Clothing Colors That’ll Complement Your Skin Tone

The color we wear greatly affects how we look.  Although we have certain colors that we wear more often than others, sometimes we also have to consider how  colors complement our complexion.  That being said, here are guidelines that you could use to help you choose the right colors for your skin tone.

1. For dark skin tone

Pastels to rich shades look best for gals with dark skin tone. For instance, royal purple, plum and yellow. White can also look flattering on you, depending on the shade of white. Steer clear from brown and black, though, as these colors won't be as flattering as the other rich colors.

2. For medium-light skin tone

Girls with this kind of skin tone should stay away from brown, orange and pastel shades because they can bring out gray undertones, which could be unflattering on you. Instead, stick with brighter and deeper hues like those that resemble precious gems like the color of this lace dress in the picture below. The blue, red and green families are also flattering for medium-light skin tones.

3. For those with fair skin.

Earth tones such as the shades of brown and green look gorgeous on you. Like the medium-light skin tone, jewel tones can also flatter your complexion. Stay away from shades that are too light or too bright, such as neon colors, as  can clash with your skin tone. Black and white can make you look pale as well.

This guideline is not a hand-set rule. If you want to wear any kind of colors, feel free to do so. After all, these guides are  only to give insight on how to make you look more flattering. Anyway, regardless of what skin tone you have, you can always make it an asset by dressing to compliment it. 

Happy Styling!
