Wearing the right colors is important. I do this as part of my practice, and cannot believe how many people think this is unnecessary before having their colors done. I’m glad you did this video❤

No wonder you rock those red and orange outfits like a boss

So worth it. The big but is who is doing it. She has to be good. It is not a cookie cutter tool. Everyone is unique and finding the uniqueness. I have found you come from one color group (season) but can have influences of other seasons. Add to that your best patterns, textures, and combinations and you develop your own uniqueness. A lot to it but so wonderful.

This is crazy… I was trying to find an app to help me figure out what colors look best on me Friday. Love this!!!

This was a really helpful video. I had my colors done when I was 18 back in the early 1980s (I am a winter) and I have found it useful my whole life. Even now that I have some grey hair it still seems to be true. I can’t wear yellows or oranges at all. I look sick in them. I have not heard about the bright vs true vs neutral sub categories of color palettes before. That was very interesting. I think the color analyst did a great job on you. You do look great in bright spring colors. I agree that the pastels aren’t as good on you compared to brights. I really like the on screen comparisons you showed during the video. It was easy to see the differences…and I don’t think color analysis is an easy thing to see for most people. So, great job on teaching us the differences. This was well done ❤

Color analysis has changed a bit in the last few years. Along with many others, I bought the Color Me Beautiful book (I had it in 1981 when it came out) and learned that I was a "Spring" which was pretty enlightening. This year I learned that the 4 seasons have subseasons so that was a new development. After doing some research again I came to the conclusion that I am a Bright Spring like you (it is easier for us to wear black than it is for True Springs) and that makes a lot of sense and helps with shopping now. Things do keep evolving!

I had my colors analyzed back in the late 70’s and was told then that I was a Spring, before there were subcategories! Later on I began to doubt my undertone and bought more Summer colors. Now that my hair is graying, I find I need to rethink my values again! With online advice groups, people tell me I’m a “Light Spring”-which means the original analysis might have been right all along 🤷🏼‍♀️. The problem is finding autumnal clothing in light Spring colors without looking out of place! That is the real challenge-especially living in a warm climate, as you know! (I’m in Houston, transplanted from the SF Bay Area as you will note from my Warriors t-shirt 😂!)

I love this; I still have the original "Color Me Beautiful" book from the 80's! I could never fully figure out if I was a summer or a winter because I felt like I could get away with certain colors from both palettes - until I went gray! Now I know I'm Definitely a Winter. Clear, dark, true, bright? Who knows. I don't really concern myself too much with that. I do know I look best - like you - in the bright, saturated hues. Also, I have to say it was very confusing when I was younger because I did have some red highlights in my hair and a hint of green (hazel) in my brown eyes - so the prevailing wisdom would say you're a warm season - but I look sickly in those colors!

Spring here, did this in the 80's and it has saved me a ton of money over the years.

I always thought you were a Soft Autumn. The ginger, persimmon and caramel colors you seem to be drawn to really enhance your natural beauty.

Thank you for saying it is not easy/obvious. I pegged you as Spring from the initial clips / swatches, but it is a lot easier to step back when it is not yourself! 😊

I knew right away at the beginning of the video that you were a bright spring. That colour looks amazing on you. I am bright spring as well- lovin the bright oranges and corals

The red you’re wearing looks fantastic on you! It’s your power color! I can’t tell what color your eyes in your lighting maybe green or brown but not blue. I think that’s why the blue shirts didn’t go with your coloring. I did an online color analysis during the pandemic and for $20 I felt she did a good job and I emailed her questions for further qualification. I wanted to do it again in person but saw that the professional charges $300 so no thanks. I totally believe in color analysis and think it’s a powerful tool for dressing.

I wonder how much we compensate for the “wrong” color with make up?

I'm a bright winter, once I figured that out, my wardrobe just made more sense!

I love the colours you are wearing in the video, obviously you look good in the spring colours. If you pair the pale blue with light warm accessories it would look more in harmony and I think you could pull together a great outfit. I agree colour analysis is a tool and it's great if you want to keep a small well coordinated wardrobe. I'm a deep autumn although my overall look is softening as i age. Great informative video!

