colour me beautiful

Some years ago I had a colour me beautiful consultation and was surprised by some of the colours I was advised to wear! Leafing through the latest update of colour me beautiful made me again consider other options than my good old standbys and favourites.

According to colour me beautiful there are five key points that define a well-dressed woman. Your clothes should:

• complement your colouring
• flatter your body lines, scale and proportions
• be appropriate
• match your style personality
• look current

The book covers everything from choosing the right colours for you, size and shape, finding your style, hair styles, make-up and accessories and making your wardrobe work for you - including how to shop! It even tells you what and how to pack for a short city break  or a one week beach holiday - so no more bulging suitcases!

I particularly liked the section on how to wear black. For instance if you have warm tones, black is not in your colour palette but  can be worn if you have one of your best colours near your face.

colour me beautiful is a great book to dip into or consult before a shopping trip. If you find it difficult to decide something about yourself, use the book with a friend or partner and I'm sure you'll get some valuable insights! This book will give you the confidence to experiment, to find your style and maximise your best features. And makes a great present for women of all ages.
