                            Answers to Your Dressing Smart I.Q.

 

1.                    True.  You are enhanced by at least one shade of yellow.  In order for it to look great on you, the A clarity (the brightness level) must also be your best!  I'm certain many of you think I'm crazy but if you would wear just the perfect yellow for you, the compliments would change your mind.

 

2.                    False.  You are definitely more enhanced by either clear, bright colors, slightly toned-down colors or toned-down muted colors.

 

3.                   False.  The six Gentle and Muted Color Types should avoid wear the high-contrast color combination of black and white.  Black with light beige will look much more expensive.

 

4.                    False.  For many Color Types this is true, but for a Contrast Color Type the look is one of her/his best regardless of her/his height.  Her/his body proportions may determine where she/he places these bold patterns.

 

5.                    False.  Regardless of height, only Gentle Color Types look wonderful in small blended looking patterns.  Your height has nothing to do with your best pattern sizes C your body's coloring is the determining factor. 

 

6.                    False.  Shorter people can look as fabulous in the same styles as taller people.  It's getting the proportions right for your height and body that makes the difference.

 

7.                    False.  If you are one of the six Color Types that is flattered by clear, bright colors, they will make you look radiant whether your skin is pale or black.  If you are one of the six Color Types that is overpowered by bright colors, having a tan won't help.

 

8.                   False.  Only six of the twelve Color Types look stunning in pure white.  On the other six, it will appear inexpensive instead of fresh.

 

9.                    False.  No one is equally enhance by all shades of a color.  Usually one or two shades are far more flattering.

 

10.                 False.  As we age, It becomes even more important for us to wear colors and color combinations that help keep us radiant looking.  Do not retire into retiring colors unless you are Gentle Color Type and they just happen to look phenomenal on you.

 

11.                 False.  Our personality has nothing to do with what looks great on us C it has to do with what we like and the styles we wear.

 


12.                 False.  Wear flattering colors, in your best clarity, in great styles for you and you will look fabulous.  Wear the wrong clarity for your skin tone and you will appear to be a fuller figured woman who looks washed-out or overpowered not a smaller woman.
