How am I an Autumn?

  • Autumn is one of the two warm seasons, so individuals who are autumn have warm undertones

  • Autumns look best in deep warm colors

  • Autumn’s best colors are typically browns, orange undertones, or yellow undertones.

  • Autumn is the season with the most earthy tones

How can I be more than one season?

  • It is typical for there is one season color palette that is the main, or first season. A second season palette may then be introduced, as it compliments the individual

  • You may have a neutral skin tone, rather than completely warm or cool.

  • You may have a combination of cool and warm features, when this is the case different colors and undertones will compliment you differently.

  • Power colors (best colors) are seasonal agnostic, so warm vs. cool aside, that color will compliment you. 

  • If your skin gains color from the sun, then your color palette may open to colors that you don’t love when you have less color.

This may sound crazy, but from doing color analysis on hundreds of women I have found that certain personality traits are largely aligned with winter.

  • You are inviting and make people feel safe. You may lead with open acceptance as well as a baddy boss type. You are probably grounded and giving. 100%, your skin type is what we all want.
