What colours would suit me?

Question

I have darker toned skin and I'm just wondering whether warmer or cooler tones would be best for clothes? Also, any specific colours and tones?

Answer 1

Id thik cooler tones.  They would probably pop out more.  Go for light blues, whites, greens.

Different shades of brown would probably look nice as well.

Bring one of your girl friends shopping with you!    They'll tell you what looks good.

Answer 2

oaky i have like tan/golden skin year round i'm not sure if thats what your talking about but even on darker too (idk what warmer or cooler tones are so i'll give you specifics) a light blue looks AMAZINGG i also love white (which is also easy to wear) i also think hot pink (not the trashy one) can look AMAZING if worn right on darker skin tones. i think you can wear almost any color unless if your golden like me yellow and orange are like forbiddon :D haha but if your darker they also look amazing. my ex used to always tell me he loved me in green so yeah i would go with brighter colors they'll look amazing and make you stand out of a crowd :D

Answer 3

Yellow! it looks so pretty and refreshing

my friend with skinlike yours has a yellow shirt and it looks so cute!

Answer 4

If your skin tone leads to a black-brown go with peaches, tans, pale greens, anything that will let the clothes and your skin pop.  If you mean more of a tan tan, then I would go with medium warm, but throw some cool coloured accessories so your not always in the warm and nuetral zone, hope this helps!

'Mustard' is hot this fall, and would look great with dark skin!
