Sewing

DARK DENIM MOTO JACKET


I chose very dark blue denim so that it reads almost black, but unlike black denim would avoid the problem of how hard it is to match blacks.  Also it could conceivably go with navy or grey of T2/4.

Color Me Confident

"Hi gang. Check out this link (below) for some great ideas from a book called "Color Me Confident". I noted many colors can overlap into palettes making it confusing, or be close to your palette so they will look ok on you but not your best. By sticking to the "palette" first and then looking at the additional colors listed made it less confusing for me. For example, being a Bright Spring=clear+warm+ light (in that order), so I can wear all clear, then the additional warm/light colors listed. These same additional colors are also listed for Light Spring (that's why I thought I was light spring) but not all of the colors in the Light Spring Palette look my best, ruling it out as my season. Also, if I look at the warm and light as primary palettes, I can't wear all of the colors listed. In the clear palette, I noted the neutral colors that overlapped into the palettes: cool, warm, light and deep because Bright Spring is a neutral season. It helped me to make a list (my secondary T2 lol) and compare."

playing on the T2 / T4 dichotomy of rules and challenges, it could be fun to explore all the rules and try them out playfully and also remember they are all voluntary, meant to enhance your well being and self expression, and our selves are so extraordinarily complex, that simply harmonizing with our coloring might not be the be-all-end-all, anymore than harmonizing with our personality "type," but trying out different looks, like chords in songs

How systems differ? Entrance

All of these systems differ slightly as to how you access them:
are they fully online, are they in print, are they in person consultation?
are they minimal cost? close to free? moderate cost? spendy?
are you the expert or does the system have a guru? or are their many trained consultants?
