Colleen said when she was reading the Renaissance Summer description, it sounded like me. After reading it and thinking on the colors, it does "feel" right and may explain why I don't feel settled as a Spring or Autumn, but something in between.

I know you based the seasons on the celebrity - but he said in the book that the renaissance summer was almost more of a "softest autumn" - and based on the drawings I really see that - a almost autumn soft summer.

Am I taking it too literally?
I thought David Zyla so approach was to wear just the colours you find yourself in the book, or are there more colours and I just took it too literally? Lol