Hey Anna, I had it done a few months ago. Im a neutral spring, which is warm, light and muted. It really helped me, I was wearing a lot of black and was tired of it. I always learned from people around me that some colours like blue and red would look good on me and it never felt right. And now I know why. My skin tone is neutral but I'm leaning more on the warmer side. I actually love a lot of the new colour options I got from the analysis. So I loved the experience, it makes me want to experiment more. It was so cool to see what the colours did to my face. Very helpful for make-up aswel. Thanks for the video, for me it was very clear what looks good on you 🙂

I'm so glad you posted this. I think I'm a winter of some sort. I'm definitely going to be looking into someone who does this locally.

This is literally what I’ve been looking for…. Had no idea what this was called or that there are professionals that you can hire to do this for you. Because let me tell you, I am lost when it comes to knowing what looks good on me period! Thanks for this video!!

This is so cool! I think you look pretty in all colors, Anna! I've been told I look best in royal colors. I feel the worse in soft colors, like peach, lavender, light yellow. I think I'll try the $15 option to see what they say. Thank you for the tips!

GIRL that red dress!! Stunning!

I loved this video! You actually seem to be able to pull off a lot more colors than most. I had my colors done by Color Me Beautiful about 40 years ago and I did find it very helpful, even though there weren’t as many sub categories back then. I would like to revisit this since my coloring may have changed a bit as I have aged. I am a Summer (which, I don’t know) but I still feel great wearing black! 🙂

I figured yours out pretty quickly when I saw you in several key colors. I’m a Bright Spring as well. I watched about 8 of Sarah Ryan’s videos, and her info helped me refine my color palette. I had been told I looked best in Brights and Darks, which was pretty close. I can borrow from Bright Winter also.

Thanks for sharing...I think I'm spring too..but maybe more on the neutral side. I too don't suit light colours as much. Trick is to wear the colours that suit close to your face or if not wearing your colours by combining earrings or necklace or scarf in your colours will help take focus.

I had my colors done in January in person and I am a soft summer. It was worth the $$$ to really know what colors I look best in. The other thing it showed me, was that my hair color was all wrong (too warm), so I toned it down to a darker ashier blonde and it has made such a huge difference in how my face and skin look. Thanks for all your videos!

Sometimes I find it so easy to know who is which season just with a short observation, but springs make me work harder everytime to spot the season. I will doubt myself over it a dozen times even when I believe oh its spring. When I am back and forth over which one, it ends up Spring. Spring has an amazing colour chart much like a floral garden full of surprise, obviously its why it is Spring!

From the videos in the beginning with the instagram filters I immediately knew you were a spring!

