Summer Colors: Light Blue

Light, breezy blue; tropical turquoise, and bubbly aqua. The light shades of blue evoke summer like few other colors. I picked 10 random celebrity women wearing some shade of light blue. See if you can pick who looks right and who looks wrong before reading the analysis after the photos. Summers and Winters will glow [...]

Summer All-Stars

Since we’re in the middle of summer, I thought I’d make a post about Summer All-Star celebrity women. That is, summer women wearing summer colors and looking fresh. Summer is the season of cool-skin undertones and light hair. Don’t feel left out if you are not blonde! You do not have to be blonde to [...]

Excerpts from Beauty and the Bath (the bold print emphasizes what I believe are good points to remember; italics are my own notes): To compliment their skin [...]

Summer

Summer people are those who have a cool skin undertone with light-colored hair. Cool pastels as well as vibrant colors in cool tones look good on Summer people. Excerpts from Beauty and the Bath (the bold print emphasizes what I believe are good points to remember; italics are my own notes): Your color palette for [...]

Spring

Spring people are those with warm skin undertones and light hair. Light, airy, and muted warm colors makes Spring people glow.
