Blue Grey

True Blue and You!

A personal colour analysis will enable you to decide on the exact shades of blue to wear for your colouring and could be the ideal Christmas present for women this year but as it’s such a key colour this season, here are a few tips to get you started.

Lights

The lights are the natural blondes, with fair skin and light blue, grey or green eyes. In general light to medium shades of blue are best for the lights. There is plenty of light sky blue about in soft cashmere sweaters which will suit your colouring beautifully but if you want a brighter statement piece go for a bright true blue, teamed with light greys and silvers. Avoid black with your blue as this will “kill” the look with your delicate colouring. Deep, royal blue is a little deep for your colouring but will work in sheer chiffon or silk.

Deeps

The deeps have dark brown or black hair and dark brown eyes. Bolds shades of blue are very flattering to their own rich colouring, much better than pastel blues which will drain them. If you are a deep go to town with royal blues this season. Large items such as dresses and jackets in true blue will get you noticed for all the right reasons! Team your blue with black for a strong, balanced look.

Warms

The warms have red hair tones, golden or fair, freckled skin and blue, green, hazel or brown eyes. Icy blues will drain them and these should be avoided. Bright aqua that has a warm undertone is one of the best blues that a warm can wear. Medium bright blues will work well but make sure the whole look doesn’t become too cool by wearing blue with cool greys. Instead team your blue with warm neutrals such as brown and oatmeal. If you have blue eyes a bright blue will really bring these out. If your eyes are brown you may prefer to add blue in smaller amounts, in a necklace, belt or boots for example.

Cools

The cools have ash hair tones including ash brown, blonde, grey and white. Their skin has a pink undertone and eyes may be blue, grey, green or clear brown. Most shades of blue, from icy to sky to cornflower to royal, look fantastic on the cools. They really can use blue exactly as they wish, in large bold amounts throughout an outfit or as an accent colour with silvers, greys, navy and black.

Clears

The clears have dark hair colouring, lighter skin and very clear blue, green or topaz eyes. Bright colours are fabulous on clears and really show off their bright, colouring. The bright, jewel-like blues of this season – royal, Chinese and true blue are perfect teamed with light or deep neutrals. The clear woman looks particularly stunning in shiny fabrics such as satin. Patent blue shoes and belt would be ideal accessories as would clear blue earrings or necklace.