The wheel shown at 3:42 is different from another 4-seasons-with-3-subgroups framework that I know (from Sarah Ryan and from Colour Analysis Studio - both highly recommended to watch, especially CAS uploads a LOT of sessions with clients). In the wheel shown here the order of the seasons is like in the calendar: at the top right quadrant there is spring, and in clockwise order then summer, autumn winter. In the other system (that I find better) *summer and autum swap places* in the circle (and there is a good reason for that). The subgroups in that framework are positioned as follows (starting in the top right quadrant and then in clockwise order). _Spring Bright_ Spring Light * _Spring Warm_ Now comes the difference to the system shown in this video (the position of autumn and summer is swapped), it is not the order as per the calendar but _Autum Warm_ Autumn Deep * _Autumn Soft_ _Summer Soft_ Summer Light * Summer Cool _Winter Cool_ Winter Deep * _Winter Bright_ - the circle closes here, winter bright and spring bright meet at the 12 o'clock position. Even within a season most people look better in the colours of 1 or 2 of the season's subgroups and THEN they usually *can borrow colours from the OTHER season that is close* (see italic, that neighbour is a subgroup from another season, in half the cases even with the "wrong" hue. Hue is warm or cool. And the middle subgroups (that have only neighbours from the same season) can borrow from the opposites ( see * ). IF a person looks good in the colours of ALL 3 subgroups of their season, then they are a TRUE sping, summer etc. That is rare btw. In which case it is unlikely that they can borrow from outside their season. But plenty to chose from as they have all the colours within their season. Again a difference to the system shown here: in the wheel at 3:42 "true" is depicted as the middle subgroup of each season. In the other system "true" would ENCOMPASS all 3 subgroups of a season. (So there are differences for the names of the subgroups and what qualities are attributed to that subgroup). The middle subgroups are spring light / autumn deep / summer light / winter deep - and those 4 middle subgroups can be combined in 2 pairs, which share a characteristic that can be also very important for how a colour looks next to the face of a person. The autumn deep colours are so deep & dark that hue (cool or warm) becomes insignificant. So these persons normally also can wear winter deep colours and look really good in them even though they are the wrong hue. Likewise the characteristic "light" can be almost as important as the hue (cool for summer light or warm for spring light). So they can wear each other's palette well (at least a part of the other subgroup of the foreign season) "True" in the other framework adds even more nuance - it means as opposed to the people that can stray (and cannot wear all subgroups of their own season equally well). Which might explain some confusion, if people are fairly sure what season (or even subgroup) they are, but KNOW they look good in a few other colours (that should be wrong for them). The borrowing thing (shared characteristics) explain that. And the other trait always has to do with intensity / contrast. The italic means subgroups that are neighbours - and these two can borrow colours from each other even though they are from a different season. There are two pairs of subgroups (deep winter resp. autum + and light spring resp. summer) that are opposites. Again they can borrow colours from each other. In the wheel / system I prefer high intensity types are on the top and below is „low intensity. Bright means the pigment is unaltered the „pure“ colour resp. only mixed with other clear colours or with white to create a pastel. Winter types have good natural contrast in their face (incl. hair). Spring types have also good colouring and natural contrast in their feature. Spring types need the warm hues and are not quite as intense as winter, but usually they have a clear and well defined - sometimes striking - eye colour (as opposed to the soft grey-green-amber, the not quite clear eye white and the ashy hair colour of summer types for instance). Spring types can have rosy cheeks and lips, have sometimes golden hair (or a nice brown, as opposed to ash brown or ash blonde. Or sometimes the hair is red). Often they have a bit of a tan, etc. As for soft or muted - that means that there is a bit of grey or brown in the colours of the palette. The colours appear toned down, dusty, soft - and they are right for the low intensity types. Every colour can be toned down when you mix a bit of dark pigment into it. So they are „softer“. You can try that out with water colours or with an online colour tool. And in the system I prefere on the left there are the cool tones, whereas on the right side there are the warm hues. Where the seasons meet each other - the subgroups that are neighbours are usually a good fit to borrow colours from. (this is why summer and autumn swapped places, and the subgroups are arranged in different order). Bright spring can stray into the neighbour bright winter: wrong hue (not warm but cool) - however the intensity and clearness of colours is ideal. Winter normally is too intense for summer. However, if the characteristic cool is very important some colours from cool winter will look good on cool summer (and better than a lot of summer colours from soft or light summer). A man that is a warm spring choses warm autumn colours for his work wardrobe. (One of the partners of a color analysts of Colour Analysis Studio. The middle subgroup in every season has no neighbours that are not in the same season - but they share important characteristics with the opposites These are two pairs. Deep Winter and deep Autumn are opposite to each other. Deep is almost more important as the hue (cool or warm). There are 3 subgroups per season and if a person belongs to ONE subgroup (the other 2 subgroups work kinda but are not spectacular) then one can most likely also borrow from another season. That could be even a warm or cool season. TRUE spring, summer, ... are the more rare case when ALL 3 subgroups of the season work equally fine. Within the seasons there are still some (substantial differences) - and for most clients 1 - 2 subgroup of the "right" season will still work better. Take for instance bright ! spring. That palette would even include neon orange or yellow. As opposed to light spring - still clear colours (no grey or brown added) but in a pastell. And then there is WARM spring. Warm spring types would not look good in most of the bright spring colours - but they can very well borrow from the neighbouring autumn subgroup. Which is warm Autumn. As Anna can borrow (some colours) from bright winter - it means that for her the characteristic _bright_ (bright spring, bright winter) when it comes to having a flattering colour next to the face. So a part of this winter subgroup palette will work for her - but not the others (deep winter will certainly not be good, and cool winter will be Meh as well)

Even the light colors you chose are still “clear.” The pastels you should stay away from are those with grey/muted tones. But a clear pale blue or yellow still works on you!

