Me too!!

Don't know if it makes me look good, but I only wear black. Maybe some cold tones would suit me, I'm a 'winter' person: extremely pale skin (I 'glow' in the dark..XD) and black hair, dark green eyes. Quite typical Scandinavian.

I look best in most blues and purples. Peach, cranberry and dark red are colors that suits me. I cannot wear yellows or oranges - makes me look "sick". And the only greens I like and look good in are emerald green or a mint green - nothing inbetween.

I have no idea really. I have medium brown hair with a copper tint. Umm, medium to light skin? Really don't know. Green'ish eyes.

Any suggestions?

You and me both


I wish I knew what color looked good on me! I've been told I look best in earth tones, but I really don't know. I'm extremely pale (like, corpse pale) with dark blond/light brown hair and hazel eyes. I don't even know if my skin is warm or cool! I'm terrible at these things.

Jewel tones are my best, especially green/blue tones. Black and navy are also good. I don't think there's any colour I shouldn't wear, but those are the most successful, and in fact, my favourites.

Now now, I remember you looking quite lovely at the Texas meet-up! I don't remember what you were wearing, but I do remember that you have a wonderful smile!


I'm lucky in that there aren't a whole lot of colors I can't wear - nice, dark, pre-tanned Asian skin.
I used to wear a lot of blue, and now I'm going out and getting more colors, which has included an awful lot of pink and purple lately for someone who always considered herself a bit of a tomboy!

My best colors are emerald green, chocolate/brown, peach tones, and white. It just figures that these are some of my least favorite colors..

i remember - it was in the rust/orange family, wasn't it? similar to what you wore to our lunch w/Miss Mew?
strong colors are usually best for me, altho pastels are ok. i think this color blue is best, but i wear almost every color [don't have a great deal of brown or ivory/cream/tan but i do have some]. a good bluish-toned red is good on me, too. i'm also a winter, for the most part, so black is good.

That made me laugh. I am the same. Where are those beer goggles when you need them.


Other than that I am the only person I know whos best color is yellow. I once got a compliment on just a yellow T-shirt. It brings out my plethera (sp) of zombie tones. I prefer to think it is just my sunny personality?

well i have been told by a few i look good in black, if its smart dress that is, and i do like the black shirt and tie look for interviews etc. all my normal clothes are totally varied colours, i even have a few bright pink tops, and i mean bright!

but i dont think i really look good in any colours, but i do find that certain styles suit me better than others, i definatley look better casual than suited up.

designer stubble and a shaved head gives me the "bit of rough" look which suits me just fine, plus its easy to maintain!

Seen the lightest color of foundations? I'm generally one shade lighter.
Everything makes me look paler, which is the problem with most jewel tones.
I have a pink tinge to my skin, The palms of my hands are very pink. When My oldest ,was little she said "Mom you're pink just like a piggy".
I usually wear pink or blue.
