What to Wear Wednesday: Color Series Begins!

You asked for it, so now you're getting it!

We had so much fun learning about the Fashion Personalities that now I'm going to bring you a series on

 COLOR!

As I was thinking about which one to start with I received an email from someone and because of her email, we are beginning with

COOL...baby.

Before we get to her email, I want to take the time to explain the COOL category. See here's the thing. Many of you are already gray...or silver....or white haired....but you color it up, right? And for many of you, that's a fine thing to do. But then there are some of you who struggle all the time just trying to KEEP those grays hidden.

(If you THINK this COOL section is NOT for you....please keep reading....because one day you MIGHT need this info...and perhaps like the woman who sent me the email, it's for you now, but you don't THINK it is..ha!)

When it comes to color, remember, the BEST COLORS for you to wear for your clothes and your makeup is determined by your

DOMINANT COLOR CHARACTERISTIC...that is, what is MOST dominant about you when you walk into a room. It has to do with your skin, your eyes, and your hair color...typically, your NATURAL hair color....but in most/many/all/some cases you don't know what that natural color is anymore...hint hint..smile, smile.

So let's go over it.

You are COOL...if your MOST dominant, outstanding feature is your gray or silver hair. You might have pinkish skin tone to go with that hair (or you might not) and you may have blue eyes (or you might not.)

You see, when you have GRAY or SILVER hair, THAT is what is MOST dominant about YOU. Therefore, it really doesn't matter what your skin or eye color is because when you walk in a room, your HAIR  is what others will see first on you. And because of this,

YOU MUST DRESS TO COORDINATE WITH YOUR Gray or Silver HAIR!!!!!!

If for you, you are having too much trouble coloring your gray hair, then you might want to consider going all gray...as in the case of the woman I'm featuring today. (Not every week will I feature a real live woman...but in this case, her email to me was just so timely I had to include it.)

Here's her email:

Dear Shari, This is Tamara...No doubt you remember me from the Girl's Getaway Cruise, but just in case, I am the Creative Memories Consultant that was appalled that your assistant suggest I stop colouring my hair and celebrate my natural "greyhood". Well... I took the plunge and am now officially grey, although I wouldn't really say "grey", but rather white/silver/blue grey,

AND I AM THRILLED!!!

Everyone, and I mean everyone,

says that they love it on me

 and a few even said that they were willing to give it a try themselves!

I am finding that my clothes look better on me, my make up is more attractive, and I feel really good about myself!

So thank you (and thank your assistant, Renee!). I have attached a picture for you so that you can see for yourself.

TAMARA: As a COOL!

Now, would you like to see what Tamara looked like BEFORE she went back to her natural hair color??????

Of course you would!!!!

Now you tell me, which way do YOU like her better???

I know, I know, isn't the GRAY hair AMAZING on her??????

I mean, she's a beautiful woman no matter WHAT her hair color, but the natural gray just makes her look pretty darn sexy, too!

Here she is with some friends:

Pretty hot mama, wouldn't you say????

Okay, now here's a pic of the color swatches for a COOL:

 

I know it's a little hard to see here but it's at least a sampling. The best colors for a Cool are anything with a blue undertone....so that means NOTHING with a yellow undertone....okay, so what does that mean?

GOOD Colors: Blues, Pinks, Purples, Rose, Black, Gray, Charcoal, Greenish blues, White, Silver Accessories, Zebra Print, etc.

BAD Colors: Yellow, Browns of all shades, Beiges, Tans, Gold Accessories, Leopard Print, etc.

Got it? So what do you think of Tamara? Pretty neat, huh?
