Light Spring palette: Best colours

About their colours
Light Spring's complexion is very delicate, so the idea is to enhance it and take care not to overwhelm it. That means they should avoid both very dark (black, navy, or coffee brown) or muted, dusty colours, as they would look tired, pale, and even sick if they wear them. They should also avoid strong contrasts between colours in the patterns or garments they wear, as they will disappear altogether.

Best neutrals:
  • Camel.
  • Khaki and taupe.
  • Stone.
  • Light navy and medium blue.
Other colours:
  • Warm and pastel rose pinks, from powder to view rose pink.
  • Blue greens that are light, like aqua, or emerald turquoise.
  • Yellow greens like moss or pastel green.
  • Vibrant blues like violet (for night) and periwinkle.
  • Soft reds like watermelon.
Colour combinations:
  • Periwinkle and powder blue.
  • Khaki or taupe with coral.
  • Camel and powder pink.

  1. Do you have any idea where I could possibly find the 'blue gray' dress from palette 1? It's perfect.

    I'm afraid it may be a bit more than you want, I'm afraid I chose these dresses based on what they looked like and not on what they were... If you tell me what attracts you about the dress, I may know about another. Hope this helps!!