🥰 Anna...you're so pretty in your colours. Thank you for sharing your results 👗👠💄

You definitely look best in bright colors! So do I. People have criticized me for wearing them and even acted like I don’t know how to dress, in the past, but I was analyzed and I’m between Light and Bright Spring. Warm is my tertiary characteristic, because I’m also Warm-Neutral. It was a validating experience. I guess I did know what looked good. I think some people just feel bright colors are “too much,” or they don’t work for them, so they assume they don’t work for anyone. I purchased many muted clothes to try to conform in my lifetime, regrettably. Now, I wear them when I want my doctor to take my illness seriously 😂. My favorites Bright Spring palette is My Color Style. I think you would like it, considering the shades you choose. I am glad you have the confidence to rock your colors. You look gorgeous in brights!

👍 well done I had a colour analysis done when I left school 😊 40+ years ago and I still have and use my little book of colour swatches 🎉 if you're wearing the wrong shade of blue simply add a scarf or blazer/ jacket of the right shade of blue (hey what are) it will work a treat "i promise" 👌

You look amazing in that red dress!

You're right. It is complicated! I don't look good in pastels either and much prefer brighter colors.

Love this for you! So helpful.. I would have guessed you were Some kind of spring but it is always tricky to just guess 😅 I am a summer. Love your channel!

This subject has always interested me. It is complicated but worth learning about to help spend your clothing budget more efficiently. Thank you.

I went to a professional color analyst about 3 weeks ago. I decided to go because I was born a strawberry redhead, but then stopped coloring my hair. To my shock, my gray hair is pure pale blonde!!! No roots, no brown at all. I defintiely needed help learning how to be a blonde. The lady I went to is an experienced professional. She did the draping and showed me differences, side by side, which was a huge help. It's not cheap, but I for sure will save a lot of money shopping for clothes and makeup. To me it is very worthwhile. And I'm a Light Spring! In the COlor Alliance system, I am a Light Sedona Spring.

"Still confused? Me too!" --- That got me :) Great video!

Thank you for sharing! I didn’t know about the TikTok filter and found it! Confirmation that I’m a light summer.

Excellent and informative video - thanks, Anna! I vote for a bright and bold couple's fashion video with you and your hubby! 😉

I always thought I was a spring until a friend with more training told me I was a deep autumn and to please not wear bright orange ever. Again. She was right and now I stick with muted, deep colors.

I could tell right away what you were because I am exactly the same. When I was younger people would always guess me to be a fall but that was just because of my brown hair and eyes. When I started to have my hair highlighted very similar to yours it became very clear that I am a spring.

I had my colors done 40 years ago and it helped me shop better. I don't need to look at the things that I don't look my best in. Do I buy colors not exactly in my pallette? Yes, as you said, they are acceptable. I am also a true Spring and felt you were too for a long time. Thanks for this video!

Always thought you were a spring! Had color me beautbook 30 years ir so ago, had an analyst confirm me about 20 years ago! Great video today, thanks!!!

I haven't had it done professionally but have learned that the ultra saturated cooler shades make me look like I have the flu which is the opposite of what I was told as a teen. I learned this by purchasing a really pretty sapphire wool coat and anytime I tried to wear it, it looked really off and friends asked if I was feeling ok. After that, I realized that if I want to wear those colours, it's better to incorporate them into my wardrobe as shoes or a bag so they are further away from my face.

It’s so worth it. I had it done for free in my color theory class in college & I was the 1st up. When she held up gold around my neck, the class went ewww & when she held up the silver, they went ahhhh. I’m a true winter.

Anna, this interests me a lot! I would love to get a color analysis. I think that is so interesting that you had one done. I’m sure you learned a lot. I would do the same and go shopping after my analysis too! 😆
