I want to help you discover your Dominant Color Category so I can then recommend wardrobe items like scarves, blazers and floral prints for your unique coloring AND tell you what HOT seasonal colors will work for you. This post is for you if you’re wondering,
what is my Dominant Color Category?
…or if I told you which category you are at an event. Welcome!
This concept comes from my friend, cohort and mentor Shari Braendel‘s book “Help Me, Jesus, I Have Nothing To Wear!”
I highly recommend the book (I refer to it so often that it never leaves my desk) and I ADORE Shari. This is Shari with my mom and me at an event at ASU a few years ago.
The BEST way to determine your Dominant Color Category is to let me help you Discover Your Signature Color! When I email you your Signature Color, I include a link to the board for your color AND for your Dominant Color Category! Discover Your Signature Color right here.
DOMINANT COLOR CATEGORIES (now referred to as your Color Code)
I have a Pinterest board for each category that I curate on an ongoing basis.
I invite you to “follow” the board for your category.
There are six categories:
1. Light.
Naturally blonde or white hair. Fair skin tone. Light to medium eye color.
2. Deep.
Medium to dark brown or black hair. Medium to dark skin tone. Hazel, brown or black eyes.
The DEEP Pinterest board.
3. Soft.
Light to medium brown hair (or ‘mousy’ or ‘dishwater blonde’). Light to medium skin tone. Medium intensity eye color like hazel, brown, blue or green.
The SOFT Pinterest board.
4. Clear.
Dark medium brown to black hair. Very light or medium skin tone. Bright eye colors (green, blue or hazel) or dark brown.
5. Warm.
Red hair or golden blonde or brown hair with reddish highlights. Any skin tone, sometimes with freckles. Green, blue, brown or hazel eyes.
The WARM Pinterest board.
6. Cool.
Silver, gray or ash brown hair. Light to medium skin tone (often with a pink undertone). Blue, green, hazel or brown eyes.
The COOL Pinterest board.
