Know your skin tone

Colours such as stone, black, navy, and true red are some examples that tend to work on everyone, no matter what their skin undertone is.

Coordinating your wardrobe

To guarantee you always have something to wear, choose items that are easy to mix and match.


For a better understanding of colours and how they work, red, yellow, and blue are the primary colours, followed by secondary (a combination of primary colours), and tertiary colours. (a variety of primary and secondary colours).


Complementary colours on the colour wheel are directly opposite each other. For example, red with green or yellow with blue. Analogous colours are where two or three are matched that are immediately next to one another on the colour wheel.

Choosing colours that really suit you can be tricky. People often have the propensity to either choose colours that they simply like or to select "safe" colours that may not be the most attractive.


Experimenting and knowing which colours suit you best will help you look sharp for any occasion. Wearing the right tones and purchasing clothes that are a perfect fit can affect more than your looks, how you feel, and what others think of you.
